So, my mom is getting married in May and she has been looking for dresses for her daughters to wear. At this point, I'm the only one who still needs a dress. I have been dress shopping for her, but the dresses are too expensive, don't fit, or my mom thinks I look frumpy in them. A week ago was my mom's birthday and we were talking about what we could do about a dress for me. Then, my mom said something that completely offended me. "Maybe we should go look at Lane Bryants and try to find a dress there." With a shocked look on my face, I replied "Mom! I am not plus-size!" To make things worse, my sister Jaci piped in: "Oh, you're not plus-size? I thought you were." I was so humiliated and upset that my family actually thought this of me. Yes, I have gained a lot of weight since being with Phil- I know that too well, I have to look at myself everyday- but, I am NOT plus-size! I have only went up one pants size and my shirts still fit me, so that's not an issue. So, I stormed out crying and was miserable the whole night. The next day, I looked online for programs to help me lose weight- and I came across a free 12-week weight loss program. I am totally for it! My mom's wedding is in 10 weeks, so I think this will be a perfect program for me. Hopefully, it works out! My goal is to lose 20 lbs. Wish me luck! (This is the most recent picture of me that I could find. I want to go from that to how I looked a couple of years ago.)

I'm sorry that happened. That's terrible! But that's cool that you found a good program. My family is doing a biggest loser competition and so I've started working out and eating healthier. It's hard to lose weight, I've decided. I hope you have success in your endeavors.
