Talking Stop Scale Watching

I am down 13 lbs which I reached Friday of last week. I kept getting on the scale two or three times a day, hoping for more to just melt away. When it didn't occur I became discouraged and put the scales away. When I began this WOE on April 17, I was wearing between an 18 and a 20, so I always bought bigger clothes, even 3x, what difference did it make, I was big and the clothes were big. Well, I've got a special event to go to on Saturday, my daughter is graduating from college and I wanted to look nice, so I tried on an outfit that I bought in January, size 20 and it was tooooooo big.... so I went to the store a place I just hate going because of the size I wear and started trying on clothes. Well, I now wear a 16, oh my god, I felt soooooo good I was dancing in the store. I never thought that I would see a 16 again. So the moral to the story is stop watching the scale, continue to LC, and don't forget if your not losing you may still be losing inches. Yippee!!!!!!!
