More NSVs
 

So, I've lost 32 pounds in the last 6 months. And I retired. And I'm going to two BIG weddings in the next two months (both of my kids are getting married!).

NSV - I've had a LOT of fun shopping for dresses. One dress is a size 10 and the other is a size 8! And they aren't baggy, only-touch-at-the-shoulders styles either!

NSV - Even shoe shopping has been fun. I haven't fully lost a half-size, but almost; everything fits better and my feet don't look like they are stuffed into the shoes.

NSV - Shopped yesterday for "foundation" garments (i.e. underwear and a "shaper"). I got a real bra fitting, since I really needed a new size. I had taken a guess (38B) and it was wayyy too big. She fitted me with a 34D! She said, "You thought you had little boobs on a big body, but you've got big boobs on a little body." She said "little body"!!!!! I did wind up telling her that I'd lost weight recently, but she hadn't known that then.
Putting the girls in a bra that fit felt like I had brand new boobs!

NSV - I felt so good with my new boobs, I let the bra-fitter talk me into a free makeover on the other side of the store. I walked out feeling great. My DH verified that I looked like a million bucks!

Interestingly, the bra-fitter was very overweight and when I mentioned that I'd recently lost 30+ lbs, she said something like, "you need new pretty things after all that hard work to lose that weight." I said that, indeed, I need new things, but that it wasn't that hard since I did it by low carb eating. I was about to say I eat steak, eggs and bacon, fajitas (no tortillas)..., but she quickly said, "Oh, that would be hard for me. I've GOT to have my bread."

Live well.

Congratulations it must feel wonderful, I'm smiling at your story :)
Sounds like fun! all that retail therapy as the new you -- well done.
