I was reading the blog the other day and read this ".... I was still reeling from being told I’m a 42DD!........Gone are the days of 38C." This was after a measuring session in July 09
Gone they maybe but not totally out of the equation after a remeasure and a new size of 36FF. I was in the same changing room as last time and while the lady was out, I checked my 2nd set of (back) boobs - and I am happy to report they are gone!! I am even small enough to fit in one of the larger shock absorber bras - I'm a level 4. I don't know what that means but I feel like I've passed a test, a milestone at least.
I'm starting to think of myself as being thinner. Although, I still find myself classing myself as plus size. I went to an Ann Summers party over the week end and very nearly didn't go, what would they have to fit me? and how can you look sexy in a tent anyway?
However I went and I'm glad I did because we had such a laugh and thats what I would've missed out on. We played games, did quizzes, sang a very rude song with questionable hand actions and generally had a right old giggle. I didn't drink as I was driving so I had water in a wine glass, though people presumed it was white wine and I sat next to the pretzels which I knew I wouldn't eat. Reflecting back I realized that I didn't want to go because of my size and when I think of all the other things I've not done, and places I've not been it makes me quite sad. Things are changing and I need my mind and my perception of me to catch up.
I've set a new goal, when I'm 13 st, we as a family are going ice skating, something I used to do every weekend down Kensington Ice Rink when I was kid, I can only go in one direction but the fun we used to have - well its one of my goals and I'm on my way to achieving it.
