Finally!!!

So no one told me that in order to lose weight I needed to give birth to a baby. You see over the past 10 years or so I've gained over 30 lbs. Not cute. Currently, I'm down 20 lbs from my pre-pregnancy weight. Yay me!

Now, one of the things that I didn't do after all these years is get rid of clothes that I hadn't worn in over a year. I read that as a tip to help streamline your closet and purposefully ignored it b/c I was determined to get back into my old clothes. Okay, don't worry .... I'm not that much o a hoarder. I did give away a bunch of clothes (and even shoes!) over that past few years.

Anyhoo. There was one dress in particular that I never wanted to give away. A black wool crepe sheath dress that is the perfect LBD for me. Love that dress. Bought it when I was still working at Banana Republic and all their clothes were still classic and timeless. It's a size 2 dress and I dreamed of the day when I could wear it again.

Well, dreams do come true. After 11 years, I was FINALLY able to put that dress , zip it all the way up and even sit down comfortably. Now, I may not be able to eat a very big meal. But I'm okay with that! Haha! Now, if I could just lose 5-10 more lbs I'd be super happy. Actually, if I could just figure out how to get rid of my double chin, that would be a real dream come true.
sorry for the messy bathroom :P
