Good Morning FS! I hope everyone is waking up happy and rested. =)
Things are better with my GF. We had an open and honest convo and I think it really helped. We both have things we need to work on, and we are going to really try and work on them. Neither of us want out, which is so great to hear! We have a very strong foundation and just need to work on some stuff. I'm still sad about how it all came down, but I will get over it i guess.
I need to get some new clothes. While I'm VERY happy all my clothes are big, I'm having bad anxiety about getting the clothes. Me and dressing room mirrors don't like each other AT ALL. SO we will see. I think i can make the clothes I have work a few more weeks. I know i will have to get new jeans soon, though.
We are going to the Indian Summer festival today. I have a real love for native american indians and all their customs. It should be fun. =)
I had mint oreo frozen custard last night and let me tell you, OMG was it good. Do i feel bad about eating it? HELL NO. I also had battered fried shrimp and fish. I don't feel bad about that either. The shrimp were really good but the fish kind of sucked. I hate when that happens. Today I'm going to make sure I eat before we go to the festival. They have many yummy things there that I just can NOT eat. I'm 5 freaking lbs away from 299 and i can NOT go back now. I have been waiting for this for many months. It's a HUGE deal for me. When I get to 299, I will have lost 76 lbs. That is HUGE!! It's kind of daunting to know I still have 100 MORE to lose, BUT, after losing that initial 76...i really KNOW I can lose the next 100.
That's all I have for today. I hope everyone has a great and healthy weekend!

I fully understand how you feel on the clothes shopping thing, I am going to wait as long as possible to go (especially since money is tight). I actually thought about taking my jeans to a tailor, thought it might be cheaper, lol. Have fun at the festival! And best of luck to a quick 5 lbs loss and hitting 299 ^.^

You are doing great! It's good that you are planning ahead so you don't put yourself in a situation that you would be eating something that would only set you back! Keep it up and have fun at the festival and have a great weekend! ~Donna

I'm glad to hear you and your GF are back on good terms... I know stress always derails my efforts to lose weight! Hopefully school is going well! Buying and wearing clothes that fit well actually makes me feel smaller because I can see how much smaller I am! It's totally worth it! Just go and buy 1-2 items and you'll find that you feel great when you wear them and you'll have motivation to buy more!

Dawn- I am sooo happy to hear that you are happier!! And in a better frame of mind. Have you ever done online clothes shopping? You may or may not have luck with it, but at least you can be in the comfort of your own home while you try them on :) have a good time at the festival!

So glad things are working out for you, sometimes we need these little upsets to clear the air, it sounds like you are going to be on a better footing. Wow 5lbs you will be there very soon, I thinking it is a good idea to buy a couple of smaller clothes just to make you realize where you have come, you deserve it. It also help you get down under 300.....keep up the good work and enjoy your day.

Thank you everyone! I've been sorta MIA the last few days. We had to move the computer out of our bedroom and onto our new computer desk so it has been out of commission for a few days. i will catch up with journals and such tonight. Thank you all for taking the time to read my journal!
