My 10yr High School Reunion!

It's over! The 10yr High School Reunion I've been planning for most of the year was on Saturday, and it was great! We ending up with a rather small gathering, so I changed the venue to this GORGEOUS restaurant called Ellacure in Bruce (visit it if you are in the neighbourhood, you won't be disappointed!) and had a wonderful time catching up with old friends. It was wonderful to not only get compliments on how I looked and on my little red dress, but to just feel normal around the people I always felt humongous next to. That was a truly wonderful feeling. To not have to worry about squishing anyone in photos, or that I as popping out of my hold-everything-in underwear (which still didn't eliminate the tummy rolls), it was just plain good. :)

I even made an event of it at my WW weigh-in! The white T-shirt with the black print (left hand photo) was a freebie I got, size XXL. That picture was taken the last day of high school, and I'm wearing my daggy freebie shirt, cos honestly, I didn't have a lot else to wear! It was even too small to fit over my hips, so just kind of bunched around the middle. Anyway, I wore it to weigh-in, over the top of my reunion dress, and under my coat. Being very brave, I went up the front of 30 or so men and women, and took of my coat, and showed my photos of me 10yrs ago and my size XXXL school jersey (Which was also uncomfortably small. I think it was the biggest size I could get though. And it came down to my knees...). Then, while they were exclaiming about that, I showed them what I was wearing that night the reunion, and it was GREAT! I've never had so many cat-calls in my life. *blushing*

So that was my weekend. I am paying for it on the scales this week, eating 5 meals out in 3 days will do that! However I'm getting on top of it before it becomes an issue, and I'm looking forward to getting my lifetime membership in 3 more weeks!
