111. Rejoice.

Trying to Show my Pink Strands Encouraged by Susie.
I had fun out on a girl date with my bestie Susie. We talked about it all including my body image. She laughs at me when I think I won't fit through a space. She thinks I'm silly when I think I won't fit her sweater. She had to tell me at least 3 times I'm small. I insist I'm not small. She insists I'm smaller, "or if you don't want to call it that your body is different."

I'm stuck in the I know I'm not skinny mentality. I don't want to get comfortable with my size since I'm just starting to fit a size 14. Maybe that's me being hard on my self or thinking I'm still a size 28. Susie made me stand back and look in -- well, I have changed a lot and I'm just not used to it. -- Our talk really helped. We also came to the conclusion that I was holding on the my old clothes for security. So I'm getting rid of it by the end of the month. If I don't have any buyers, which would have been ideal, then I'm donating to the women's shelter. 

Hanging with Susie was nice. She reminds me to be 
bold, encourages me to do more and believes 
I could do it all. 

To great friends.
