NSV - Tried on my prom dress, 16 years later

So after being overweight for a few years, I decided last May to make a change and to go back to liking my body. Since then, I’ve been working out almost everyday in my basement with basic equipment such as a mat and a few dumbells. I’ve also been doing CICO pretty religiously and I’ve been having great results thus far, losing 35 lbs and maintaining it.

Last week I saw my mother in law and she mentioned that she found some pictures of my boyfriend and myself at prom. She told me she had the feeling that I now look in an even better shape than back then (that was 2005).

Then today I got a couple new pairs of jeans and I had to order a size 8 because after going down a couple size, I had to go down again. That’s when I realized that this is the size I was wearing back in high school and I thought: oh wow, I’ve really made huge progress! ... Then I though of my prom dress!

Well, I did put it on and... it fits even better than when I wore it at prom 16 years ago! That completely blew my mind! I mean, that dress is completely useless since I won’t wear it ever again but it my boyfriend and I had a great laugh! He just couldn’t believe that I had managed to go from a somewhat unhealthy lifestyle, aggravated by mild depression, to now being in the best shape of my life and fitting in my old prom dress. Funny how life can be!
