I’m now just as thin or thinner than I was in high school.

I went home for a BBQ my parents were having for Labor Day. As 90% of my clothes are too big now, I love raiding my closet at home to see if anything that didn’t fit before fit now.

In a pre-coffee haze, I decided to try on some dresses from high school. My senior prom dress was TOO BIG, and some dresses from my junior year fit perfectly. My sweet 16 dress almost fits and it definitely will by my goal weight. RIDICULOUS.

The only dresses that didn’t fit were my freshman and sophomore year dresses…because even though I’m thinner, I don’t have a little-girl body now. That’s a good thing!
