If you don’t have Greek yogurt, any plain (unsweetened) yogurt will work just fine :)

In any case, it was really fun to go shopping and see what fit. I’m now out of the women’s section and into normal petites, which is a triumph, although I’ve grown so accustomed to the standard women’s section styles that I’m probably going to miss them. (Lots of fun, colorful tops that flatter a larger bosom.)

I do hope that what I write can help someone somewhere, or at least get conversations started. For the longest time, I had stopped truly blogging, mostly out of fear. My visit to New York state and, specifically, Eleanor Roosevelt’s home, made me really want to change that. My fear wasn’t doing anyone, especially myself, any good. I have been so happy since I started writing my thoughts and feelings and opinions again. I doubt I’ll ever have as profound an impact on the world as Eleanor, but her example inspires me.

I was going to post on your last entry, then pulled back. But basically, you were writing about loose skin, etc. I can tell you that some of that can be mended through exercise. You know what has worked for me (and I had loose skin due to pregnancy though, again, I totally respect that is not the same thing as the dramatic change your body is going through). And my exercise did help me.

Anyway–I just think you look great. And I definitely subscribe to the principle of retail therapy. You have this nice body. It can be fun to dress up. Go get some clothes! *Hugs*
