That Little White Dress

Weight loss — 18 June 2011

I’m having a moment today – a you-can-do-it-see-what-hard-work-brings moment. Nearly four years ago I bought this little cute white tennis dress on clearance at one of my favorite tennis shops. I couldn’t fit it then but I also couldn’t let that dress sit on the rack for that price.

“I’m going to lose the weight and fit into it – soon.” It didn’t take much to talk myself into it. Ahem.

Fast forward to today.

Me rockin’ that little white dress and wearing it to play for the first time. Yay!

It took a minute – OK, four years – but I finally got into that illusive dress and felt comfortable enough to play in it; and it’s a great motivator for me to continue to keep working hard!

Today’s workout: Tennis. I played a mixed doubles match and won in 2 sets; 6-2, 6-3.
