My date last night was a success! He was
SO CUUUTEEE and such a gentleman! We had so much fun. I always worry about first dates (even if you already know the person) being awkward. We went out to dinner and then back to his place to watch The Office. Since it was pretty casual, I didn't feel pressured or anything. YAY! ANDDD I'm even more excited because he asked me to be his Valentine!

SO EXCITED, SO EXCITED.
I don't know if anyone else on here feels this way but I was so used to being fat. I was used to guys being my friend but never telling me I was beautiful, hot, or cute. I've lost weight so quickly that I still see myself in the mirror as someone big. So last night when he told me that I was really pretty I just said, "Uhh, thanks." I have a protective wall that I've put up over the last few years as I've gotten larger because I always felt that if people told me I was pretty (especially a guy) that they were just actually making fun of me and they couldn't have been serious. Last night I responded with a hesitant thanks because I wasn't sure if he was serious. I need to learn to accept that I really don't look like the same girl 30 pounds ago and realize that people
CAN tell me that I'm beautiful and not be sarcastic.
It's just hard to take a compliment when you haven't gotten one in so long. You guys know what I mean?
ANYWAY! My scale dropped down into the 155 range yesterday and even after I went out eating last night, it's still in the 155s! I think it is here to stay. HOORAH!

I want to get down to 155.0 by Tuesday's weigh in! OK off to do lots of homework today!
