Default Mirrors!!

I went to a conference this weekend.

OMG. There were floor to ceiling mirrors everywhere. In my hotel room, in the workout room, even in some of the conference rooms. I could not get away from them. I got to see myself from angles I never thought I could!!!

I am so glad to be back at home so that my reality is only one dimensional. No more mirrors for me though until I get to my goal weight. That many mirrors showing that much reality are no good for a woman's self esteem.

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Honey right now you look so much better than before. I imagne if you seen yourself before this time you might have liked the view alot better. Those celing to floor mirrors dont do much for any of us but in a way I wish i had one my whole life that way I could have seen myself better if that makes any sense.

None of us like mirrors, but they can be a good thing.

LOL, I bet that was hard! I think even at most women's ideal weight they still don't like full length mirrors- ahhhhhhhhhhhh the horror!

Becka, I can't imagine a mirror being my friend. It's sad how we view ourselves sometimes.
