ZIPPED UP

So I have a confession. 
...which is fitting since my blog is clearly titled that I have a lot to confess in this dieting game.

I have been losing for a very specific reason.   The dress I bought....wouldn't zip.

I finally submitted defeat. 
Waved the giant white granny panty flag.

I took my dress in to be altered.  I was going to have a lace up back put into the dress because in 3 weeks on weight watchers I have only lost 4 pounds.  I had higher expectations, I will admit.  I thought I would lose more.  I suppose I am losing the expected amount, but with everyone else around me losing weight hand over fist, I wanted to see dramatic results too. 

Dramatic results occurred when the seamstress zipped my dress. 
And not just mid-way up.  --ALL the way up.

I no longer had a 3 inch gap in the dress.  How is this possible you ask? 
...I don't know.  At this time I am not questioning it rather I am embracing it.   Sometimes the Wedding Gods just throw you a bone and you simply bow in their presence of tulle and ribbons.   I didn't so much bow as squeal and dance around a bit.

This dress news did give me renewed motivation to continue strong even though the results are minimal.  



In other news: 
I do not recommend Campbell's LIGH Chicken Gumbo soup.  I could have chewed on my foot and it would have tasted better.  After 3 spoons full, it was poured down the drain.   Diet or no diet, I am not subjecting myself to that.
