    Default I had a date!!!

    Ok, so it's been a few years since I'd been on a date. Mostly because I kept to myself due to insecurity about my size.
    Well, last month I decided to try online dating. Went on a date with a lovely man. We met at a pub, and he had gotten there before me and had gotten a booth. The minute I saw him there, I started sweating big time. My thought being, I'm not going to fit in that booth. The table is too close, and I'll have to push the table back to squeeze in and I'll be embarrassed.

    Well, I fit in just fine! Was able to scoot all the way over with no problem. Didn't have to move the table, nor did my boobs/stomach bump the table and knock over his beer. In the past, I've knocked over a few drinks by accidentally moving the table trying to squeeze into a booth.

    Yet another NSV!!!

    Oh wonderful! So happy for you. And I have that moment every time I head for a booth, too. What a wonderful relief to just slide right in and out again.

    That is so cool! Way to rock your new body! So happy for you to get out and socialize! The real question is though will there be a second date???

    I still have those moments where I think I won't fit (even though I'm officially tiny now). I'm sure it will get better with time.
