I have been having a hard time emotionally the past couple of days...something really difficult is coming in a week with my SO and I have no idea how to stop it or what to do about it.

But I have been doing well this week on my plan, both with eating and exercise. I have been doing extra exercise and eating at the lower end of my calories to make up for Thanksgiving and will have a weigh in soon. Even at Thanksgiving, I made sure to get a lot of extra workout time in.

Anyway, I just got back from the gym, after going back to work today and having a really stressful day there, too, and I was just thinking that my workout was really the highlight of the day today...probably of the last 2 days. For the time I was there, I was able to really concentrate on that and....thoughts that made me happy. How interesting that for that time I could sort of put all this other stuff aside.

As for the non-scale victories....

1. In PA last week, I was able to wrap a REGULAR SIZED TOWEL around me instead of a bath sheet, which is what I have and all that would work before!

2. Yesterday I was going through some clothes in the closet that were now too big. I also tried on a T shirt I got in Ireland 2 years ago, which was really too tight to wear at the time, and now it is BAGGY! It was not even like this in the spring!

That's it for now!
