Aah, its been a good week. I don't think I have had one of these in quite a while. Makes me feel really good inside. I am hoping to keep this up into next week too!
Eating has been going awesome. Ever since I switched to Calorie Count, I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders. I SO wish I did this months ago! It really only counts calories, and nothing else. Yes, I know, I should follow the others ones, but it just became too overwhelming doing them all. And once that happened, I would just stop. I am already down 3.6 pounds this week! Getting closer to my ultimate goal of 170. That's it. I finally decided I needed to nail down a weight so I could stop freaking out about it so much. So 170 it is! And, that is also the weight on my driver's license. HAHA for once that will be correct.
Now, I am directing myself in other ways. The word to work on this week is FOCUS. Something I have been missing lately. My brain has been out of sorts of a while, so I need to push into back into line. Yesterday didn't help, I was a hot mess. I.. ripped my jeans, almost fell down the stairs at work twice, broke my ear bud, went to buy new jeans and then proceeded to lose my shoe in the dressing room, lord. It was just bad. But I am working on it. Today has been much better!
With my jeans, I decided to go in there just looking for a pair to fit my large belly and skinny legs, which are way too long. The number of the size didn't matter. Which, I haven't been able to do in a while. It's funny. I brought three pairs of 16L in with me. The first pair was HUGE on me, the second was tight and the third fit. It's amazing that sizes are NEVER the same. I have some shirts that are mediums and some that are XXL. I wish this world would get it together. When you are down in the dumps, off sizing like that is horrible. But what can you do. I probably should of gotten one size smaller, now that they have stretched out, but I really didn't want to have to sit in them for 6 hours with major muffin top.
As for the man friend, things have been going good. Still talking. I have upgraded to an occupation, phone number and picture. And, I kinda know him in a weird way, so at least he isn't a creeper!
