Yippee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Current weight: 224.5 (-1)
Lots of good stuff happened today. First of all, my wake-up call was our nurse knocking on the door. That may not seem like a big deal but that means I was still sleeping (and so was Kyle) at 6:45! Granted, he was up at 3:30 but I love being able to sleep in.
The next great thing was the scale. I was so hoping to be below 225 and it was 224.5! I’m officially closer to 200 than 250. Later, (TMI alert) I took care of my daily bathroom business and saw 223 
That was my previous low-weight as an adult before I got pregnant w/Kyle. I’m not taking it as my weigh-in for today and won’t even dare to hope that I’ll see it tomorrow but by my official weigh-in on Sunday it can happen. After that it’s unchartered territory and I can’t wait to explore.
Later, though, was the big kahuna. One of my closest friends called and told me that a HS Spanish position has opened up in our district. The department chair called her to see if she thought I would be interested. I wasn’t sure at first b/c change is a big deal to me and I have an overdeveloped sense of loyalty, but I finally realized that it would be a good change for me. I called the department chair and it sounds like the job is mine for the taking. I have to submit a letter requesting a transfer and the job is open until the end of the day on Wednesday but after that I might have a different job!
Workout-wise I had a great experience, too. Did the CE workout for today and then decided to re-try the Recharge workout. It’s a combination of stretching and yoga and the first time I tried it I hated it. I think doing it after I was all sweaty from the weights was what did it b/c my muscles were so warm that I could really feel the stretch. Later, I went to the gym and put in an hour on the treadclimber. If I’m starting a new job I want to be as skinny as possible
Hope you all had as great a day as I did and I hope I have as good a day tomorrow!
Progress toward workout goal: 65/300
WOOHOO! Life’s possibilities are really opening up to you. You’ve got a new attitude and it’s yours for the taking! Change is scary but often just the thing you need most.
Congrats on the weight. I guess we are all the same. The slave to the scale. We have about 4 different weights. First thing, after pottying, after working out, and before bed? I thought it was just me that checked all day long! I’ll keep my fingers crossed for your weigh in!
congrats on the new job, and the loss!!! Good work!!!
Sounds like you had an excellent day! Hope the new job transfer works out..and congrats on being closer to 200!
YAY! What an amazing day! I could use one or two of those. Especially the part about the job. Send your good luck my way, please?
Congrats - you deserve it! Hopefully today goes as well as yesterday.
That’s awesome- screw loyalty- how loyal were they to you when they gave that position you wanted to someone else?! (I think that was you right?)
I love my job but to me if another opportunity came up that paid more and was worth my while I’m JUMPING ON IT.
This post is just bubbling over with excitement and exciting things! I’m so happy for you and congrats on the new low!!
Oh yeah -thanks for the info on the protein bars. Looks like they do have them at my Sam’s Club…I’ll have to swing by there soon. They look yummy!
