Thank you ladies!

I might have overdone lunch a little (ate tapas and probably had one appetizer plate too many), but still kept portions small and got a lot of walking in! And dinner was great, ate at the Mirage CPK and they have a new little section on the menu with healthier choices and calorie counts! So I got their grilled chicken chimichurri (550 calories).

Oh, and on our trip to the mall my husband led me into a Godiva where he bought us some chocolate-covered strawberries. It's a little tradition of ours since it's the very first gift he ever bought me! Back then we had just started long-distance dating and hadn't even met in person yet! When we got married we had a bride and groom decorated set of strawberries to top our cake. Anyway, we each enjoyed two of the strawberries yesterday, a yummy treat that wasn't over-the-top in calories.

Oh, and while we were out I noticed I'd missed a call. When I checked my voice mail I found out I've got a job interview tomorrow! Nothing major, just a seasonal cashier position at a craft store . . . but because of my anxieties I haven't worked a "regular" job since 2007! I'm hoping I'll have a much easier time being on my feet now that I'm a good 50+ pounds lighter.

Anyway, a reason to stay on plan today is so I can be even stronger and healthier by the new year.

Elladorine congratulations on your anniversary and I'm so glad to hear that y'all had a great time, and also about your interview! Hope that all goes well!!!


I'm staying on plan today because I dropped a bit of excess weigh I gained last week, and I never want to see those numbers again.

Thank you! I'm getting ready for that interview right now!

* * *

I fit into 16 jeans last night. It's so surreal. And I'll admit it, even though I wasn't expecting it at all I started crying. I know I fit into 16's many years back but I honestly don't remember it. And to think I used to be too big to buy any jeans from the plus size stores!

I didn't think the realization that yes, this is really happening would hit me so hard, but I'm still used to the mindset that it takes 40 pounds or more to go down a size. So yes, definitely staying on plan today.
