Default Two small victories.

Okay this may sound a little trivial but it's a victory for me.
I finally took my own measurements.
It probably sounds goofy but I haven't weighed myself in a long long time and I have no idea what I weigh on the scale. I was bulimic for so many years that I have a fear of the scale.
I have kind of been resting on my laurels of losing a few sizes a few years ago and taking up a team sport. I don't feel as though I've made any progress, but maybe it's due to not really having a goal per se. So there it is. I know my measurements now. They are what they are and now I have a goal.
Also I only smoked one cigarette the whole weekend.
