I've only really lost about 6 pounds so far and I'm OK with that because I haven't been making DRASTIC changes, just trying to be mindful and cutting back.
But today, I put on my jeans (Fat Lady Jeans, I call 'em
), and.....I had to take up my belt a notch. Everything else seems the same, I look the same, but the notch I was using last week is now too loose. Yay! It's a tiny step in the right direction, and it's enough to make me want to move from simply cutting back to actually counting calories.
