Default Good Birthday (new photo)

Today was a great birthday for me. I was eating out twice (once at work and once with family) but I really didn't want to blow it for my points. Lunch was at an Italian place and I was tempted by pasta but went for the rainbow trout with pico di gallo, eating only green beans and a little salad with it (total 14 points).

Dinner I decided to go to Red Lobster (seafood is low points) ordered grilled garlic shrimp and snow crab legs with rice pilaf and two biscuits (17 points) so 31 points for the day!

Had my son take a new picture of me when I got home (I've been avoiding pics for years).

Here is an old pic from last May (about 206 pounds)



And today's pic - (180.4 pounds)

Thanks, all. It is funny. The first 20 pounds or so that I lost weight I didn't really visually notice much difference. Then, this last 5 pounds it has been more visible.

It is interesting to think of perception. When my son was born 17 years ago next week I was at 180 post-pregnancy and felt like a blimp and thought it was so awful. Later I even got down to the mid-150s a couple of times -- and still felt fat comparing to my then WW goal weight of 125. Now, 180 seems svelte! And I would love, love, love to be 155.
