This week I’m down 0.6 pounds from last Friday. Hmph. Not impressive. But it’s still a loss! As I near my goal of 148, it’s getting harder and harder to drop the weight. But I will not be deterred! Being able to fit into my clothes again is quite the motivator.

Turns out I’m really quite fond of several items in my wardrobe. If only I could toss the stuff I’m “meh” about. But I can’t afford to replace things wholesale. Drat. Today I wore a pair of my J.Crew skinny jeans. Oh heaven. To say they “fit” would be overstating it just a tad, but dammit, I wore those suckers (thank goodness for a loose-fitting silk shirt).

Oh and as far as needing motivation goes, the desire to have my wedding rings fit once again (grr) also keeps me going and keeps me away from the cookies… for the most part.
