Another pair of pants fit!
I have both good news and not so stellar news today.
Good news - I put on a pair of pants today that I haven't worn in almost a year! Size 16 Liz Clairborne cargo pants that I absolutely loved when I bought them. I have them in charcoal grey and a sandstone color. Yahoo! Another two pair of pants in my wardrobe that fit me!
Oh! And last week I wore a Chico's size 3 suit to work that I hadn't worn in at least 3 months and it was really big on me - not big enough to give away yet, but definately big enough for me to be able to see where I've lost inches.
Two really big wins in the past week.
Not so stellar news is that I had a slight gain this week of .2 pounds. Now, why does that just ruin my day? It's only .2lbs and I did cheat with a couple of beers at the hockey game the other day, and then I went out to dinner and I had dinner at a friend's house, so it's not like I was following my plan 100%. So why does this bother me?
It bothers me because I want to be thin and hot and sexy. It bothers me because I want this to be a quick fix even though I realize it takes time to reach my goals. It bothers me because I still have a core belief that I'm not pretty enough or skinny enough to be loved by a man (thank you to my father and his friends who told me I was fat as a child - jerks).
I'm bothered because I'm still not comfortable with the size of my body. I want to be able to bend easier without my thigh and belly fat getting in my way! I want my knees and ankle to stop hurting all the time. I really want to eat See's Candy! Dark chocolate is my absolute favorite and I miss it.
Okay - back to my salad from lunch and I'll go get a refill on my water. I really need to start focusing on getting more water in every day. That's a habit I have not yet gotten in to and I know it will help.
Otherwise, life is good! Busy, but good!
My old vocal coach and life coach (she does both) is coming into town this weekend to sing at my church, so she's asked me to sing with her and we're getting together for dinner. What fun! I can't wait to see her!
Happy thursday everyone.
