Been a while
I haven't had a computer for a while, but that's ok- there hasn't been much to report. Yesterday, however, my new computer arrived (a netbook to hold me over while I get my desktop fixed, and to supplement it after) and today when I weighed myself? I'd finally lost a pound!
I'm really pleased with that. The heat finally arriving here has definitely affected my appetite, so I find myself eating and snacking less, drinking iced tea and making smoothies for meals again. I had stopped because they seemed to increase snacking, but having them now for breakfast seems to help and yesterday I had one for dinner.
I feel great! My boyfriend will be leaving briefly soon and I'm (secretly, shh) hoping I can lose another pound while he's gone. It's much easier to lose weight historically when he's not around. We definitely 'feed' each other's bad eating habits! And even now that I eat a much healthier diet I still find myself eating more when we spend time together because he's eating more, you know? So maybe I'm eating fruits, veggies and farina but eating 25% more is still 25% more.
We'll see! I'm glad I didn't let myself feel bad in the several weeks that I haven't lost any weight. I'm glad I can feel comfortable with where I am, even if I don't feel that I am where I'd love to be, I am enjoying the life that happens without constantly thinking about how I look.
Happy Summer, Guys!
