Weight journey.........doin' it in baby steps!

Screamin'!!!!! (with joy!)

Went to w/in today and was DOWN 1.8. So excited...this journey of mine is a slow one. I weighed in today at 171.2. So only 1.4 til the 160's. Maybe, just maybe, it will be next week? 23.2 pounds to go for my goal of 148.0.

Verdict on shopping in my closet last night---found some 12 capris I can fit into as well as some 12 jeans and pants. I even got into 1 pair of 10's that will go into the work rotation.

I have hung up some pants that were slightly tight and will use these for motivation for the next few weeks (months--whatever it takes)!

Shrek 3 was okay...maybe a little 'dark' for Evan, although he didn't wake up last night. My other 2 (hubby and oldest) will be coming home this evening from camping and we have a baseball game tonight.

I don't have too many challenges this week, but on Monday of next week, my kid brother flies in with his girlfriend. This will be the first time to me her. Of course, my mom says she is beautiful and skinny!!!

TTFN--glad we have this temp? forum for me to CELEBRATE my loss---they seem like they don't come often enough!!!
