Today I am fighting some demons.
We have family pictures this weekend and went shopping to get an outfit this morning. Also got an outfit for DD which is super cute... hers was pretty easy. Mine on the other hand... 😬
It had actually been so long since I wore jeans that I had no idea what size I truly was. It was a bummer to see it was still a size 20. Sigh. I wear things a little looser than some maybe but an 18 wouldn’t have been possible. On top, it was nice to pick up an XL and a 1X! I would have reached for a 2x before. There’s a lot of stretch To these so I’m sure that helps but still, was cool.
I got home and tried them on in my mirror and I wasn’t as big of a fan of the tops as I was at the store. They felt big and bulky still yet small in some areas. So frustrating. I think the one may fit better if it’s washed and dried but then I can’t return it. I’m going to try another store tomorrow so maybe.
Then, for reasons pertaining to the weight gain I am sure, I am positively exhausted today. I downed three cups of coffee and still am so tired that I want to go to bed now. I wanted to eat all the things but resisted temptation. I had a big salad for lunch with ham and pepperoni and probably a hint too much dressing and then a bacon/brussel/cauliflower rice Alfredo type dish for dinner. Both pretty good.
I would like to perhaps dial down the meals a notch and not make them so rich for a week, make them basic. I’ve got some great rich recipes that I’m used to making now and want to see if I can maybe kick my weight loss up a notch/maybe get a woosh before the end of this contest that I’m in. Maybe I’ll try that tomorrow.
I also took a women’s multivitamin today, so I’m hoping that helps my cravings and lethargy a little.
