Lotion with sparkles? Sounds delightful! I am so happy for you to make your holiday goal and be in the size 10 jeans too. I am edging towards 10s in some things and like you, it is amazing to think I could wear a 10! Or maybe even an 8 someday. :) About the funk, it's only one night. You won't do much damage even if you really enjoy yourself. Have a great time with your husband and don't stress about January 2nd. You are doing great and starting off 2010 with a bang!

Jessy ... thanks!! I'm still thinking about the goal for the challenge. I think it may be something as simple as being "on track" for 7 days in a row!! I'm sure I'll think of something!! Of course I will not be "on track" on New Year's Day ... I already know I'll be eating out that day, at least for breakfast ... hmmm ... obsess, obsess, obsess ... LOL!!

Being "on track" sounds like a great goal to me. You certainly know what it means for you to be on track. And like Jessy said, you have until next Monday to decide!

LOL! I think almost all of us here are more than a little obsessed with our weight. It becomes even more evident when some of us afraid to be without our scales for even a single day. The last trip I took, I took mine along with me (not the first time). However, since we know how much we can trust ourselves when our back is turned, we know only too well that it pays to be ever vigilant. ;-)

Some day, maybe there will be a little chip we can implant that connects to our watch or something that will give us a minute by minute readout of our weight! Now that would be true obsession! :) Congrats on making your year-end goal and wearing your size 10's! You are superwoman! Sometime in 2010 I'll be congratulating you on your size 8's! Glad you had some luck finding jeans for your hubby. Lee buys his without trying them on, then takes back what doesn't fit. I call it his 'catch and release' shopping. Which challenge are you in? I haven't done one in awhile. Not sure I'm ready for it, but I'll take a look.

Amy ... Seven Days: Whatever It Takes! Beets came up with this ... I figured since it is only 7 days I might be able to pull it off!! LOL!!!
What will it take to get off your plateau, build confidence, kick start the new year? Decide and do it for seven days. starts in: 5 days
duration: 7 days

Oh yea ... and I love the idea about the chip that can monitor our weight minute by minute!! NOT!!! I love the 'catch and release' shopping. Bob hates to try clothes on when we shop ... so I did the catching and releasing for him!!!

I do that sometimes with the shopping if I am too lazy to go to the store. I will order from the catalog each thing in a couple different sizes and keep what fits. Sounds like you are doing great. I like that chip idea too! lol

Let's hear it for those Size Ten pants! Woo hoo! I wear a Size 10 and I am half your height! You must look tremendous. Another three cheers for sparkly lotion. I love that kind of lotion. I LOOK for it but can not find it! What kind did you get? Enjoy your New Year's Eve plans. Sounds as if a good time is in store for you all. HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Poet ... son bought my lotion at the Body Shoppe or something like that!! I don't know how "tremendous" I look ... but I sure am feeling good!!!

The cook book you bought, pg 237, thats what I am working on right now! And that is what will make me 'fluct up' lol and Menudo! Oh I can't wait for the party!!! I chuckled at your 'normal people' comment, must not mean us fs'ers. I say you buy more size 10s since they make you feel so good. It can be your new goal to make 'em lose, and ditch those 16s! I finally did that and its better to keep track with. Very nice of you to help your hub that way, sales will be fantastic tomorrow.

I really don't want to ditch the one pair of 16's I have. They are such nice pants ... black, INC brand, very slim legs ... I think that is why I can still wear them .... with a belt of course!!! I don't wear them often as they are rather dressy. I'll have to look up page 237!! It is so strange to feel slim ... I could get used to this!!!
