Today... so far, so good. But hours until bedtime! lol... yesterday... well, it pretty much sucked as far as food choices and calories go. I went shopping today, got out of the house (and away from food!) and tried on clothes. That is a boost to the ego, so maybe I can just keep that good feeling with me. Sometimes it drives me nuts that clothing sizes aren't consistent, but then again, I bought a pair of jeans today in a size.... drum roll please.... ONE! Hahaha! Yeah, they have stretch in them! Yeah, they are TIGHT. But right now, I'm also carrying an additional four pounds that MUST come off. So I figure those four pounds will make the difference between these jeans being "too tight" to fitting very well. I really did sort of buy them for the size. (who says I'm shallow?!) Now granted, most of the clothes I'm wearing are a size 3, and I have a couple that are a size 5 (no stretch) that fit well. But I'm going with "3". I like the way it sounds. Anyway, the whole point being...shopping may not be good for the wallet (esp. with a car that most likely needs a new engine), but it is sure good for the ego and for getting back in "diet and health" mode!
Well, hubby is away for a very quick family reunion. Spur of the moment and I didn't care to go for a variety of reasons. And thank God, he'll be back tomorrow, so we can ring in the new year together. Unless, God forbid, his flight is delayed due to weather. I thought I'd get lots done while he was gone...not really! But, planning on a special steak dinner tomorrow at home, alone with "my man", maybe light a fire, pour some wine, and talk about what we've been through this year and what we look forward to for the next. If I don't journal tomorrow, Happy New Year to all my wonderful, loving, supportive buddies/friends! You are the best! I am ONE lucky woman!
