ups and downs

Well, after a good weight loss, the next week, I gain 2/10ths of a pound. That was a bummer. Then, I missed a week, because I overslept. So next Tuesday I get weighed again, and will let you know how I did. I'm being real strict with myself. I sometimes have to really argue with myself, like yesterday, I went into Starbucks to get a large cup of ice water, and they had these delicious looking muffins, and I was trying to figure out the points it would probably be, and was halfway into talking myself into one of them, when I just turned around and walked out. No no no. That is not a good lifestyle change. Got to get used to not eating things that merely look good. I'm trying. My size 26 jeans have gotten too big for me to wear now - they look ridiculous on me. I tried on several pairs of jeans I had in my closet and my size 22 jeans fit perfectly! I had dropped 2 sizes! I was one happy camper! It has been a while since I was a size 22. Now I am aiming for a size 20, and then into the 18's. That will really make me feel good.
