In my little clean eating experiment I've been weighing myself every morning since December 24, just to see. I just did my morning weigh-in and I'm at 179.5lbs. For the first time in DECADES I am under the 180lb. mark. It will probably be up to 182 tomorrow but I am steadily inching my way down (it's always three steps forward/two steps back). I am just sooooo jazzed I had to tell someone (I'm off work today). I am now more determined than ever to be careful about what passes through my lips and to get back to serious exercise. Today was also measurement day and, of the ten measurements I always record, 6 are down and the other 4 are the same as last week. Not spectacular but at least I didn't gain anything. I'm guessing if I hadn't drowned my sorrows in that pint of Kroger Private Selection Black Raspberry Chocolate Chunk the day I had to have my beloved Tipper-the-cat euthanized the results would have been more impressive. I just have to watch myself because I nearly made a trip to the store to get a second pint the next day. I think we all have our trigger foods we have to resist or we fall off the wagon. The best news, the reason I started all this: I can tell the fat IS very slowly melting away from my super-chubby knees! Maybe I'm the only one who can see it but I CAN tell.
179.5... oh boy. Even if it's only for a day.
