i have been riding the high of 8lb weight loss all week. but as physics dictates, what goes up must go down. i made the mistake of going to target on my lunch break friday afternoon to try on dresses and shorts. ugh. sausage city. while i've made great strides, it's just not enough yet.
it was enough to make me yearn for my favorite security blanket: kettle chips. i felt like a baby who needed to suck their thumb. wah wah. i got back to my desk and had my jicama slices instead. when i was hungry again i had another hot cocoa. and finally on my way to the bus i stopped at the gas station to get a small back of kettle chips. luckily, even after all that, i was still within my calorie budget.
that night i continued the shopping torture and tried on bathing suits. why i thought that would help the matter i don't know. all i can say is, luckily cute shoes still fit. i somehow managed to not veer into the mcdonalds at the mall and make my way home with my tail between my legs. i whined enough to patrick at home that he had to leave the room. boo.
in my head i knew i would get over it tomorrow. and i am over it. and not just because the scale is moving in the right direction this morning. i am where i am. i am who i am. and being thinner now wouldn't necessarily make me happier. so i can be happy as me now.
my wedding dress is finally in and i get to try it on today! and THAT makes me super happy! :)
