  • Wa-Hoo!!!!

    When I started I was wearing a very tight size 12 jeans.. So tight in fact that I was considering buying a size 14. Instead I went out and bought a size 10 pair. I started into induction on that day... Yesterday my husband mentioned that my jeans were getting a little baggy! Cool... I got out my new jeans and expected them to be snug. No such luck they fit just right.. I even have some room in the waist band...I'm so jazzed!!!

                              Thanks all... I am pleased..

                              But last night I had a little slip. So today I'm going back to day one of induction and recommitting. My cousin came into town. I haven't seen him in years. I did great through the meal.. Steak, salad, asparagus.. Iced tea.. But then after dinner they served cheese and apples with dramboui (sp?).. I drank about two tablespoons of that sweet liquor. I knew better at the time but made a decision I wanted to taste it. I also made a decision that I wasn't going to let that cheat lead to days and weeks of being bad. One thing that helps is feeling like I have to come here and be held accountable. By having you guys I can't just slip into old habits...

                              Thanks to all of you!!

                              ... this could have led to weeks or months of backsliding.. but it's not going to. And I've a stronger resolve... Tomorrow is my 50th Birthday.. I will NOT eat cake!!!
