I’ve finally decided to keep track of my own weight. I haven’t been because when I was over 300 pounds, my scale wasn’t accurate (actually it “broke” sometime over 305). I’ve been watching it carefully as I was afraid I would have to replace it. I’m not quite at my lowest weight, but I’m getting closer.
Speaking of my scale, I love it, it’s one of those fancy BMI scales and it measures in .1 of pounds. That’s really nice when you want a gradual weight loss — I’m hoping for 2-3 pounds a week, which I think I’m getting — will let you know in a few weeks.
Did something I haven’t done in ages. I’ve thought about it, but haven’t done — I went to the Galleria in Dallas and did the mall thing. Left when I over spent, but walked most of the 3rd and 2nd floor. Stopped in the middle and had sugar-free iced coffee and tweeter to take a breath. Found some really cool glittery red combs in a kiosk — where I spent to much — and she has some other things for me to spend too much on the future. Good sales woman, could take her hair stuff and create a really pretty hair style in seconds. Wish she had some plain, not glittery stuff, would definitely buy. And of course, red for school spirit Fridays. I believe this counts as a NSV — spending a morning shopping. NSV is lap band for Non-Scale Victory.
I’ll have to commend Chico’s, they did a very nice job of letting me know I was too big for their clothing — asked me if I knew about their sizing which opened up a conversation to ask. Also went to Macy’s and saw that their plus size clothing is ugly and shoved off the beaten path. Old Navy will start fitting soon. I thought they had Plus Sizes in a few stores in Dallas, but checked with the store and the website, and no, they shove us on-line only, which means Macy’s is slightly better….
By the way, I won’t be surprised if I don’t get a fill next week. I’m getting food stuck almost every meal. Weird, but okay.
