Improvement!

So I weighed in and I was DOWN! Oh yes, you read right and my scale gave me a down arrow... the number read 254.4. Not too shabby... I still won't make it to goal which is my birthday this Thurday but at least I am closer as opposed to going up and that makes me happy. Official weigh in is in a couple of days and I am feeling good about it - and hoping nothing will come along to throw me off. I am going to go shopping with my mom and Thursday to buy a new pair of jeans for my birthday and I am also going to look for a dress for myself for the wedding Brad and I are going to on Saturday. YAY! I will have to take a picture and try to post it on here...
Another thing I am happy about is my belly seems to have shrunk - by this I mean I have been getting fuller faster so I am NOT eating as much. For example, we went to lunch today because I was training our new recruitment coordinator and we had a couple of sides first and I didn't eat that much but then was practically full when the entree comes. This is especially exciting for me because I have been to this 'place' before... I remember it well; where there was half the entree leftover, when I wasn't hungry for the rest of the day after my meal, when I lost pounds because I wasn't eating as much... it was a beautiful place and I am on my way there - YAHOO!!!
I am now going to try to figure out how to put music on my phone and think about heading up to the gym tonight since my husband has taken the baby to the mall with him...
