Yay! I’ve lost weight! 3.5 whole pounds. Not bad considering in the first two weeks, I gained 2lbs. So really, I’ve lost 1.5lbs. But that’s better than nothing, right?

What I’m most excited about is that I broke the 200lb barrier. (For the record, I’m not afraid to state my weight. I’m a big girl. Figuratively and literally.) I’ve had trouble forever getting under 200lbs. A few months ago I got down to 195, and I damn near scheduled a parade through the city. Of course, the second I hit 195, I rocketed right back up to 205. It’s been 4 months or so since I’ve been under 200, and I’m super excited. Again. But this time I think I’m postponing the parade until I’m under 190.
