I'm On My Way

If any of you are friends with me on Facebook, you know that I recently joined Curves. It's been about seven weeks, and I'm happy with the progress I've been making.  I didn't weigh in this week, because with Kasi's birthday party and Mother's Day falling on the same weekend, I knew my weight would be up a little bit.  The last time I did weigh in, I was down 14 pounds and 24 inches.  It's nice seeing all my hard work produce results.

The best thing about this weight loss is that my clothes are fitting better.  Jeans I used to have to suck my gut in just to button and zip up now slide right on, without my even having to unbutton or unzip them.  I know pretty soon I will have to buy new clothes, and I am kind of looking forward to it.

Along with all this exercising, I have been eating healthier, too, which I know is helping me lose weight.  I have been trying new foods, which is not something I am used to.  It would be nice if I could find freebies of granola bars and nuts. I could probably find some free diet pills , but I am doing so well on my won right now, I don't want to take supplements of any kind unless I absolutely have to.  I am going to sign up for all the free beauty samples I can, because I find myself paying much more attention to how I look, as well as how I feel.

My sister told me the other day that nothing tastes as good as skinny feels.  I am far from skinny, but my goal is to someday know exactly what she meant by that.
