So close to a new set of numbers!

Yup, so close that I can taste it!  I'm at 180, and am desperate to hit the 170's.  I'm hoping to hit it this Friday, when I weigh in.  At night I have been weighing in at 181.2, and in the morning, at 180.2.  So we shall see.  

I have been tracking calories and points.  Exercising.  I need to step it up, because I feel like I'm in a rut.  I am going to start walking outside in addition to my cardio on the bike.  Once I hit 160, I am going back to running.  I LOVE running.  But I need to be strong, so I don't mess up my ankle again.


I went shopping a week ago, and the size 12's are getting looser.  I bought some size M tops, which I haven't done in a loooong time.  Granted, they are loose fitting so they need to be sized down, but still.  I bought a size 10 pair of casual capris at Ann Taylor loft, and while they are tight, they are not too far off.


I also whipped out this dress I had from years ago, that I remember buying off the clearance rack at Lord and Taylor.  This super cute dress that I plan on wearing when I have "Tea" in London.  It's a size 10.  It actually ZIPS!  WOW!  It's a very small dress, if you look at it on the hanger.


It freaks me out.  When I was 148, I was a size 10.  When I hit 141, I was a size 8.  When I used to be in the 130's, I was still a size 8.  How in the world am I getting close to a 10 already, and I weigh so much????  Are clothing brands crazy different then they were (but that really wouldn't explain the L&T dress), or is it the exercising/toning?  What size will I be/what will I look like at 135-140 now?  It's kind of exciting AND scary.


Anyway...I won't complain anymore.  I'm very happy to see new sizes.  :)

Getting back on track!

So..  I've still been logging and counting and exercising, but i feel like it's been half assed.  After three weeks of not losing any weight, I'm back on track.  We still have Easter food, but I've been counting it and exercised so it was burned off.  My period is almost over, so looking forward to the scale this week.  Can't wait to see the 170s.  My goal for the end of the school year is to be 160.  We will see!  I can do it if i keep accountable.
