Last Night's Post Today

Sorry I didn't post. Had a lot going on. My dog ripped his toenail off and we had to do some fish shopping. Long story.

There's an article I read awhile back I've been meaning to post. It's about two new eating disorders that have been discovered. Everyone has heard of anorexia and bulimia. But have you heard of orthorexia and Adult Selective Eating? I actually know people with one of these. I never considered it a disorder. Well you can read more about it down here.

So yesterday I had a glass of Kefir, raspberry flavor. If you haven't had Kefir, try it. It's super yummy and makes you full. You can get it at Earth Fare and I think Kroger. For a mid morning snack I had a Nature Valley granola bar. At lunch I had a turkey and swiss panini from the cafeteria at work. Probably not the healthiest option, but I was peer pressured into it. My sister insisted "salads are boring!" Which isn't entirely true. But to make up for it, I skipped dinner and had another glass of Kefir. I truly wasn't hungry the rest of the night. Which unfortunately shows me how many calories I had at lunch:(

Anyways, I'm hoping I'll do better today! Wish me luck!

*UPDATE*

I've decided to continue on today's blog for today's meals. I had a bowl of cereal for breakfast and some Triscuits "With a Hint of Salt" as a snack later that morning. I had a very late lunch and had 3 Chicago Hard Rolls from Publix. One with Brie and two with strawberry jam. Then I had a 100 calorie pack of mini fudge stripes. I bought a new type of water today. It comes in a can and it's called "La Croix." It was pretty good, I got the lime flavor. At least I won't be dragging around my huge bottles of Perrier to work anymore.

Speaking of work, I got to go home early today and I had a great idea. Dig through my graveyard of shorts that no longer fit. They haven't fit me in years. Literally. Most of these shorts I bought when I first moved back to the U.S. in 2007. Around that time I weighed around 145-148. I thought that was too much back then, haha. Anyways, they are almost all size 9 juniors with the exception of one or two that claim they are size 11, but really they size 9. And guess what. I fit in all but two of them!!!!

I was dancing around the house singing "size 9, size 9...size 9, size 9, size 9!!!"
Granted some of them are a bit shorter than what I'm used to, but I don't have the excessive belly flab hanging over them. And get this! They fit on my butt! Haha, so this whole time I've been unsure where the 8 pounds I've lost have been from. I can now tell you. Butt, thighs and belly. Mostly belly and butt. Soooo happy. Today is a good day. Tomorrow is my 29th birthday and I'm looking forward to continuing this weight loss. I've still got two pairs of shorts that don't fit. They are "goal shorts." I hope that within a month I can also fit into these:)
