It has been a wonderful week! Earlier this week my weight dropped down below 191, which effectively put my BMI into the catergory of "Moderately Overweight!" I am completely thrilled at achieving this goal! SO COOL! I am no longer considered OBESE!

Yesterday I was shopping for pants, and the sales clerk was convinced I was a size 12 in pants...meanwhile I knew better...I am a comfortable 14.... but the fact that she thought I was smaller than I actually was totally made my day.

Yesterday I drank multiple cups of coffee while out doing errands and by the time I got home I really really had to pee (sorry about the TMI), so in my haste I whipped my pants down...only to start laughing at myself when I realized that I forgot to unbutton and unzip my jeans! These are the smallest size jeans I own!!!!!!!!

More evidence that my butt is shrinking: I was out for my run this morning...and I got half way around the block when my stretchy-spandex lululemon running pants started to fall down... I actually had to go back home and change...because my pants were falling down and interrupting my run...Do you know how funny a person looks running and trying to pull their pants up at the same time? It's probably hilarious to watch...

Regardless, these are problems I love to having! LOL

I realized it has been a year since I started blogging, so today I wrote about "what I see when I look in the mirror", vs. what I saw last year around this time. It's amazing how different I see myself now. I am SO GRATEFUL for that.

So the Countdown is on.... to my first ever 5K is 7 days....woo hoo! (CIBC Run for the Cure in Sudbury). And the Countdown to Aruba is 15 days...woo hoo! Can't wait to wear my bathing suits...as in plural...more than one... I HAVE NEVER IN MY LIFE been excited about wearing bathing suits... seriously, if I didn't know better I would think I was abducted by aliens...this journey is so crazy some times!

This morning I weighed in at 189... I have finally entered the 180's! Woo Hoo!
As of today, only 24lbs to goal....

Happy SUNDAY folks!
