Weight loss journey

Oct 21:  I did it again.... I dropped 1/2 lb!!!! I'm floating on a high right now. The feeling is quite liberating and confidence building.
I have to admit something. I'm becoming extremely vain....I like looking at myself a lot right now. When ever I walk past a mirror I actually stop and take a good look. My face looks slimmer and my jawline is quite defined. My neck has gotten back to its long shapely look. I love it! It's like I'm finding myself again.
I also like how my figure is shaping up. I can see the hour-glass silhouette starting to emerge from the 'box' it was once in. 
Things are looking up and yet there is doom lurking just around the corner. Next weekend I celebrate a religious event, my son's birthday, my two niece's birthdays. Yup four celebrations jammed into one weekend... four events into three days...
Well, we'll cross that bridge when it gets here. Meanwhile, I'll try to lose all that I can before the weekend and hopefully not gain too much that when Monday rolls around, I won't be too disappointed!
Today I'm having a well-deserved restful day. However, I'm not the type to rest.... so, I'll be doing things I really want to do or need to do... things that have been sitting on that back burner far too long. With the gardening done, the gardens put to rest for the winter, the gazebo, furniture and trampoline put away safely, I can now do things that have been screaming out to me.
Current weight: 155.0
