It's been a few days

I haven't written since Sunday but it's been a little busy.  My sister, brother in law and sweet nephew moved to Virginia and I have been a little slack but tomorrow is a new day and I'm gonna do both my workouts.  I have had great success and I'm gonna keep trucking because my Dad and I are racing to 200.  Loser has to buy dinner at our favorite restaurant.  I'm pretty sure that I will win but, guys lose weight a little differently so I know he could catch up sooner.  I have 9 pounds and he has a few more than that so if I'm good and lose 2 a week like i'm supposed to I should be under 200 in 5 weeks or less.   I can't wait!

I did have a little set back today.  My jeans are loose so I went to the store to try on the smaller size and they didn't fit.  This is a little frustrating bc I've lost 15 the next size should fit but it doesn't.  The reasoning I made for this was that I was wearing my jeans too tight before and now they are fitting just right.  I'm not sure if that is right but it helps me not lose motivation.  I have a picture of the bathing suit I want for this summer and it is not available in my current size.  I've already got the money for it but I'm not going to buy it until it fits.  That's my plan for all my new clothes.  I'm not buying it unless it fits. I'm just gonna have to wear my 18 jeans until they wont stay up.  I'm not shopping for any clothes until I can fit into my new work pants.

So today was a little setback that came with more motivation and more drive.  I'm gonna win this contest and I'm gonna enjoy the victory :)
