My jeans, my jeans they fit me crazy... the boys be yellin' out you're beautiful baby!

I feel so pretty, picture perfect, beautiful... don't you feel pretty like you're putting on a show?

If you've seen the Sex and the City movie, you know this song.

Amongst all of the chaos in my brain lately I've managed to track the entire week with my new 3 month tracker. I used up all of my daily points, weekly points and ate some extra points that I didn't have to use. However, this week was a success because regardless of what I put into my mouth I tracked it. I wasn't doing much of anything while I was traveling besides trying to make some healthy choices.

I went to bed early last night just because I needed the rest. I was bright eyed and bushy tailed this morning at 7:30 a.m. I decided that before I went to weigh-in I was going to take updated body shots. I've been doing these for my own reference and haven't posted any on the blog until now. I've been taking them in the infamous tiny yellow bikini.

This is today's picture. As soon as I looked in the mirror this morning I noticed a huge difference in my body and knew that regardless of my weight I was making progress in the way my body looks and the way my clothes fit. My dress pants that I bought in January at 220 lbs are falling off of me. I need to get them taken in.

I am no where near model body but the swim suit doesn't look half bad. I still have about 30 lbs left to lose but dare I say... I'm proud of the body I have now. It look me a while to convince myself to let the world see me in this bikini but here I am in all my glory.

After I took the picture I told myself that regardless of the stay the same I was expecting this week that I had to be proud of where I had come since January... and if I left in a particularly foul mood I told myself to come home and look at the yellow bikini picture.

So I went to my meeting today and weighed in at 185.8. Down 2.8 lbs! The body does weird things sometimes because as I mentioned I ate every single point I had this week and a few more.

This week I commit to: Continuing to track my points and this time eating within them. I also plan to get back into some exercise. My little running chick on the side is about to go on vacation.

I set a little 10 lb challenge for myself so I could get into the 170s sometime this lifetime. So far 2.8/10

Woo Hoo!
