I went bathing suit shopping.  Tried a couple on.  Didn’t buy one though. Not because I looked bad - I know I did but because the one I have is fine and I know that next month, I will be smaller.  I looked at clothes and did not get depressed.  I got excited.  Why,would I at 230 lbs be excited at looking at clothes?  Because I looked at the ones I will be able to wear.  I did buy some makeup.  Lancome is having gift with purchase and the store was having a NO TAX day.  Doesn’t get much better than that.  So, I tried on bathing suits, looked at clothes, and did not get depressed.  I got excited.  I also parked as far away as I could from the store so that I would have to WALK to my car.  And walk I did in 103 degree weather.  I was hungry when I left.  I am trying to eat only when my body cues me to (and what a novel concept that is for me).  I went by McD’s and got a HUGO iced tea with Splenda (no calories) and a salsa grilled chicken snack wrap (250 calories) and it was perfect. 

I am excited with what the future holds.  I have Jell-O in the fridge in case I have a need to eat something sweet and I have 100 calorie popcorn bags on stand by too.
