The BIG One-Oh-Oh!!!

My 100th posting, how thrilling! Who knew I had so much to blah blah blah about?

It's been 8 months, and a current total of 17 pounds lost (it was better about 3 months ago - like 23 pounds!) since I started working out again regularly in November '05. Not bad, not bad. I'm sad it isn't currently 23 total, but I know very well why that is.

It was scary to see the needle on the scale so close to 180 today. *sigh* I do feel very feminine and sexy today, and I know that confidence makes a big difference in my perception of how I "look". I know there were days at 173 that I didn't feel so confident and sexy, and days at 196 (well, probably not *that* many) where I felt terrific! It's a very interesting concept.

Didn't get up to exercise today, but had a late night session with the bf *wink* I'm sure some calories were burned! Also, the mini-freakout of finding the (probably same) goddamn mouse sitting inside our empty trash can - aiiiieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

My eating was definitely better yesterday. Clean kitchen = clean eating, I guess. That fits in with my typical pattern.

After reading Beth's post about her 3-day walk (woohoo, girl!), my current lack of exercise seems doubly pitiful. I'm not going to beat myself up about it - I just need to *do* something about it!

Current plan: the Y tomorrow night and hopefully Friday night, although dropping daughter off at dad's so that involves at least 90 minutes round trip, usually more. Saturday and Sunday have plenty of open time to catch up on homework and get some serious sweat in.

Food? Shredded some-kind-of-grain & 7-grain stuff w/almond milk. Currently nursing a mostly-decaf coffee (boo hiss!). Have a mango, some salad stuff for lunch (will need to buy some protein at the cafe); a yogurt (soy, boo hiss!), granola bar, cheese wheel, and an organic burrito for snacks/school dinner. That's a good xena. Goooood xeeeena! Happy 100.
