I decided it was time to spend a few dollars and buy myself a new pair of jeans. I had not done this for myself in a few years. I had purchased some carpenter pants but Mom didn't think they were what I shoud wear to school even for dress down/Spirit Fridays.

I wore my new jeans today. The great news, is it was great. I had forgotten what it was like to wear clothes that actually fit well. You see, I have been losing weight little by little for a couple years. I could not see the point in spending good money on new closthes when the old ones still were wearable.

Now, I can see the reason for treating me to something new. It felt really good to wear those jeans.

I am not done losing weight. I noticed some dimples this morning in places where they should not be. The only way to remove those dimples properly is to work out more and eat better. If I liked the way the jeans made me feel, imagine how wonderful a beautiful dress or blouse could feel.

TOday is Friday. Our Diet Bet begins in two days. I am truelly looking forward to this. I need that extra push of avoiding losing to help me get moving. Onederland, here I come.
