It Comes...It Goes...Down 9 lbs

In one month I will lose only 2 lbs and then in 1 week I lose 7 and then overnight I lose 2 lbs...That is the up and down of it.

I started doing some temp work this week. Just blase design/production work. Still concerned about how I'm going to pay rent and the rest... But glad for the work. Very happy about the loss. I'm hoping to be down to 178 by the end of the month. I'm fitting easily into size 12s. My upperbody is still thick and...I could continue to point out things to be "fixed." But I am just glad. I have to understand my body is not a calculator. It's going to release as it sees fit. And it knows better than I do. I also have to drink lots more water.

A couple of weeks ago I went out on a date. The date itself did not bring fireworks. But the surprise was so nice and a reason to get all fluffy and pretty was a superior feeling. This week I have a photoshoot with the Washington Post. I am glad about that. Trying to bake, design, work and diet is a lot to juggle this week. I'm not sure if I will even have time to exercise. So I'm going to try to keep my calories at or below 1200. Keep looking for work...this temp job is just temporary. Figure out how to do the farmer's market, bake, design and pay bills...maybe be blessed with new friends and new dates.

I'm looking forward to the Spring. I'm looking forward.
