Oops. Missed last week's weigh-in entirely. *sweatdrop* Then again, since I was out of state then in a car accident, I think I'll forgive myself. ^_^
Good news? Over the two weeks since my last weigh-in, I lost 1.6 lbs. *cheers* People, I think I'm finally back on track! *beams* That makes a total of... *drumroll* ...33.4 lbs! *throws confetti* And I made my 15% -- that means that I have lost 15% of the weight that I was originally carrying 6 months ago. *bows* Thank you, thankyouverymuch. ^_^
Now if only my body would make up it's mind what size pants it wants to be in. -.-;;; I have a freakin' job interview on Wednesday and I can't find a single pair of slacks in my wardrobe that fits. Which wouldn't be a problem if I could find a pair in a store that fit. O_o;;; I never realized how much I relied on the fact that I could walk into Lane Bryant and pick up a pair of size 18 (or 20 :-P) pants and know they would fit. Now that I don't fit in their sizes anymore (and my sister's forbidden me to shop there ever again...), I find myself in a quandary. Ironically, I find I don't mind. I just don't want to spend $40 on a pair of pants that I may never wear again. -.-;;;
And while we're on the subject, why do women's sizes have to be so variable to start with, huh? Back me up, girls -- how much do you hate walking into a store with a man and watching him pick up a pair of pants? It's fascinating and jealousy-inducing at the same time. They walk in, pick up a pair of pants/jeans/shorts/whatever... and go to the register to buy them without ever trying them on. Why? Because men's pants are actually sized according to measurements. They can walk in and pick up a pair of pants in their size and just know, with 99% surety, that those pants will fit, every time, no trying on required. :-P Sometimes that just makes me sick. *sigh* Stupid men. Proof positive that they control the fashion industry. :-P
Anyway, this got off topic quite some time ago, so I'm gonna shut up. I will just leave you with this parting shot... the June Chorale concert is going to kick major ass. :D As a sample, three of the songs we're doing are "Zip-a-dee-doo-dah," "In the Mood" and "Everybody Rejoice" from "The Wiz." I am so excited for this concert! ^_____________^
