Another goal is set!! I'm on a roll....

Well, I just finished cleaning out my closet...wow! I had a lot of clothes that shrunk over the past year. hmm... Goodwill is going to make out like a bandit. Hunky said that if I wanted too I could buy new clothes with some of our tax rebate. I just haven't done it yet because I want to loose the extra weight and then I'll be able to buy prettier things. Have you ever noticed that when you get fat...the clothes get bigger and uglier? Yep, it's true.

I made a new goal for my clothes though. I want to fit into a size 8 again. That would be a major accomplishment. I'm currently a size 12 (in stretchy material things). I have a lot of size 10 in my closet but nothing in size 8 anymore. It would be great to be able to go get an entire new closet full of clothes for school next year. I LOVE Christopher & Banks and Coldwater Creek. Now don't get me wrong, I would rather shove hot pokers into my eyeballs versus go to the mall...I'm not what you call a fashionista but I am rather pumped to be able to treat myself and my new body to some fun when/if I loose the weight. That's my new goal...a closet full of new, fun, exciting, THIN clothes for the upcoming school year. Gosh, that's two goals I've set for myself...I'm on a roll!

Speaking of rolls, I'm really craving one. Hmm...that isn't good. I've heard the dieting advice of don't ignore a craving because it'll end up dooming you but then again, if it isn't good for me...I shouldn't eat it, right? As you know, I've totally cut off sodas (Had a major caffeine headache for two days...ick). I'm slowly drinking my dreaded water..haven't quite gotten up to the 64 ounces a day and am not holding my breath to get to it either. I do drink water with lemon/lime in it and that helps some. I also drink 1-2 glasses of decaf ice tea to help out. I know it isn't the same but hey! I'm trying. I can tell a difference in some parts of my body and I know that the caffeine wasn't good for me.

Well, I emailed some friends last night to have them come look at my blog. That was a huge accomplishment. I was going to keep it a secret but I'm finding out that I am really needing the support. I also visited some other people's blogs to see what they have accomplished. Wow, those ladies have sure come a long way. I left them a message and invited them to come here to see where I am at. Hope they stop by for quick chat and a cold glass of water. ;0)
