On the Weigh: Click.

WI: -1.2 Total: -6

It never ceases to amaze me how sometimes this whole process just clicks into place.  It feels easy, it feels right.  It makes you wonder why you ever struggled.  It feels really amazing to be in one of those modes right now.  How refreshing!

On the Weigh: A Pleasant Surprise

WI: -4.4 Total: -4.8

I mean, really. I don't know what happened in the last week, but I want to bottle it. I've been really struggling mentally, but something just clicked earlier in the week. I can't say I did anything differently - ate my normal calories, drank a LOT of water, skipped several workouts. Nothing crazy. But it worked out, I guess. I needed this in a real bad way.

Five for Friday, vol 98

1. You would have thought you'd been crowned champion of the world the way you responded when the new grass shoot for the mower was delivered.

2. No matter how bad a mood I was in from jeans shopping, you refused to say anything but very nice things about how my new pair looks on me.

3. If it weren't for you, I don't think I'd ever eat salad.

4. The dogs smell like your cologne in the morning.

5. You like to send me hard-hitting articles about why adding guacamole to grilled cheese is the best thing ever.
