I STILL haven't weighed myself. 4 weeks and counting. Yay! Went to Athleta with some dear friends today. TOM started THIS morning, and I hadn't tried on clothes since I started this experiment. And it wasn't totally traumatizing! Still fit into the same size for the most part...so that was a relief.

The best NSV though, was what happened after shopping. LUNCH! One of my good friends and I went to Chipotle and I got a burrito bowl! This may sound silly...but before I'd always get the salad and keep it as low cal as possible. This time I had beans AND rice, and enjoyed every single bite...knowing I still had PLENTY of calories left over. YAY FOR FOOD!:drinker:

    Isn't that the greatest? Man, to just go places and enjoy your food. I find I just don't overindulge anymore...what I want I can have and it usually fits in my macros. And if not, a spike day:drinker:

    Ahhh.. I miss Chipotle and Noodles & Company....It was always nice to be able to get healthy fast food. Not so much of that here on the island where everything is meat (in a sauce that is half sugar), 2 scoops rice (2 cups of white rice) and potato salad (with potatoes and macaroni and plenty of mayo!)

    Good job hanging in there and on your NSV's!

    very nice!!! Eating rocks! I'm coming home from vacation right now, and while I am so ready to clean up my diet, it was so refreshing to relax and enjoy a few treats and not feel like the total outcast!

    Even better is my no scale rule as I go through this first phase. Before I would panic about how the sodium would effect my daily weigh in. NO MORE!

    That's great! You are really sticking to that scale ban too. I'm impressed. I'm a bit jealous that you have an athleta store. I need to find one of those.

    We JUST started getting them. We went to Georgetown (DC) for a last hurrah before the kids are out of school. As an instructor I get 30% off ANYTHING in the store. One of the MANY perks! ;-)
