    I am checking in a day earlier since today is my anniversary and we are going out to dinner. I will plan accordingly but it will be safe to say that I will be over in sodium which would mean water weight for tomorrow. I have a week and half to get the last 1.5 off for february and then onderland, here i come.

    After being with this group for 8 months I know my weight loss is slowing as I get closer to goal but I'm staying just to keep myself accountable each week :) So if I only lose 2-3 pounds a month at this point I'm totally fine with it. I've changed my goals to a 1/2 a pound a week weight loss.

    A little blip in the wrong direction, annoying but my own fault. I'm slowly learning what food triggers binge habits and am avoiding buying it.

    On a more positive note I now fit (or a too small for) all the clothes in my wardrobe, except for one dress which remain stubbornly tight over my hips. Had a clear out of the 'too big' and 'just don't suit me no matter what my size' clothes this wkend. Two carrier bags full for the charity shop.
