Belt and Watch

On December 1 I had to buy a new size 42 belt after breaking the last cheapy one from Marshall's. It's a dozen days later, and I'm already on to the last notch of the belt, and there is a size 40 waiting in the wings that was purchased months ago. It's time to bust that bad boy out!

Also tonight, I maneuvered another link off my wrist watch. The last time this happened it was 6 months ago, but lately the watch has felt much looser on me. So instead of bringing it the jeweler's and paying them five bucks to get that link out, I cleverly bent a paperclip, grabbed my pliers and MacGyvered that link right off! I'm almost as proud of the fact that my body is slimming down as the ingenuity I discovered in myself to fix my own watch!

    Losing nearly 80 lbs is an amazing achievement. You should be very proud of yourself. I can safely say that all your MFP friends are very proud of you.

    Keep it up! Imagine what it's going to feel like losing 75 lbs more and achieving your goal!

    Good stuff, my man. I actually bought a new belt the other day as well, but lost it some point between the car and my house. I don't think I've ever lost something so fast.
