in which Monday and I get along . . .

I had a couple non-scale victories today:

While getting dressed for work this morning, I realized that my 11/12 slacks looked utterly ridiculous with gaps of material bulging around my belt, so I went to the thrift store this afternoon to try to find something to get me by until I settle in at a healthy weight (or have $$--whichever blessed event occurs first). You know what? Apparently I wear a 6 or an 8, depending on whether the brand accommodates curves. I’m a bit confused because I haven’t actually lost any inches from my hips (and only a couple from my waist), but I’ll take it.

Also, I have a short (2.5 mile) loop that I run a few times per week. Despite the fact that my ipod battery crapped out half a song into my workout, I shaved a minute off my best time.

It’s been a good day.
