    what a great problem to have, eh? I’m not a good enough seamstress to take in pants/shorts but that is an idea. I wonder what a seamstress would charge? The pants that are too big are my nice wool ones. Might be worth it.

    I’ve been enjoying a week without cravings or much food noise. I have no idea how long it will last but I’m taking full advantage of it. I think my dietician is going to be horrified when she sees what I’ve been eating. Or mostly not eating to be more precise. I’ve had such a hard time limiting calories on the high food noise weeks that I’ve gone to the extreme and am eating very little in hopes of moving the scale.

    Loose clothes should be a big celebration!! Congrats @totameafox and @pamelaory!! Taking things in can be such a lifesaver through this journey.

    I threw away a whole crate of clothes in transition. I was downsizing them when I went from 192 to 150 lbs. Now my plan is to get to 150-140lbs again. those were some cool clothes. Oh well.

    I logged on.

    Recently I have not been logging into MFP at all. No drive to do so. I have been dealing with health issues and just don't care. Too tired. Too much pain.

    So today I logged on just to read threads and maybe join in. No logging of food or anything. But the fact I am on is step one.

    offers Athijade hugs … the fact that you get up when you are feeling down is awesome! I've been busy. I also didn't track my calories Sun, mon, tues or wednesday and the scale still went down. my birthday is in a couple of days. I will finally be telling the truth when i say I am 52! I am looking forward to a bacon and egg salad sandwich. I'll also be picking up some cupcakes and halo top ice cream. My aunt is going to pay for me to have my toes done. I want to refuse but she insists on doing something because I'm helping her with her humans. Anyway. I hope all of you are doing well.

    Things will get better Athijade.

    I don't know how much I weight right now but i still feel skinny! I just need to give myself some time to undo the little havoc my birthday foodcation caused before stepping on the scale again. I was so happy to see 210.x that I don't want to ruin that memory. Anyways I hope all of you had as good of a week as I did!
