My First NSV
My stomach is shrinking! I didn't know it would happen this fast! Last night we went out for dinner. I got a normal amt of food on my plate - as in what I'd have put on it before I started trying to lose. I was going to allow a splurge dinner... BUT I didn't need to splurge. About halfway through my plate I realized I was…
