Thank God I wasn't wearing a skirt!!
lol ok, so this is kind of a weird success, but I'm viewing it as a success none the less! I've noticed my pants are all getting pretty loose on me since I've been losing weight.

2 Liters BEFORE breakfast!
I watched FOOD MATTERS last night for the first time... wow! What they say makes so much sense. One of the things that they stressed was that they urged people to drink 2 liters of water BEFORE you even eat anything in the morning. It's supposed to help cleanse out your bowels.

Listen friends, it's OK to splurge on food once in a while! I'm saying this because I see way too many people on here that get so stressed out and worried about it. If it's a special occasion for you, and you're going out to eat, just ENJOY the moment and the friends and family you're with. You're NOT going to gain 5…
