Down 10

I have reached a new middle number!
Officially down 10 pounds!
 
A month worth of cutting back on sodas, sweet tea and over-eating, has paid off.
 
Yesterday as I was getting ready for church, I grabbed my pair of dress pants, buttoned them and noticed they were a little more snug than I had thought they should be. I glanced in the closet and noticed another pair of black pants hanging towards the front of my closet. I looked at the pants and realized they were the pair I would normally wear because the other pair was too small. Yes, I was wearing the smaller sized pants and they buttoned! They weren't too tight on my butt and my 'muffin top' was no longer overflowing! Cue the party music!
 
Today I stepped on the scale, expecting it to be remaining at the same number it has the last few days, but lo and behold it showed up a lower number! Whoop, Whoop!
 
I've noticed within the last week that my previous baby bump has thinned down and is not as gross looking as it previously had been. That's a plus in my book.
 
Hoping your weight loss journeys are going well. I know I have definitely been having days where I want the greasiest, nastiest cheeseburger on Earth, but I don't. We just have to remember that having crap like that won't help achieve the goals we're setting and one day down the road we will be thankful we didn't have that greasy, nasty cheeseburger! ;)
 
Maybe I'll have a "-10 picture" posted soon.
