The further I get from the two hundreds the more secure I feel in one-derland. Kind of like the feeling after you've been violently ill with the stomach flu and have managed to keep your first bites of toast down for an hour or so.... "hey, I might really be ok!". Yup, that's me lol. My feet are firmly planted in the soil here, throwing down some roots and calling it home. I would say go big or go home and shoot for the 90's, but nah, nobody likes an overachiever anyway. (that was a joke)

Today I am celebrating both my ability to cross my legs with ease and be a 'lady' as well as the extra room in my recliner. Hence, the new profile picture. The only room there used to be in that recliner was the three inches for my mountain dew bottle wedged very firmly between my thigh and the arm of the chair. That's the truth. Hooray NSV.

Yesterday wasn't too shabby. ATF (well, if everyone else is doing it...) went well also. My husband wanted sausage gravy and biscuits for dinner, which is all dandy but I always struggle with portion control on high carb meals. I improvised and had a huge chef salad while I was making the biscuits and gravy, then my portion didn't seem so meager. No snacking although I was up very late last night. That was all self control, late night munchies are generally my weakness. Luckily I'm not much of a late night girl too often nowadays. We stayed up late watching a "The hunger Games" marathon, followed by our recent purchase "Catching Fire". Great movies, but do yourself a favor and read the books if you're interested and haven't already. I am a book worm, they were excellent.

I bought a couple new shirts, all size 15/17. Whoop Whoop, they were three dollars a piece on the clearance rack lol. Wearing a new outfit today when I head out to visit my grandma in a bit. She's leaving for PA to visit her sister for a month or so, so I best get my ass over there to say goodbye. Of course she has like thirty grandkids that she was very involved with while they were growing up that now as adults are 'too busy' for her. Ugh, that pisses me off. Another topic entirely though.

Better get my meal planning out of the way before I officially start my day.

<3 Have a good day loves
