C2D11-14 Staying the same

     I posted the other day about how I need to re-think the basics of this plan and get back to C1.  I plan to do that on Monday once this cycle is over and I get through the wedding that I have coming up over the weekend.  I have had 9 consecutive weeks of losses and even with a plateau for 3-4 days it has generally gone down.  This week it looks like I am staying the same.  I haven't been bad per se but I have eaten out a handful of times.  However, even soups and salads out contain more calories and added fat than I might put in at home.  So I weigh in this afternoon at WW and am expecting to be the same.  Weight loss is not rocket science, but it is hard work.  I am still down 31 pounds lower than I was in mid June when I began, and for that I am thankful. 
     I was drooling over the Lily Pulitzer sale online and really thought hard about buying myself an incentive gift to encourage myself to keep going and keep my eye on the prize.  That got me thinking about measurements.  I was told at WW when I began to take them, b/c there may be weeks where the scale doesn't budge but inches are disappearing.  I finally decided to do those this morning.  Sorta wish I had done it 31 pounds ago to see the difference but oh well, I still have a ways to go and will certainly see my changes in inches from here on out.  From there I decided out of curiosity to go and look for the Lily size chart to see exactly how many inches I need to lose to fit into a size I would be happy in.  It was eye opening and made me glad I didn't buy the dress ahead of time.  I need to lose about 7 inches in my chest alone.  UGH.  I can think about my waist and hips getting smaller, but my chest doesn't seem to shrink no matter what I do.  And for those of you who might be jealous, don't be.  It makes dress shopping a nightmare!  B/c manufacturers make the clothes to fit your bust.  So things that fit my bust well generally are billowy and frumpy everywhere else.  Thank goodness for lycra and stretchable fabrics that give a little.  Anyway, there is a Lily warehouse sale in the spring, perhaps I will be buying then amongst all the other Lily nuts.  
     I have had a wonderful week with my girls and am enjoying the last weeks of summer.  There are only 11 more days till labor day and I still need to lose 4 more pounds to make my next goal.  Hopefully kicking it into high gear come Monday will suck em' right off me.  A and I had 2 wonderful days in NYC together this week and though I was physically exhausted at the end of each day my feet didn't hurt like they had in the past, again another sign of positive happy changes from the 31 pounds gone from my frame.  So, I am ok this week staying the same and continue on one meal and one day at a time.
