No one will want to hear me complain about the following topic- so don't tell me I didn't warn you...
So. I hopped on the scale this morning- you all have heard about the 4 Hour Body I've been up to. And I've been feeling a little puffy the past two weeks- I thought it was because I went up to two cheat days a week, added some dairy and now bananas and apples back to my diet. So to my pleasant surprise, I was seriously caught off guard when I looked down. What where those numbers!? I was about 147 lbs. this morning. I haven't seen the likes of the mid-140s since never- when I weighed that much I must not have paid attention so we'll ball-park it to about 16 some odd years ago. (Pre-Nifty Fifty dining 2x/week in high school when my then BF got his license. Thanks for the 15 pounds, oreo shake and cheese fries!)
I digress.
So since I've done the 4HB, I've dropped down to this number...and I can't keep pants on. Shorts keep falling off my hips. The once prominent shelf I had on my rear is much smaller. It's annoying...but you know what else is annoying? When someone complains out loud about how much weight they lost when that was the goal in the first place.
We all hate those bitches- so I'm not trying to be one of them.
Rather than complain, I think I might seize this as an opportunity to get this ill-fitting stuff out of my house- I know me and Shannon are trying to have a yard sale soon but I'm not sure how getting these University and sport specific sweat suits will sell- so do I hold onto them? Or make with the donating STAT?
I'm also not in a position to buy a whole new wardrobe so I'd love it if someone sent me to Old Navy with a checklist of items to buy that are interchangeable because I'm interested in having 4 pairs (shirts/shoes/necklaces/sweaters/etc) of pants, and when they're dirty, washing them rather than going out to buy new ones...because I'm drowning in dirty laundry as we speak.
Help me out friends-
1. please send me your top five needs for spring- and all time- add links (and COUPONS!!) and suggestions.
2. get ready for the unveiling of the room inspired by the moodboard Shannon made me(if I can get my shit together this weekend...I'm real busy with work and Phillies ticket.)
Hallelujah hollar back.

You and your man... both of you using your precious time to help others is very inspiring!
Oh and I'm excited for the room reveal. Giddy actually.

I agree with Shannon. It's a *great* problem to have.
