I realize that I've been a bit lax in updating my weigh-in status. While I was dealing with the unknown lactose intolerance, it was so disheartening to keep going up and down the same 2 pounds that I really, really didn't want to post about that. Thank goodness that is all taken care of!

As of this morning, my mid-week weigh-in, I am currently down 17.2 pounds. Yeah for me! I am really looking forward to hitting that 20 pound mark. It's a nice self-confidence and motivation factor to be able to say that you've lost 20 pounds. I'm hoping that in a week or two I'll be able to do that.

I went shopping in my closet last night when I was supposed to be trying to sleep. That's what I get for watching a show about people who believe in ghosts. Ugh. Anyways, I went through my tote full of my winter tops and tried on all of the school-worthy ones. I now have two piles, ones that fit right now, and ones that will fit with another 5-10 pounds gone. I was excited to wear one of my previous favorite fall/winter sweaters to school today, and it was a size Large! Wahoo! I'm hoping that I'll very quickly be out of all of my XL tops and into my L ones. Some of my fancy cardigans will take a bit longer to be wearable though. My chest just doesn't seem to be shrinking like the rest of me. I'm truly hoping and praying that it doesn't turn out like the past two times I've lost a decent amount of weight. The rest of me shrunk, and my chest went up a cup size, each time! I'm willing to give at least half of them away to a good home; I'd kill to be just a C cup.
