Getting there!

237 lbs. at my weigh-in yesterday. Not quite as low as my goal, but getting there! We'll see if we can do any better this week. So far, we are 2 lbs. behind. I got a Victoria's Secret catalog yesterday and love some of the bathing suits and clothes in there, and I'm hoping I can wear some of them on our Bahamas trip... but who knows? I'm trying to be optimistic because it will get me farther, but I'm doubting with as big as I am now that I will be able to reach that goal by the Bahamas. I've been doing really well, though! The last 2 days I've walked the dogs up and down the street (not far/long, but better than nothing!) and have been eating much less and better than I had been. A lot of goldfish and navel oranges, but better than fast food and other fatty foods....and not nearly as MUCH, which is the key to my success I think.

In other news, Valentine's Day was nice. We had the family over the night before and I made pork tenderloin, green beans and wild rice and a salad, my mom brought chocolate cream pie (I gave half of my piece to my dad) and we played Scategories. It was a lot of fun.

My birthday is coming up soon! I've decided I want to go to one of the two local Ethiopian restaurants. Hopefully everyone will be brave and come along because I think they will all enjoy it. I'm looking forward to trying injera and eating with my hands and seeing what it's like!

Also debating getting my hair highlighted again like I used to. Kinda bored with my hair right now. I always say I am going to let it turn back to its natural color, but it never happens... and I think I looked best with blonde hair. Hmm.

Other than that, just school and work going on right now. Nothing too exciting!
