I had hoped to be able to tell you that I was at my drivers license weight this week. I hoped to be able to tell you of the years of renewing my license at the DMV and laughing nervously when asked if there was anything that had changed. Of looking wistfully at the drivers license weight and knowing that I would likely never touch that again. I wanted to title my post "drivers license weight!!!", but I can't. Why? Because I slid RIGHT PAST that weight and am now LOWER! I think I have had the same weight on it since I moved here 14 years ago...and I probably rounded down then! So, in case anyone is counting, I've lost 17 pounds so far, from June 14 to July 31. Whoohoo!
My clothes are starting to look a little ridiculous on me, being so baggy, so I took a little trip through my closet. (I should mention that I hate to spend money on clothes, so rarely throw anything out.) There are a number of suit jackets that have been too uncomfortable to wear for a couple of years, being too tight through the arms and shoulders. All of them are nice and loose, now, and some are too loose. Unfortunately, it's not really suit jacket weather right now, so it will be a few weeks before I wear them to work. There is one double breasted jacket that I have worn hanging open, unbuttoned, for years. I was able to button it comfortably today. Last summer, I did a very unusual purging of my closet and got rid of a few things that I wish I had now. Oh well.
I would recommend this empower food plan to anyone who needs some extra help to lose weight. To those who feel that weight loss is really beyond your grasp; who feel that it would be nice, but you know in your heart that it's just not going to happen. Well, it's happening for me, and it could for you, too.
