Shopping!

It was fun to go shopping today! My pants size has dropped 2 sizes and sweaters are smaller, too. I was able to get some really good deals at the "After Christmas" sales. I didn't want to spend too much because I don't think I'll be in this size too long! I have piles of clothes to give away (and some are already spoken for!!!).

It has been great to add things to my diet! Christmas dinner tasted so good! I tried a little sweet potatoes and a little cauliflower, and I couldn't pass up a taste of stuffing and pumpkin pie! But a taste was all I could manage. The turkey (protein) pretty much filled me up and I didn't want to be uncomfortable.

I've started the arm exercises. I'm using the bands Lena got when she was in physical therapy for her shoulder. It adds a few minutes to my "workout" time. I'm still walking a mile and a half in 30 minutes. I tried adding a bit of an incline one day. I'll try that again some day, but not right away!

I'm feeling great and excited heading into 2011! Happy New Year!
