I'm only 5 lbs from my pre-pregnancy weight! I fit into my Jessica Rabbit dress!

I will probably lose those last 5 lbs at Dragoncon, what with all the walking.

Today I'm down 10 lbs from when I started WeightWatchers after Z was born! Only another 7 to go to meet my goal!

For quite a while, I've been on the mailing list of a French conversation group that meets every other week for brunch at a local restaurant. I've never made any of their meetings, largely bc pre-Z I wasn't likely to be awake at a suitable hour for brunch. But Z has made a morning person of me, so today I packed him into the car seat and we went ( Read more... )

I was a Bad Girl last week when it came to Weight-Watchers. I'd like to blame it on the wedding--you don't get out of a Jewish wedding without downing half your weight in food--but truth to tell, it had just as much to do with the Chinese buffet, the airport food, the Philly cheesesteak, the waffles for breakfast, and the dim sum brunch.

Now that Z and I are done with breastmilk, I've gone back on Weightwatchers. My weight right now is just about where it was the first time I did WW, so I've a general idea of how long it will take me to get back to where I belong ( Read more... )

Aaron agreed to join WeightWatchers once his summer semester ended, and this week he took the plunge. I have promised to help by cooking as much as possible, which will be good for me as well, since I've slipped back into some old, bad habits.

1. Eat on a schedule, then ( Read more... )

I've cancelled my WeightWatchers membership. I've been consistently (and substantially!) under my goal weight for four months, even though I stopped recording everything I eat about a month ago. I'm consisently a size 12-14, and all the old things I wanted to fit back into fit ( Read more... )

Today we had a fitting session for the new concert dresses. I got out of having to drive to the fitting by the sneaky scheme of hosting it in my living room. The new outfit consists of a long black sleeveless georgette gown with a sheer black georgette jacket over top. They're not bad looking for performance uniforms (and they beat what I had to ( Read more... )

Last night kitanzi, autographedcat, and curiousmay9 were over when I was about to start cooking dinner, so naturally I said, "I'm just about to start dinner! Would you like to stay?" *grin*

I made the Chicken Parmigiana recipe I hadn't had all the ingredients for before, and it came out beautifully! Coating it in the oatmeal sealed it enough to keep it moist, and I just ( Read more... )

Today I'm wearing a top I bought long, long ago, but which has never fitted properly. It's no longer too tight!
