Good old cycle is always good for some weight loss; down to 190.2. May break 180's tomorrow (I plan to eat smart).
I didn't sleep well but I got eight and a half hours before I got up. I plan to take a walk in about an hour when it's light out. I only eat after 9 and I'm not hungry anyway.
Big goal for days off: pay flood insurance, dishes, cooking, laundry, litter box, packing. I don't plan to change the sheets because scent is very comforting to cats and I want them to have that in my bed. They will miss me. I'm going to miss them too. I'm still going.
Today I will probably go through my bag and restructure a few things. Like my underwear is too big so I will need to size down. Stuff like that. My aunt will move the money from savings to checking today and then I can pay the insurance tomorrow. I need to take one day just to relax, get a nap, etc. not sure which day that will be. I will probably do laundry today.
So that was fun, I got up at 5 hung out around the house for a couple of hours, got dressed in shorts and t shirt, sneakers, went for a half hour walk (did not include warm up and cool down so 40 minutes). It was nice, I felt strong, feet felt great in my $30 shoes. I came home. While undressing I saw my rogue's gallery of "too small" bras I had picked up over the years. Some had been on clearance and too good a deal to miss, some I had bought in my current size but too tight when I tried them on, so into the closet...I took them out and tried them on. 5 of them fit great, including a very nice $20 bra. I don't even have that many wash bags.
I did a load of laundry with some of them and my work t shirts which are hanging up to dry. I will do another load shortly.
Then I was looking in my "shapewear" drawer on the dresser. I had 2 2X in the backpack which are too big, I will have to put them in the garage. Then I had a 3 X which is way too big it was a bigger item and not cheap. I also had one in what size... it was a XL and I checked the manufacturer website and it fits, I will try it on of course. And that's a $20 item. So I got shapewear and bras today in addition to the underwear I got this weekend (from my box). God does take care of the details if you let Him. I have a tight budget, I couldn't have bought any of this but God gave it to me anyway. And I am vain enough I will bring that shapewear thing with me. I have plenty of socks.
I had some cheese and walnuts for breakfast, it sticks around a good long time. I worked on the computer, did some laundry. I turned off the TV when Criminal Minds came on that is too depressing. I decided to take a nap and woke up with a horrific headache. I took some Excedrin. I ate a granola bar in case carbs are too low. I had some very cold water. I am better but not great. I am blaming the shot. But I guess that means I got a good shot if it's affecting me, and I do have today off which is why I planned the timing the way I did. I can afford to lose today.
I do feel a little better though.
Later on I will have a try-on party with the shapewear (let's hope I can get it off!) and jeans. I am 99% sure I am going to wear the gray jeans with the fun embroidery on the airplane. They are a good fit and bootcut, which I like a lot if I have to adjust my compression socks (will wear on airplane). Anything that doesn't fit will go live in the garage. I will also open up my "smaller sizes" box and see what fits out of that. It should be fun but I'm not up for it right now. I don't like baggy pants. I don't like tight pants. Anything in the happy place between will live in my drawer.
I will be back.
So that was interesting. I am a Gloria Vanderbilt size 18. No question they fit great. I got both pair of jeans for $1 each too (new) and they look great.
Here's what I did. I got out the box of smaller clothes. Spotty decided to help.
