Ok, so the last time I weighed 150 pounds, I wore a very comfortable size 14. That was in 2001. Today at 150 pounds I can comfortably wear some size 10's. At my goal weight in 1999 I could barely fit into 10's. When I lose 10 more pounds to get to goal this time, I will likely be comfortable in 8's. Apparently some manufacturers made these changes to make women feel better about their pants size. Yeah, well, all it really does is frustrate me because now when I shop consignment, I need to try on items because I don't know if it's a 2008 size 10 or a 2001 size 10.
My weigh in on Saturday was not bad. I lost another pound for a grand total of 22.2. Or 42.2 depending on where you want to start counting from - my top weight or my joining weight watchers weight. I celebrated by having a small popcorn and a large diet pepsi at the American Idol concert. Thanks to my wonderful cousins for giving me the ticket. Unfortunately, another cousin had to get sick in order for me to go, but I wish her a speedy recovery. The concert was excellent. I really like Jason Castro. I enjoy the folksy-relaxing type of music he sings. But I also REALLY like David Cook. He is rather hot. I had fun and it was nice to get out.
Speaking of getting out, I have a pedicure scheduled for next Saturday. I really like pedicures. I also like getting together with Zarah-Zou, so combining 2 of my favorite activities is a win-win. I am thinking I'd like to go with a light pink color this time. I went from Lincoln Park After Dark (a dark black-purple) to Redipus Oedipus, which is a pearly pink - dark red. So I am thinking either a mauve or a light pink. hmmmm..... decisions.
I am getting so frustrated with the myspace mobsters game. I keep getting my azz kicked and all my money is going to equipment upkeep so I can't buy any more properties to make more money. I am (embarrassed to admit) that I am on level 61. That proves that I am pathetic and I have no life. But now I'm rather stuck since I can't win any more fights because I don't have enough equipment. I can't buy more because my money is being sucked up. I guess the only answer is to quit playing???
Next Monday is my one year anniversary. Hard to believe that I've been married for a whole year. We are going to celebrate by going out for Mexican. And I am going to eat the whole basket of chips and white dip. Well, I'll eat chips until the white dip is gone. I don't want any chips without the white dip. And then I am going to have a cheese enchilada. and I'm going to enjoy it. While I completely realize that nothing tastes as good as being thin feels, the white dip comes close. Plus, isn't that what my 35 weekly flex points are for?
Ok, I should probably get some work done....

Can't they make everything a size 2 and then have 2's with a + or something. Oh, I'm a 2++ or something like that. I'm a big fan of vanity sizing, except when it comes to buying patterns - they are still sized based on a 1950's woman. I've bought the wrong size many times.
