The Friday Report - A little late

I know I promised it would be on Fridays. But Friday was Stephen's birthday, and I really wasn't home much. Plus I've been kind of sick this week, and I had to work yesterday. Those are the excuses, now on to the fun!

Last week I mentioned my first pair of size 14s in... I don't even know how long. At least 10 years. But lets be honest, I still thought it was a fluke. That the Dressbarn was just one of those stores that made me feel good about myself. Not that it didn't already. Anyway, out of curiosity (and because they were having an awesome sale) I went to Kohls a couple days later. And came home with two pairs of jeans, that look and feel amazing. One was indeed a size 14. The other was a size 12 (EEP!) but I'm pretty sure there aren't many brands of jeans where the 12s are like that.

So then, I found myself at target looking for exercise pants (because it was a little early, and Ross was still closed). But once I was trying something on, I had to try on something cute too. I've always had a problem with pants at Target. They never fit. Until now. I tried on a pair of grey dress pants, and they looked amazing. Size 14. But I didn't buy them. I had to stop somewhere, because the way things are going, this revolution in my pant size is bound to happen again.

On a slightly frustrating note - the 200 lb mark is kicking my butt. Every day this week I've run circles around it (even saw a 198 on the scale!) but after being a little lower than 200, I keep going back to a little higher. I've been surprised at how unstable body weight actually is. Wednesday is my day to be weighed and measured at Curves, so my goal by then is still to be at the 200 mark, with my shoes on. It's been a few days since I've worked out because I've been sick. It's closed tomorrow, and Tuesday is going to be a LONG day at work. But I'm pretty sure I can make it.
