notelaine's Journal, 04 Dec 15

Saw a new low on the scale today! Might be just a water weight fluctuation, but it isn't my weigh-in day regardless. Still pretty exciting.

So tonight I have the new guy I'm seeing coming over for dinner, which, not to toot my own horn, but is going to be so crazy tasty. Making veal marsala with mashed new potatoes, roasted asparagus, and this insanely good homemade bread. Definitely a cheat meal for me, but the gym challenge I'm on allows 1-2 planned cheat meals a week.

But, that's not the point of my story. The pressure of making a good first impression has led me to clean like a mad woman. In doing so, I found in my spare room closet an old box of clothes I had meant to take to the thrift shop at some point last year. In there was stuff I had cleaned out because it was too small and seeing it in my closet every day was really killing my motivation, because I kept feeling like it would be impossible to fit into them.

So I tried them on, and everything is too big. This included items that I had freshman year of college, when I was at the weight I am now. Clearly, I have put on a bit of muscle!! I'm pretty damn excited about this. A few of the really nice items I think I'm going to have tailored, but the rest will still be destined for the thrift store.

Happy Friday!!

Ha, that takes me back to when I was dating my husband. My son saw me cleaning one day and said "oh, is Rich coming over tonight?" Like I never cleaned unless he was coming?!?!?! HaHa. The first thing I made him was lasagne, we've been married 15 years.... Have a great date and ENJOY yourself!
