Day 78

I don't really celebrate with alcohol but I do celebrate with food and lets just say that I’ve partied all weekend. I’ve had pizza, chocolate, a red velvet cupcake, and tacos. ALL trigger foods for me. I am tracking all of it but it ends tonight. I won’t feel bad about it unless I don’t work out tomorrow. So I have to go to the gym or I will probably start to feel bad about myself. Exercise is usually a pull on the leash for me. I still have not had diet coke and that was tough because everyone knows that tacos are not the same without diet coke.

I skipped Zumba this morning because I went shopping. I haven’t been shopping in months. Honestly, it’s probably been a few years. I order everything online so that I can try it on at home and then return it if it doesn’t fit. My wardrobe has consisted of the Gap because it’s free shipping and I can return it to any Gap. Plus, their clothes run big and they sell size 16 ankle. Well, I started trying on raincoats in the REGULAR section, not plus size and guess what? I not only fit into the extra large but I FIT a LARGE!!! I haven’t had options in the regular size section in years! I couldn’t believe it. I was actually having fun and modeling different coats for Ellison. Can you believe it?! I had options! I almost bought another black raincoat but instead I bought a bright coral! I want to be seen! Have you had enough exclamation points?! It was so incredibly awesome to not feel sad while trying on clothes. This is motivation enough to keep going.

Tomorrow I will either go to spinning or kickboxing. I have to go to the gym. I will clean the hell out of my house so my whole week doesn’t consist of cleaning. I will also get my kitchen ready for a successful week.
