Thank God this week is almost over!
It's been a tough week, both work- wise and personally: getting over this LOOOONG cold, hubs and I didn't get to see each other basically at all and I ran into another blip with my research. (Why didn't anyone tell me to have a backup plan for the backup plan? And no, "be flexible" isn't adequate warning.)

The upsides:
-I have exercised every day this week, and my menus have been varied and interesting. (Score one for being able to work from home most days this week.)
-I had a huge non- scale victory: I've officially lost a pants size! (I actually skipped TWO sizes in jeans. Wowza.)
-Though I didn't lose a full pound this week (.7), the scale is still trending downward. Works for me!
I also had a really great meeting on Wednesday with the folks I may be working with next year.

I broke a personal rule with these jeans, purchased for me by Lovebug: I HATE whiskering. You know, the fading and stripes added to make jeans look more worn? Guess what, manufacturers? THAT ALSO MAKES PEOPLE'S LEGS LOOK WIDE! I am lacking in the hips department, so I thought it wouldn't be a big deal, but alas! These are going back. I'll trade them in for my old dark wash, thank you very much.
Thanks for your previous comments on my eating plan mishmash. I used to be a hard core, by-the-book dieting person, so I always feel a little strange describing my current blending of plans/principles/ calorie counting/ carb watching. Thing is...if it didn't work then, it's not gonna work now, so I'm trying to shake things up!
have a great weekend,
