MUSIC DAY... I have a new trick... and WEEKLY ASSIGNMENTS...

So... my body is definitely changing.  Although my starting weight was 237 for this weight loss experiment, this past summer, I hit 249.  Yeah... those numbers just got stuck in my throat as I tried to say them.  So, as I sit at 228 this morning, I have lost over 20 pounds from my highest weight, and I am feeling differences in my body...

... my size 18 pants and shorts are falling off... I'm still transitioning (yes, still a bit scared to commit to size 16), but half of my pants/shorts are NOW SIZE 16!

... my bras are getting loose in the cup... THANK GOD!  I CAN'T WAIT to go from these size 42DD back to my size 36C!!!  (SERIOUSLY... my running bra is soooo tight to control "the girls" that I can hardly breathe!)

... LAST NIGHT... I found myself COMFORTABLY SLEEPING ON MY BELLY!!!  This... is ... HUGE!  I LOVE sleeping on my belly, but haven't been able to do so for a very long time.  My belly had been getting in the way of comfy belly sleep!  So, as I was laying there, thinking about this momentous occasion, the most RANDOM song popped into my head and I just KNEW that it would be the one to add to the NEW AND POSSITIVLY IMPROVED Soundtrack in my head... 

... if you are a child of the 80's... and you loved Richard Blade and KROQ music... then you know this one...

... Burning Sensations, "Belly of the Whale."  Don't take this one literally... it is a song that I loved in the 80's that made me CRACK UP as I was trying to think of a song with the word "belly" in it.  Leave it at that and enjoy this really silly and perfectly 80's song!

WEEKLY ASSIGNMENTS...  February 8th - 14th

*  Lose 2 pounds

*  Define something silly that you are looking forward to "getting back" as you go through your weight loss... like I did with getting to sleep on my belly again... my next one... tying my tennis shoes without having to hold my breath because my belly is in the way...

*  Share a giggle with your spouse... share something you saw... something you read... something that made you crack up and will give your spouse a "belly laugh," too (yes, pun intended!!!)

Make it a GREAT DAY, Everyone!
