The 200 mark is looming in sight! The closer I get to it, the more impatient I become!
For the holiday get together at my parents house, I wore my size "20" jeans from Target. I say "20" because they are the same width as some 18's I have bought, but they fight a lot tighter. I was proud to finally be able to zip them and wear them, but they were uncomfortable really fast. I just bought some a pair of 18's and 16's from Old Navy yesterday while on a shopping spree with my niece and the 18's fit perfectly! It was a very strange feeling to enjoy clothes shopping, though it ended quickly as we went into more stores and the large variance in sizes started showing up. I'm still proud of the new clothes I bought and can wear, but it would be nice if all of the store sizes were universal.
I did really well at both of our holiday parties this last weekend, though I went way over on sodium both days and I think that skewed my weigh-in a bit. I am so sick of sodium I could scream. I know if the scale reads higher due to excess water from too much salt that it's just going to come off, but I hate messing up a weekly weigh-in because of it. I also got through packaging up all of the truffles and cookies for people without sampling more than a truffle (and considering how heavenly they are, that's impressive!)
