Fabulous news!

I just had to post this one. God has been very gracious and I have lost a bit of weight this summer through no intentional effort of my own. I believe the increased activity of living in the city, combined with working an insane number of hours a week has been the best diet yet:-) I haven't weighed myself since I was back in MO at Memorial Day, but I am guessing that I lost between 10 and 20 lb since then.

Well, this weight-loss has meant that my clothes don't fit me and I have gradually purged my closet down to almost nothing. This resulted in few play clothes and almost no work clothes. Old Navy had a big sale and I am proud to say that all the clothes I bought were either a size 16 or a size Large. This may not seem like a big deal to you, but I literally can't remember the last time I wore a size large (2001, maybe?). I will try to get some pics up in the near future. I feel fabulous and I think I look pretty good;-)

Wow! Living in the city, walking, public transportation--it's great! I lost about 20 lbs after we moved to Kyiv--and gained it back when we moved to the FL suburbs. Way to go!
