INCENTIVE TO SEW
Last night I finally hunted through the cobwebs of those cupboards that never see daylight and found my sewing machine. Now this machine has not seen the light of day for 3 years. It has now been centred on my kitchen table for urgently needed alterations. Yes my pants were too big. I wear a lot of pull on straight leg pants to work (in a collection of sizes) but on Wed one pair were almost falling down. So now they are 2 inches smaller. YEH!!!!! I am wearing them today and they are not tight, I hope next month I will need to take them in again.
I know I will not lose weight or not much th sweek due to my gain at the snow and the weekend but I am smaller, I can tell, and I feel really good about it.
On the cooking front, I did not get to peruse Slim Suzys recipes so I made up a couple of my own, and shock horror, didn't burn anything. I made Veal Stroganoff and Chutney noodles...YUMMY!! Over the weekend I will read Suzys and start trying some of them. Feel much better about my culinary efforts managing to make them and not set fire to anything.
I lost my drivers licence last week so had to go and get another one at Vic Roads yesterday. We had to go there to sort out registration details fo rmy sons new car!! Tried to make myself look slimmer for the photo. When I got there they said they would recall my old photo which I thought was one from 4 years ago when I was slimmer than now. (for a very short time when I went to Europe) Anyway they gave it to me and I thought ..yuck, am I/ was I that fat? Then while driving along it clicked. I took out my Boat Licence taken in Dec, before I started this journey. They had used that photo. So now I have a permanent reminder of where I was in Dec, round fat face. I can see the difference and I am not going back there.
Now like everyone else is finding I need to get stuck back into work. Have a good day all of you.
