Slowing Progress & Baggy Pants

Day 8 - 32.4 lbs to go (down 7.4)

Is feels inevitable and yet disappointing that the progress appears to have slowed this morning.  Only .2 down from yesterday, and yet... I do understand that I'm still headed in the right direction, and that during this experiment I'm likely to have days -- even perhaps strung together -- when I will not lose anything at all (and God forbid, perhaps could even gain an ounce or two here and there). 

I ate lunch at Purple Cafe, which I love, love, love... and when they didn't have anything I could eat I cobbled together a salad for lunch with bits and pieces of different offerings.  It was quite yummy.

An apple with peanut butter for a mid-afternoon snack.

Veggie, brown-rice sushi for dinner and a banana... and I'm good for the night.  Fully sated.

On the clothing front, I get less puffy with every day that passes.  I wore my (relatively) new black capri trousers to work today.  I was able to put them on without unbuttoning or unzipping them, and by the time I'd driven to work they were quite baggy.  I'm going to try putting them in the dryer after the next wash to see if they'll shrink up a bit... definitely not sad about it, though, if they have to shuflfe off to GoodWill.
