Day 103: Reward #1
Posted by sbd4sbp on July 27, 2008
These are my fabulous new shoes! They are beautiful, amazingly comfortable, and they were on sale! What’s better? I got the last pair in this color – they just happened to be my size. I really wanted brown because I tend to wear a lot of earth tones, but the only ones they had on display were turquoise (eek) and a burnt-orange type red. When we asked about the brown ones, they brought me the only ones left in the store. Score! So these weren’t exactly what I was looking for (kind of wanted more gladiator style/jeweley stuff) but after putting them on, I knew they were perfect.
Of course, what should one do after one receives a weight-loss reward? Follow my example, and have a decadent meal! Last night at La Provence, I cheated with: some baguette and crackers (eaten with cheese), two glasses of white wine, and a piece of chocolate mousse cake which Hubbo and I shared. My entree (Couscous Merguez) was cheat-free, as far as I know, unless I am not allowed lamb. It was totally worth it. This morning I weighed 193 lbs and was fine with that; I think I still have time to knock off what I gained.
Might be doing some more Moroccan-style food tonight… We’ll see what the fishmonger has in store for me.
