The Needle Moved!

For the first time, I went down a pound today, Saturday, 7/09. Wow. I wonder if partly that's the effect of going off the OTC meds that could have been making me retain water. I do feel much "harder"--trimming here and there, feeling better in clothes, etc. I sure don't feel the weight I'm at, so if the scale will eventually move to accommodate my brain, that'd be nice!

Okay: addendum. Took the plunge after the yoga conditioning today and stepped on the scale again, just to be sure I was down by 1; I'm now down by 3! The needle will eventually move if the work continues and the calories stay down. And yesterday, despite the temptation of Uno's deep dish pizza, I ordered an individual for Dad and me and our movie date, only had one out of six pieces (Dad had two!), and gave the remaining three to Andrew. And I was really not very tempted to eat more. Also ordered a caesar salad to supplement.

Found out from Andrew he's on a vegetarian diet, so I think this is more incentive to keep up the mainly veggie routine I've been following. Just have to learn my protein sources. But yay!
