New month, new stats...

I weighed this morning and as predicted, I missed my goal of being out of the 170s by about a pound.  I'm not complaining because it's still a loss and I'll just continue to plug away until I get there.  At this point, I've lost just over 11 pounds and am about 16 pounds from my 155 goal.  I think before I would have scoffed at a mere 11 pounds because it doesn't seem very significant over a two month period.  But, I know that slow and steady is much better than rapid and drastic so I'm satisfied.  I'm especially satisfied because I've had to change so few of my eating habits.  It's funny that now when I'm faced with dessert, I really think about it where as before I would have just shoved it in and not worried about the consequences.  Setting that 24 desserts for the year goal has made me second guess every sweet decision... is it really worth one of my 24 desserts for a moment of yum?  Usually not which is why two months are gone and I've only eaten 3 sweet things!

I haven't the time this morning to give a complete run down of stats but my current weight is 170.8 (down 11.2 from January 1) and most of my measurements are close to the same, although my waist measured at 30.25 this morning which is down a bit I think.  I'll be more accurate with my next post.  Happy March!
