Catching up and notches

I didn't report in last week cuz I was going out of town. But I did weigh in, and I had lost 6 pounds for that week. Today was another weigh in and I lost 4 pounds this week.

So, overall, I'm down 25 pounds in 4 weeks. Wahooo!

Being off of Diet Coke hasn't been too bad, but I still crave it every now and then.

Part of the fun of loosing weight is having your clothes get looser, and getting back into clothes you used to fit in. Belts fall into this too.
Below is a picture of the belt I have on today.

It's a little hard to see, but when I first got this belt a few months ago, I was using the second to the last notch. You can see it has the most wear. As I added pounds, I had to go to the last notch. Crap! Then what, I either have to drill a new hole, or buy a new belt. Well, as I've been coming back down, after 2 weeks of eating right and exercising, I went back to notch#2. And then today, another 2 weeks later, I went to notch #3 (it hasn't been used before - cool). And so it goes.
Many times you hear (with respect to sports) "It's a game of inches". In this case it's true. Taking care of business 1 notch at a time.
