judecorpToday I went out to lunch with my dad. He commented that it looked like I lost some weight. Now, he always says this, and usually it isn't true. But this time I said, 'Yeah, I think so, I can wear some pants I haven't been able to wear comfortably in a while.' I say this while wearing jeans I haven't worn in two years.
Dad says, 'What have you lost - 20 pounds? 30?' I'm all, 'Yeah right, Dad, whatever.'
But I go to Grandma's, to take a shower to go out. I only ever weigh myself here, because no one I know owns a scale (Heavens know I sure don't.). I was last here in March, the middle of March, right after Winter Quarter.
It is 31 August. I am 18 pounds lighter than I was last time I was here.
I kick so much ass.

Date: 2001-08-31 09:44 pm (UTC)I mean, the only thing that would make me happier than losing 18 pounds is turning around and doing it again. *sigh*

Date: 2001-09-01 07:24 am (UTC)1) The Goth Diet - this is entirely due to my friend Mark, who has completely altered my sleep schedule to where I'm happiest staying up until 4 or 5 am and waking up at noon. I would stay up, sleep through breakfast and lunch, and eat small dinners. Thus, less calories or something. And self-loathing! (Okay, not really, cause I don't make a very good goth.)
2) Getting Dumped - now, I don't recommend this to anyone. But since A. and I went south, I've spent a lot of nights walking and walking and walking just to get out of the apartment at night.

But seriously - the breakup of my marriage has done wonders on my weight, apparently. I had no idea it was that much. I thought it was 5 pounds.
