Food Journal 3/9/09

I am so sore from my looong walk yesterday. My shins and lower back are killing me; the shins I can understand, but the back I don't get. I feel like this is the week for me to finally drop into the 160's. Looking at my weekly weigh in, I've only been losing about a pound per week and this Friday I was 170.5, so I'm bound to drop, right? It's gonna be a yeah right unless I can get myself in check...
On a different front, my boyfriend finally yielded to my pleading and got a full length mirror for our bathroom. I know this may be strange, but I haven't seen myself in a full length mirror in a pretty long time. I never know how my outfit looks, freakin' frustrating, but off topic. So we have one in our bathroom now and I thought I'd be horrified. To my surprise, I think that mirror and I are going to be best friends. I'm actually liking what I see! It's absolutely crazy. I know I will fit into medium tops in another month and my stomach is really shaping up too. I'd say my focus should be on abs and thighs right now. I took a progress pic in the same outfit I used a while ago and I'm going to post them for your viewing pleasure (or horror, lol)...
