Well, not a new me. It will end up being the old me with a new look! I’ve visited Value Village a few times, looking for size 20 pants in an appropriate shade of blue so that I can wear them to work without creating a fuss. No luck. Saturday it was snowing yet again in Calgary, so I had no inclination to walk there in that form of precipitation. I did enough walking just doing the errands near Chinook Mall. I thought I would check out Sears and see if they had any good deals. They did – and pants a size smaller with elastic waist. I think these might last me a bit!
I imagine some might think this is not something to make public or “brag” about, but it is a bit of a deal for me and I’m excited!
Of course I don’t intend to be in them for very long, but it is nice to see that number going down as well. And with the elasiticized waist they might hang around for a few sizes! They ended up costing just over $15, so not too expensive. I have yet to embrace the feeling of loose pants. Sweat I can tolerate, too much looseness, no. So gotta do what I’ve got to do.
Enough bragging on the new size – here are the “stats” for the week. I have to say that I’m excited by them! I just may achieve the mini-challenge I set for myself – to get under 230 by my birthday in 12 days.

Of course, this means it’s another “red envelop” day! I love these surprises that I get to open when I reach a “mini-milestone!” I’ll share the recipe another day, but here’s my inspiration for the day –
Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending! Maria Robinson
I can’t go back and change what I should have or could have done. I can get up today, and do the next right thing, and change my future!
Have a wonderful day!
