On the plus side...

[navygreen]

It seems that depression is one helluva weight loss plan. As of today, I'm now down 21.5 pounds. This weight loss has all occurred in the last five weeks.

I wore my 'Flake' shirt (as seen in the icon above) yesterday, and it was literally too big on me. I've had that shirt for almost two years now, and it was tight enough to show "backfat" last year. Now? It just hangs.

I'm feeling mighty good tonight, as I've just put on a pair of brand-new jeans in the next size down (my other pair of jeans - which I just bought seven weeks ago - are now so loose that they literally slip off of me as I walk. I can shimmy out of them with the buckle and zipper still done, even). And these jeans look GOOD tonight. Not only that, but I'm wearing a brand-new sweater that I purchased for myself last weekend, and the sweater is down a size, too.

I feel pretty tonight. That's an improvement in itself.

Maybe this post should be titled, "On the minus side...", eh?

Especially when you mostly feel like crap. It's a nice change!
