Diet

I went through all of my clothing the other day. It was a big project, and kind of emotionally draining.  I remember when I used to be able to wear almost everything I owned.  No longer.

I did discover that I can now wear my prepregnancy sweatpants, which I couldn't a few months ago.  So that's pretty exciting.

But most of my clothes are unusable, as of now.  I'm packing them for Texas anyway.  A lot can happen in 5 months, right? I'll look at the too-small clothes as inspiration.  I'm not really into long-term dieting, but Zephan likes to talk me into short spurts of themed eating.  Not usually anything too weird. 

This week, it's the "no processed carbs" diet.  I can eat as much as I want, but nothing with flour and nothing like candy or soda. So I've been pounding down all kinds of rice, quinoa, fruit, veggies, and popcorn.  And looking longingly at bread, tortillas, and chips (not to mention the box of M&Ms and Fererro Rocher chocolates on our shelf). 

And when I weighed myself yesterday, I was 4 pounds lighter than last week.  Amazing what a little tweak to the eating habits can do.
