I overheard a student refer to me as, "that skinny blond English teacher." I'm the only blond in the department, so it HAD to be me!

1. I did not cheat all weekend, despite numerous opportunities.
2. I spent all day today preparing for a presentation I had to give as part of a job interview. I was extremely nervous and off-key all day, but I did not binge or otherwise allow my emotions to control my eating. (p.s. the presentation went swimmingly! )

ok I spoke too soon before. I am currently in a pair of pants that was too small when I bought them (darned mail orer and inconsitent sizing!)

Go me!

I've also sorted out short term goal pants out of my wardrobe and looooooooooong term goal pants (which I love and used to wear to death).

A friend at MOPS told me today that my pants looked baggy! I could have kissed her! I told her that I was getting a little down b/c I was gaining and losing the same 2 pounds over the last 3 weeks. She assured me that I was definitely losing weight!

I'm 9 weeks pregnant, haven't gained a pound yet and have been eating mostly whole foods!

PS - I actually really don't care about the weight gain part, the babies health is the most important thing, but I'm glad I've been able to feed it well without getting sick!
