Week 5: I Spy a Teeny-Weeny Weight Loss

Get out your magnifying glasses if you want to see this week’s weight loss, which took me down to 251.6 lbs. Although it *is* a downward trend, it’s a not-so-whopping 0.6 lb.

According to SensibleUnits.com, that’s the equivalent of:

• 36 one-euro coins, or
• 25 USB flash drives, or
• 5.9 golf balls, or
• 1.9 wireless computer mice

Hmmpf. I and my nearly 6 golf balls of major, major weight loss will work harder this week.

In the good news department, I was desperate for clean clothes this morning and grabbed some “too small” pants from the skinny-clothes side of my closet, resigned to an uncomfortable day of chafed thighs and a pinched waist. But what do you know … they fit. (Okay, size 22 isn’t exactly skinny. But it’s a noticeable difference from size 26, which is what I’ve been wearing. W00t!)
