I don't really understand it. Yesterday I weighed 117. I didn't post it because I thought it was a fluke, especially since I hadn't eaten dinner on Thursday night. And I knew that I'd be eating a real dinner last night when my friend came over. So, I was very careful all day.

I had coffee for breakfast (40). Yogurt and fruit for snack (90 + 80). 1/2 bowl of Minestrone (125) for lunch and a handful of craisins (60) and more fruit when I got home. Then we had pasta and veggies for dinner w/ fresh fruit for dessert. I didn't eat all of my pasta maybe 1/2 a serving. So when it came down to it I think I had about 700 calories. Which was way less than I expected to consume. It was weird. I expected my friend to be much more upset about what's going on with her boyfriend, and want wine and icecream and stuff (because that's what I'd want) but she was really calm and it was just like a normal night in with a girlfriend.

Anyway... I slept in this morning, got up about 9:15 or so, weighed myself at .... drumrol.... 115.25!

Almost exactly like the dream I had a few days ago.

I do not understand how I could have lost 5 pounds in 1 week. I haven't even done any major exercising (some crunches and leg lifts at night in front of the tv during commercials). I measured myself and I really haven't gone down more than a 1/2 inch in any one spot. And nothing off my hips so far. I think I might have my BF measure me when he gets back so I know it's accurate. It's hard keeping the tape measure up around my hips and back.

Anyway... I still don't want to jinx it by crossing off my 118 goal. If I can keep it around that for the next week, then yes. I will do that. I am just afraid that once I start eating bread, oatmeal and pasta on a regular basis that I will go right back to 121.

Thanks! I hope I can stay there. I'm really afraid it's just a fluke. But I'm gonna keep at it.
