reconciled


It happened this morning.
My drivers license weight and my actual weight have finally reconciled.

rec·on·cile

to bring into agreement or harmony; make compatible or consistent


And lest you feel a twinge of jealousy, don't.

I ate celery for this.
I exercised my butt off for this.
I drank lots and lots and lots and of water for this.
I stopped eating Ben and Jerry's New York Super Fudge Chunk for this.

Just be happy for me.

I am.


p.s. I haven't weighed 138 pounds since 10th grade (maybe 9th). Those are my feet though (and I desperately need a pedi). I just weighed myself on the carpet. Apparently, it's kind of like weighing yourself on the moon. I'm not sure why I didn't try this earlier.

Felicitaciones Cathy! Hard work pays off!

Completely awesome. I am very, very happy for you!! In fact, you may have inspired me. When I look in the mirror, I can see "skinny Tiffany" just waiting to come out...

C.K., his birthday is on Mother's Day this year. I won't know for sure if I've won until then. I'm sure I will win though.

colds1, don't be jealous. I'm sure there's celery at your grocery store too.

Bronco P3t3, thank you very much!

Christina, thanks! Everything I learned about rocking I learned from you.

Zipdinger, gee thanks. I feel all warm and fuzzy knowing I've inspired you.

You are now at my pre-pregnancy weight! Congratulations! And i sure wish you would quit trying to fatten up the rest of us with your yummy baked goods.

Ella said...

Congrats! I know you've been working hard! And to remember that I told you I didn't think you could stand to lose more than 5 pounds! You just keep getting skinnier and skinnier! I thought I would try the fun carpet experiment. I weighed 88 pounds. That was fun.

Cathy said...

Crap, Ella. I'm 50 carpet pounds heavier than you. That's embarrassing.
