I'm not losing weight...

Sunday's Weigh-In: 245.2 lbs
Goal Weight: 175.0
Pounds to Lose: 70.2

I'm not losing weight as quickly as I would like. With last week, only losing 1.8 lbs and a couple of weeks ago I gaining .2, I'm a little disappointed with my progress. I wanted to be able to wear some of my old jeans by now but at this rate I won't be able to fit into them for another month. :-(

I don't know if you remember me posting this a while back that I refuse to buy clothes when I'm fat because it means I've accepted my weight. Well, I have lose 38.4 lbs, according to this morning's unofficial weigh-in, and I'm tired of wearing the same pair of jeans and two shirts. I refuse to spend money on clothes I don't plan to wear no more than 3 months, so I'm going to Goodwill. So, when the clothes become too big, I'll just donate them back. Good plan, I think. While I do reach my goal weight, it's on. Here are a few items I want to buy.

Banana Republic - Relaxed Dawson Fit Chinos
Banana Republic - Merino Wool Buttoned Shawl-Collar Pullover
Banana Republic - Textured Button-Neck Pullover
English Laundry - Trim Fit Dress Shirt
English Laundry - Trim Fit Dress Shirt
English Laundry - Trim Fit Dress Shirt
English Laundry - Trim Fit Dress Shirt

By the way, I'm 238.4 lbs. Ok, I'm not weighing myself anymore till Sunday. Promise. <fingers crossed>

I received an email from dailymile this morning. I didn't realize they sent a weekly report. I don't recall getting one last week.
