You know you're doing something right...

When you go bathing suit shopping and you don't want to kill yourself. It's a good feeling. All my dieting and watching every single thing that I eat is definitely starting to pay off.

Brad and I headed out to the Tanger Outlet Malls this past Saturday in a effort to spend some time outside, but also pick up a couple of things that we needed. It was a beautiful day for a drive, we spend way more time outside than inside (even enjoyed the first Italian ices of the year!), and I managed to snag an awesome Juicy Couture tankini with matching board shorts--and I thought it looked pretty darn cute. Here's a picture--though the top is slightly different (it has a little tie thingy) and the suit is in lime green! The shorts are pink with green and white detailing...super, super cute. And it is an awesome feeling to not be totally self-conscious in your suit. Whoo-hoo!

Cravings...

***If you have "that time of the month" phobias, don't read the below blog***

Grrr. How the hell do you stay on WW when your body is massively craving salt? All I want to do right now is eat an entire bag of salt & vinegar potato chips. Yum. Or chocolate covered pretzels. Whoever thought of that is a bloody genius. The perfect combo of sweet and salty...oh god. I'm killing myself. Must...have...salt...now....
I think I need to get myself a salt-lick. You know, like gerbils and hamsters have? I can just lick my salt-lick whenever I have salt cravings and keep myself from (as Eve would put it) having a big ole' party with myself and eating an entire bag of chips.

I'm drinking lots of Yogi Moon Cycle tea, which should help the cravings. But still. Chips! Salt! Tomorrow I'll start fiending for chocolate, which I absolutely cannot eat unless I want to turn into a giant walking pimple in cute shoes. Eww.
