Losing Weight Check-in #6

I have changed a few habits, but the weight is coming off slowly. I guess I put it on slowly, since I didn't even notice it, so it shouldn't be a surprise that it's taking some time to come off. My eating was all over the map this week. Lots of catering, so a good bit of salty food, but I also skipped meals (which I never do!) There was also a birthday party and cake so I aim to start off with a clean slate in the coming week. My free gym membership at David Barton expired this past weekend and I will start my discounted month at NY Sports Club either today or tomorrow. Hopefully I will find classes I like and time to go most days.

Good news is that the pants fit better and I feel more comfortable in my clothes. I just hope that doesn't let me slide and abandon my mission.
