It's Been A While!!

Sorry, I kind of dropped off the face of the Earth. I am in my last semester to get a Liberal Arts degree, and for the first time in my life I am not doing good in a class. And I can't help it!! It's extremely frustrating and I've been spending a lot of time on it. Also, we're coming up on our busy season at work so they like to implement new "fun" stuff around this time.
I have 3 finals this Friday, I leave for Jamaica on Saturday--return Wednesday, and my last final is that Friday. Almost done! Just in time for the rush season at work. But with school all done with, I'll have more time for posting!

I had gained 3-4lbs about 2 weeks ago, I was binging! I could not eat junk food quick enough, I relate it to stress. But last week I got back in the saddle, I've been doing dailyplate lately to make sure I stay where I need to be. I am aiming at less than 1,500 calories a day and I have managed 1,300 for this week.. and I'm back to 221lb, so I lost all the weight I gained a couple weeks ago (whew). Now if I could just get into the TEENS.

I had a NSV yesterday, I went to Cato's to buy some Jamaica clothes.. if any of you shop there, you know one side is "Plus Size" and the other side is "Normal"(although I don't think it's called that). I officially do not fit in the "Plus Size". I found some cute shirts in 14/16.. and I saw they also had them in XL on the "Normal" side.. I took one of both, hit the dressing room.. plus size 14/16 was far too big.. XL fits JUST right, one inch smaller and it wouldn't fit though. I bought a fitted skirt and top, neither of which had an ounce of stretch to them.. Russell approved, he likes how it flatters my..curves. I think I look better in it, when I look in a mirror but here ya go:
