The scale is unchanging, but the numbers are still good!

So the scale is stubbornly set on 192, but I've lost some inches around my belly button and waist. Hoorah!

It's been a fun weekend. On Saturday I sub taught Power Sculpt. I'm always nervous to teach it because it involves doing the exercises along with the class. Taking the class always destroys me but somehow I'm ok when I teach. So that was fun, and then I got a back alley keratin treatment for my hair!

Ok, it wasn't back alley, but it was by a girl who used to own a salon who now does keratin treatments out of her condo. One of my Facebook friends posted a before and after recommending this girl, and so I reached out, because I've always wanted non-frizzy hair. I like the wave and the curl, but the frizz got to GO! But usually it just seems too expensive. This lady's got the right price for me. And, turns out, she goes to my yoga studio! Awesome! Anyways, I lurve my new hair.

Then I went on a birthday boat cruise down the Potomac, celebrating my friend Danielle's birthday. It was very nice, and I double fisted over-priced white wine and also had some beerth. I was aimin' to get a little drunk, is my point. And I did! Mission accomplished. It made it a bit easier to talk to a guy I nicknamed "Douchey Joe" (not to his face.) Douchey Joe was from Brooklyn and had emo hair and just seemed kind of complainy. He probably doesn't deserve the nickname, but it's too late! I already nicknamed him.

This morning I had a chance to practice good habits. We went to a great neo-soul food place for brunch, and instead of shrimp and grits, I got steak and eggs. AND the vegan gumbo, which was full of tasty veggies.

Then this afternoon I prepped more food, including lamb with ponzu mint sauce and a bunch of Chinese broccoli. I'm set for lunches this week!

This week will also be stressful, I think, but my plan for recovery doesn't involve drinking lots of wine - I'm planning a sleep a lot weekend. I'll go paddle boarding if the weather's nice, but otherwise Saturday's for sleepin'. And studying for a certification.

Cheers!
