Day 20 - Down .8 and 1.6

Jami: Down .8
Justin: Down 1.6

Yay! Love this diet! Pants that I couldn't zip two weeks ago are so baggy they look bad. Shopping trip! And Justin is in the 190's!!! Goodbye 200's!

Confessions: Justin eats a small piece of bread and/or slice of cheese almost daily. And I have small daily cheats too. Like one M&M or a pinch of bread. Or flavored coffee instead of black. So really, it kills the mind a lot the more you do it, but super small amounts don't seem to be affecting our weight loss. Hindsight may make us think differently though...

I was telling Cat this morning that my injections started hurting. But for a VERY good reason: I no longer have pockets of fat to inject into!! The only spots left are in my butt and I am still hitting muscle. Don't let this scare you, it's a GREAT problem to have. And really, it isn't bad enough to make me even consider stopping.

Job update: I GOT IT!!! They loved me. He didn't even check my references. I will be starting March 8th. The position is so exciting! It will be me and another guy being and building the finance department. All the processes are already in place, it's just a pile of work that needs to be done. And related to my degrees, finally. :) I was mostly attracted to this job because of the people. Until you've worked in Corporate America for a while, you have no idea how important it is to respect and admire your coworkers. The work will always be there, but if you can't smile at your coworkers you are in trouble. Literally, if Andy were a decent person I wouldn't want to leave so bad. My new boss, Wayne, has three main qualities: Passion, compassion, and is demanding. He wants his people to work hard and he will go above and beyond for them in return. That's exactly what I need! Someone to have expectations and want to help me accomplish them. The drive will be so worth it! It's against traffic and my drive to DC for the new Flatiron's office would have been just as far without free parking...

Anyway, off to do the right thing (creating manuals of my work at Flatirons).

Jami: 158.8; Total Weight Lost: 14.0
Justin: 199.6: Total Weight Lost: 15.2
