166 progress photo! Thanks Pasta Queen

I weighed in at 166 yesterday because I couldn’t contain myself from peaking at the scale. Also, I wanted the precise weight at the time the picture was taken. Obviously it didn’t occur to me that I wasn’t showered or hadn’t even combed my hair. Notice the mailing address labels on my left hand? My daughter started plastering me with stickers and threw a tantrum when I tried to remove them. Between that and the booger smears across my chest I feel really fresh.

This picture didn’t come out great, not because of poor hygiene, but because I have some weird shadows that I couldn’t isolate to remove (without a lot of work). The shadow is too close to my skin color in some places and I didn’t want to take the time to do it right.

I was so excited to use Pasta Queen's technique that I didn’t pick a more flattering outfit or anything. I might as well have wrapped myself in rubber bands to look like a stuffed sausage. Oh well, this is a one time deal to commemorate a new beginning for me. Rotating progress will remain exclusively Pasta Queen’s signature. She’s my hero.

I will be posting my regular progress photos more often, once again, because there will be progress! I’ll also get some stats up from my calorie counting reports, etc. Where the heck do these weekends go? I get one tenth of what I think I’ll do actually done.

Thanks again P.Q., you’re the coolest.
