The Good and the Bad: Weight Loss Edition

Good things about losing weight:

• My collarbones are sexy as fuck.
• My feet hurt way less in heels.
• When I cross my legs all lady-like, they stay that way.
• When squeezing between tables at a restaurant I worry less about knocking things over.
• My cheekbones. 
• My ass.
• Contorting my body into new yoga poses.
• Climbing a staircase and not feeling out of breath.
• Laying in bed and feeling small.
• Looking in the mirror and loving what I see...or at least, not completely hating it.

Bad things about losing weight:

• I'm turning into a terrible narcissist and can't stop taking pictures of myself.
• None of my clothes fit and I'm too poor to buy all the pretty new stuff I want.
• Mr. Tree has less cushion for the pushin'...with his paws, of my belly.
• I feel guilty when I indulge even if it's planned.
• I feel strangely more vulnerable in public, like I'm more visible even though there's less of me.
• The more I lose, the more I want to lose.
