Is it possible I've gotten the hang of this?

So I mentioned I want to lose 100 pounds.  And I've had this plan for several years.  I've had the real hardcore plan for several months.  I've been putting this plan into action for several days.

So no, I don't believe I've actually gotten the hang of losing weight just yet.  But changes are definitely afoot.

For example, Old Jess would come home from her early morning job and crawl back into bed for 45 minutes until she absolutely had to get up and go to real job.  New Jess?  Gets home and laces up the running shoes and runs ginormous wicked hills for 30 minutes.  Old Jess stopped at Taco Shack for 2 Shack Tacos and a Dr Pepper 4 out of 5 mornings every week (the 5th usually belonged to Einstein Bros.) This week?  A smoothie whipped up in my own kitchen after running said ginormous wicked hills.  Old Jess liked to "lounge" and "relax" in the evenings after work.  New Jess goes out for more running and cooks dinner every evening.

I am proud of my still-forming habits.  I feel good this week, minus the aching muscles part.  I'm hoping to see a smaller number on the scale on Sunday.  Which means that Mandy's last minute appearance in Austin this weekend cannot derail me.  And neither can Hula Hut margaritas.
