Maintaining Myself Monday

Yes, I have been steady at 130 lbs for the last few weeks.  Now the hard part is to keep it off!  I plan to still track my daily WW points to stay on course!  
I also had to go buy new jeans this week, hoping that a size 8 would fit nicely.  The award for vanity sizing goes to....(drumroll)....Mark's Work Wearhouse where I bought size 4 and size 6 jeans!  The number is nice, but I don't think it really reflects reality.  For those of you outside Canada, Mark's Work Wearhouse is a large chain that sells casual clothing besides things like steel-toed boots and leather gloves.
As for exercise, I raked the yard this weekend!  The snow is finally gone in Northern BC and spring is here.  I took a picture of the weeny flowers I found on the lawn....
 Happy Spring!

I also enjoy Mark's 4s and 6s after losing weight. But you're right about the sizing - when I was a teenager in the 60's and was under 100 lb. I was still a 5 or 7; that's how much they've changed the sizing. But what the hay - I say enjoy those numbers - you've worked hard for it!!!
