Still doin' it

I am still totally eating raw here. Knowing that I'll only have to do it until this Saturday night (which is tomorrow!) and then I get a big delicious break before deciding how to proceed, has been helpful.
Yesterday I ate a pear and a cherry tomato for lunch. And some almonds and seeds as a snack. And after work I ran some errands and when I had dinner at 8pm it was a handful of cherries and about a cup of mixed cut-up melons (water- and honeydew). This morning it was half a grapefruit and a spoonful of almond butter.
Hilariously after four days I've lost not one pound. Not that I'm in this for weight-loss, but I thought that would be like a bonus. I know I haven't lost one pound because I went to Bed Bath and Beyond last night on one of my errands and I went (as I always do) to the section of slightly fucked-up stuff on hella-sale. I stepped on a scale that was 35% off*. It said I was 143lbs. Then I FREAKED OUT, remembered I was carrying my purse and another 2 bags from other errands and I put them down and re-weighed: 136lbs. That's what I usually am I think (I don't own a scale).
Anyway, I did manage to pick up a few fun items for my move, like a new bath mat and shower curtain. My shower in my current place is for hobbits so I had to cut about one third off of the bottom of the curtain that's there now, so that one won't work. I had to choose between the white cotton waffle weave curtain and the fun vinyl Boston metro system curtain. I went with the plain white because I'm an adult and my new bathroom is pretty black and white and that's the way I roll with the classiness.

So! To re-cap:
I'm still raw and I still want carbs and coffee so SO much.
No weight loss so there's still plenty of me to love.
New shower curtain and bath mat.
(Seriously, how do you stand the excitement over here???)

*The scale was on sale because it had been opened and returned. I'm sure it worked just fine...

You suck. I would be so happy to even be 143lbs. I have been exercising and eating sort of right, so something should be happening. Right? RIGHT?!?!? I am simply chalking it all up to muscle being denser than fat. Yeah....

One word: GAZPACHO.
