Pre-Vacation post

I'm thinking of goals.  Specifically my weight goal.  I chose a goal based on outdated BMI info, so I started looking into other ways of figuring out when I'll be 'done.'  By the waist-to-hips ratio, I'm fine.  Other measures do seem to be more accurate in that they take into account the body type.  I'm going to go ahead and say that I have an 'athletic' build - mostly because 'quarter horse' isn't recognized yet.  (Hehe, thanks for that one, Mom.)  Some of my friends and family have expressed concern that I may take things too far (what? who? ME?) so I wanted to share a pic to let you all know that I'm not at all looking emaciated or like a cadaver (Dad was worried about that one).  I still have my hips and butt, the hips have just shrunk by a foot (A FOOT - 12 inches GONE), and my waist is less than 1/2 my height, which is apparently also a thing.  Then again, I've usually had a smaller waist - I'm a big ol' pear as my friend T said once - most of my weight is in my hips, thighs and butt.

So when will I feel like I'm 'ready' to move from ADF to OMAD (maintenance).  I'm not sure.  There's a part of me that feels like after the next 10 lbs I can re-evaluate and decide if I want to go for the last 10 to my original goal.  That being said, I could just stop after I lose 100 lbs - it's a nice, round number.  Then again, who is to say that I can't stop at 95 and just round up?  See the dilemma?  I get so distracted by the numbers that I'm not sure when to say 'when.'  This may be TMI, but perhaps I could stop once certain deposits are gone.  I'm the only one who sees those, so I'd be the only one who knew when I was done.  

Anyway, those are just some thoughts.  Feel free to weigh in down in the comments section (see what I did there?).  In the meantime, it's officially vacation and my beer loves me.

So Sunday J and I went in to Seoul and got haircuts, then went to Vatos and then went shopping.  I got a rather nice shirt. 

Reminds me of Sandy at the end of Grease.  So we also got some chocolate after Vatos and before we came home.

 Post-haircut beer :)  I was waiting for J to get done and so Jay gave me a beer.

 Then we went to a chocolate cafe and I had an iced mexican hot chocolate.  It was really nice. 

 J was happy with her chamomile tea. 

We also got a waffle.  It was SO GOOD!

So after this we came home, which was nice.  I am almost done with my book The Dante Club - it's really good!  I'll have another book to take down to Busan.  The train trip is about 5 hours, so I'm thinking of taking 2 books just to be sure I'll have enough.  I don't want to bring my kindle because I don't want to worry about charging it.  Then my friend D will meet me at the train station and then the shenanigans can begin!!

I hope all of you are doing OK and sending lots of love to all.  :* MUAH!
