You Can't Stop Progress..or looking back

Why am I continuing to miss Oerlikon?! Today's flash back is remembering the time I decided I was sick of Migrol gas station food and wanted to try to find "anything." I ended up getting wicked lost and found a Thai restaurant. The menu was entirely in Thai and in German. Given my heritage, I should have had no problem with that but I was so tired and hungry and damp. Oerlikon's climate it that of sitting in the bottom of a very active spitoon. I moved on, not wanting to deal with the long line or the translation. I found a Coop supermarket and went in and found, yet again, nothing. Nothing that didn't require advanced cooking anyway. I remember buying chocolate and potato chips.

And as far as progress is concerned, I lost my tenth pound this week. I had challenged myself to lose 10 lbs by the end of October. I beat that by a month so now I want to lose another 10. But it paid off. Today I ran into a co-worker I haven't seen in ages and he looked at me surprised and said, "Look at YOU!" That was awesome.
