You know you're losing weight when...

I got my third fill today of 1 cc, putting me up to 4 ccs in my band (which now my doctor thinks it's a 10 cc band). I asked my doctor about this lump I've been feeling on my left side under my ribs, I said I didn't know where my band actually was or if it moved or something. He felt the lump, looked at me very seriously, and said "That's a rib" and grinned. I haven't felt a rib through my skin in so long, I didn't even know what it was! So that's good news.

I had a protein shake for lunch after my fill and I wasn't too hungry until I got home. I did get to the gym again, and did my "normal" routine for the time being--15 mins on the bike, 5 mins on the elliptical. I felt like I was working different muscles today. Yesterday, my thighs were sore, today it was behind my knees and my calves a bit. My biggest soreness right now when I work out is my feet. I used my older shoes yesterday and today and it helped, I have to break in the new shoes before I can work out in them.

I noticed today that when I get home after working out, I don't complain about work as much as I usually do. It's nice not to feel so grumpy.

I got on the scale again tonight since I didn't eat much today (less food in my body) and went to the bathroom first, back down to 411.6. I'm still frustrated though because that's still a gain from last week and I really don't know how. Oh well. My mini-goal right now is to get under 400 by my birthday, which is April 9. At this rate I don't feel like I'll make it, but I gotta keep trying.
