So I haven't been able to workout like I've wanted to...3-hour sessions a week...yet at least. The wedding is down to the wire, I've got 36 days left till dum...dum...da...dummmmm. So I'm freaking out with everything left to do (sorry Loverboy, you are the best, and I'm sorry you get the grunt of my wrath), haven't gotten my skirt yet (should be coming in the mail this week...hope hope...), Loverboy's suit got messed up (they gave him someone elses that is a totally different style), the rings h… Continue

Okay, so we're getting down to the wire with the wedding. I've got a month and a half till we walk down the aisle (or across the dance floor since we're doing the ceremony and reception at a Viking lodge). So with that, I'm stressed at what needs to be done, favors and centerpieces need to be completed, I need to find out a menu of food to bring in (and make a menu of stuff we're going to make like salad and desserts)...I haven't even gotten 1/2 the response cards back, but looks like it's going… Continue

So it's been a stressful couple of weeks, there were 2 weeks there I didn't lose or gain (thank goodness), Loverboy's Grandpa passed away and his Grandma ended up in the hospital with a hiatal hernia, my Grandma ended up having a stroke, I got all the wedding invitations out, I'm super busy at work even though we're supposed to be in a slow time right now (and they REALLY frown on overtime, so I'm cutting out early the next 3 days), got my tax refund but that went to car insurance (damn the man… Continue

So weighted in yesterday...standstill. At least I didn't gain.

Could it have been from eating out at a Polish buffet on Wednesday night with Loverboy and his Dad as a celebratory "We've got the invitation order forms for the wedding complete"? I tried to eat healthy there, and only one meat pierogi that was swimming in butter (actually tasted kinda gross). Stuck with a huge salad with cottage cheese, a little bit of roast beef, and an inch sized cheesecake bite.

Could it have been from the gir… Continue

Yup, I'm thrilled! According to the scale, I'm down 3.2 pounds this week...whoo-hoo!!! I've been watching Biggest Loser (reruns), and if that doesn't give anyone motivation, I don't know what will. Seeing a 350+ person running on a treadmill at 6.0 doesn't give you the chance to give an excuse not to do it yourself...even when money isn't involved (though it would be SO nice...lol).

So I was off last week Thursday and Friday, and ended up going OVER my daily points, and basically wiping out my… Continue
