The Diet

I've lost 28 pounds since I've started my diet. It's getting so much harder to lose weight now. I realize how easy I had it at the beginning of the diet. It also makes me realize how much my body didn't want that extra weight, being that it melted off so easily. I want to weigh at most 138 pounds at my wedding, but I'll see how much weight I can lose beyond that. ALTHOUGH, what stresses me out is my wedding dress. I go in for my fitting on June 4th. So I get my dress to fit perfectly... let's say... June 15th, what if I lose MORE weight after that (many brides have promised me that weight will come off the last two weeks before the wedding whether I want them to or not), what if the dress is too big? The things that stress me out these days! As far as my diet goes... I've been drinking lots (and LOTS) of water. I'm trying to eat dinner earlier in the evening now. Typically Mark and I eat dinner around 8:30/9pm because of my work schedule. It's hard to not eat at night. I've been at the gym CONSTANTLY. I only eat fruit for snacks. The weight is slooooowly coming off. Weekends are still really hard for me. This weekend I have the Bridges-Brews 8K to run. I'll be doing it with Lindsay, Mark, and some other friends. It's fun being a part of active things again.

A Tea Party!

For me!!!! For my bridal shower I'm having a Tea Party. My older sister made some very lovely invitations for the event. I just got mine today! Here they are:

The back side says "Children are welcome. Hats and gloves are optional!"

I got a fascinator for the event. One like Kate Middleton wears. I plan on lifting my pinky finger while drinking tea. It's going to be so proper! I'm excited for it.

Nothing to Report

My word, I lead quite a boring life. So I apologize for the lack of posting, but I have NOTHING going on. Mark gave up television for lent, so I've been doing more jig-saw puzzles recently. I've also created the invites for the wedding (they aren't that great, but they'll get the job done). I also have spent some more time at the gym. Speaking of the gym, tomorrow marks the day where I'm a 100 days away from being married. My older sister and some other nameless brides from the web devoted 100 hours of gym time for the last 100 days. I've been thinking about doing something similar. I don't know if I'd be motivated enough to spend that much time in the gym... OK~ I've made a decision while typing that last sentence there. I will see how close to 100 hours of gym time I can do in the last 100 days. And I'll gift myself things for certain levels. Example: 75-100 hours at the gym = Buying an hour massage for the honeymoon 50-74 hours at the gym = A new pair of shoes etc, etc. The lower the hours get, the lesser of a prize I'll give myself. Maybe if I do anything under 50 hours, I'll get a punishment. Ouch! Yes, yes. This is working for me. While I do everything but watch TV tonight, I'll figure out my prizes.
