10 weeks...10 pounds...

So, the date has finally arrived.  We are getting to crunch time.  There are 10 weeks left til our wedding...10 weeks!  holy crap, how did that happen?  Pretty soon (like um, next week) its going to be 2 months. 

While wedding plans are well underway....the only real thing left are some of the details (like what color am I going to write guest names on place cards and how am I going to indicate what type of meal they ordered), my weight loss has taken a stand still.  I have been hovering around 139/140 for the past two weeks, which is great since my workout routine has still sucked major! 

This is all going to change starting this week.  The problem...I have the busiest week EVER.  Tomorrow is my hair trial, Tuesday is bookclub, Thursday is my first dress fitting!!!  Next weekend in 4th of July which only means bad food, lots of beer, and more bad food....grrr....what is a girl to do??!!??!!

I am going to try my hardest to get up several days this week BEFORE work to try and get a quick 3-4 mile jog in.  That will help alot....let's say that gets me 4 workouts....technically I walked for about 45 minutes this morning...but I need a little more than that. 

I will let you know how this week goes:) 

YIKES 10 weeks and COUNTING!

The 17 day diet starts today!

Friday was a wonderful day!  I weighed myself and I finally broke the 140 mark.  I was down to 139.8 lbs.  I'm going to go ahead and give the heat some props on this.  This past week was HOT HOT HOT.  So hot that eating anything was almost out of the question.  Wednesday night I had cheese and apricot preserves for dinner.  And I drank so much water this week it was insane!

Well, yesterday I ate about a pound and a half of candied bacon made by Tricia Meier that was AMAZING.  OMG- have you had candied bacon before?  Number 1- it's awesome...cuz its bacon...#2 its coated in brown sugar.  you cant even imagine how good this is...and in celebration of Ms. Meier's birthday, some celebratory cocktails were had.

So....I am back up to 141...:( 


Today I am starting the 17 day diet....well actually it will probably be tomorrow....but I have bought all the food... so that's a good first step.  I am supposed to lose 10 pounds in 17 days....which would put me right at the mark i want to be at!


But on a good note- I went to the doctor on Friday.  I guess my blood pressure is GREAT..everyone kept commenting on it!
