OMG... Yay!

So I just got asked by my long time and very close friend, Rosie, to be her Maid of Honor! I've been asked to be a MOH two different times already and then both weddings got put off and when they finally did happen either one was a courthouse thing and the other was out of state and they just picked another friend who lived closer. Rosie lives in OK right now but she's going to be back in Texas soon and I can't wait. I wish I had a job already, guess I'm just gonna have to bust my ass just that much harder to find one because I don't wanna let her down. I need to be able to buy my own dress and throw her a bachelorette party. I'm so excited to get to do one of those! haha. The wedding is on 11.11.11 which is pretty kickass. lol. This means I have approximately 9 and a half months to get ready for all this. Hopefully if I stick to my diet and exercising and keep going strong over the next few months then I will be down a few dress sizes before the big day. I'd hate to be a giant whale standing next to her taking any kind of attention away from her on that special day.

Gosh... I'm sooo excited. I think this just gives me that much more motivation to drop some lbs!

Daily Affirmations

So I was reading somewhere in another weightloss blog about how it really helps them out to give themself a daily affirmation. Just writing one good thing about yourself everyday doesn't sound like much at first. But thinking about it... its actually kinda hard to do, especially for someone like me. I think it will be helpful though and hopefully improve my confidence each day as well.

So today I am happy because I have friends that love and support me in everything I do. I must be doing something right to have friends like that. <3

I'm up way too late...

but figured I better post real quick before I head off to bed...

I went walking with Jett today because the weather was soo beautiful outside. Apparently a cold front is about to hit here and its going to get really bad very soon. After that all passes though I hope to do a lot more walking. I noticed I was a lot more energized this time than I was the last time I went walking. I was less out of breath when climbing hills and seemed to keep a faster and more steady pace so I'm pleased with myself.

I decided just for the sake of setting a goal date that I hope to have reached my goal by Jett's 3rd birthday. Maybe that's unrealistic, but maybe its not. I will have a better feel for it when the day grows closer though. Thats about 2 weeks and 6 months away from now. I marked the days on my calendar so I would know how many days left, sorta like they did on that I Used to be Fat show. So as of Monday I will have 195 days left to reach my goal. Here's hoping that's attainable!
