Weight Loss Wednesdays

HA ha...

How did I completely forget to do this? I think it was because I had Monday off, so I thought that it was Tuesday all day yesterday!

I weighed in and I lost (drum roll please....) .4 pounds! Yes that is a decimal point in front of the 4.

So I am headed in the right direction, but it will take me 4 years to reach goal at this rate!
I am rededicating to tracking this week.

I will keep you updated! I also am such a slug. I need to take myself to the gym, but my car seems to have a hard time finding it! LOL!

Loves!

Trapeze School!



I have always wated to go to Circus School and I just decided that when I hit my weight loss goal, I am going to sign up! I defiantely want to be a bit thinner before I go hurling myself through the air!


When I told Bean my plan, he was really excited for the goal and told me that his contribution would be to PAY for it! YAY!


I am really excited about this. I always need to work toward a goal and this is the perfect motivation! And can you imagine all the new costume possibilities? Like this:





I am obsessed with DSquared's Circus line for Brittney. So creative! I may have to get extensions as well! :)


I mean...I may have to run away with the circus if I LOVE IT!


Speaking of loving it, maybe hitting the gym to strengthen my arms wouldn't be a bad idea!

I seriously think that I want to have my birthday party here. (hint, hint!)

Weight Loss Wednesdays

Hi all!

I really love when blogs have a theme for everyday of the week.  I feel that it helps the reader track the blogger's vision as well as gives the blogger a rubric to follow...

I have been brainstorming (and seriously trying not to plagiarize jenloveskev!) and have come up with a few ideas, but the only one that has really STUCK is "weight loss wednesdays".  I go to WW every week to help teach me how to eat healthier...

Honestly I haven't really been trying as much as I should.  I love the meetings.  It feels like a big hug as everyone in the room is there for the same reason.  I don't feel fat by any means, but as the pic states above it is just easier to be the fashion diva I want to be sans a few LBS.

So I will be posting every Wednesday my weekly weigh in (I haven't decided whether I will post my actual weigh or just the amount lost/gained).  This is very scary because I want to make progress and if I don't I will feel embarrassed and like I let myself (and my cheerleaders) down.  So here goes.  

Wish me determination.  I will need it!

Try a bit harder LUCKY MAG!

Excuse the horrible pic (it was taken at 11:35 p.m while Bean was sleeping) but COME ON LUCKY!  Can't you do better than this on an editorial page labeled DATE NIGHT?!?

 That dress has a bubble hem.  Yup.  A bubble hem.  The hem that you still see if you HAVE to go out downtown when the 21ers file into a club. 

It is touted here as being a "victorian look".  Uh...

How is this fashion forward?

The only snow I've seen...


This is my name twin.  Buy clothes from her hubby's line.  They are swizzy!

I am reinventing, figuring out my new camera,  getting Bean settled in his AMAZING new home and teaching a bunch of 6 year olds how to read.  I am exhausted.

What have you been up to?

Nikon D3000! Thanks Bestie!

Horrible picture? Yes. Do I care? NO! Because from now on (or until I seriously learn how to use this amazing camera) my pictures will be DOPE!


Yes, in that blurry photo above is my NEW CAMERA!


It is my very first digital SLR camera all thanks to my BESTIE ESTIE!


She is the kind of friend that would fly across the world if you called and said that you needed her. She is the kind of friend that would punch someone who hurt you (just because they need to be in pain as well!). She is the kind of friend that supports your dreams (even if she doesn't understand them!). I am so very lucky to have her on my side!
Stay tuned. As well as the camera, I also got a remote AND a tripod (thanks sister!)

Good things are to come!

Happy Monday!
