Operation Wedding Dress- Day 2

Yay for day 2!!

This means that I didn't work out so hard yesterday that I could still move today! It's much easier to work out a second day when one is able to move!!

I was a little sore in all the right places this morning. I could still walk down the stairs normally. This allowed me to power walk to the gym, where I rode the bike, lifted some weights, and then power walked back home.

I forgot how good sweating feels. I'm going to need to sweat a ton in order to look amazing on the beach in my dress. The goal is sans spanx.

Stay tuned for more adventures in operation-wedding-dress land. There's going to be a lot more to come with ONLY 16 WEEKS UNTIL WE LEAVE FOR TROPICAL PARADISE, BIKINI WEARING, WEDDING DRESS FITTING, LOOONG WALKS ON THE BEACH AND PLAYING IN THE WAVES WEDDING VACATION TIME!

Next Friday I'll have my first weight sharing post!

Happy Friday!!

less than four months!

Means that it's really time to get serious.

My original plan was to go running, but since my jaw has been injured that is just not possible. My bike was stolen, so that's a no go for cardio.... and I am not going to start rollerblading BEFORE the wedding- lol, can you imagine? hahahaha!!

Today I went to the gym. And got a free week pass to try out the gym. Which I did! It was great, and nice to see that there are still some muscles under that extra layer!! I haven't purchased a scale yet, so I weighed myself there....

and yes- I will share it with you.

It's the heaviest I've ever been- but I was close to this weight once before, and managed to lose it so I know that I can do it again.

153 pounds

yikes.

I'd like to lose 20 by the wedding. It's not totally unreasonable, and I know that muscle weighs more than fat, so I'm not going to become obsessed by the numbers. Although it is nice to have some sort of goal to work towards!!

Here's the rest of the dirty details, taken with our not very bendy tape measure.

bust 36 inches
waist 31 inches
hips 42 inches

Let's see how far I can go!!

Bride to be.

Confession #1

I'm currently eating herbed goats cheese, thickly spread on crackers, which is delicious. I plan on following it with a cold pint of beer.
