Hi everyone, I've not had access for 4 days to FS, and I think I was having withdrawal symptoms! I got home this morning from San Diego, had a FANTASTIC time with family and friends. I am in full holiday mode now, can't wait to put up the tree and all that. I think I will forgo the baking this year though, even though it is something I really enjoy.
My daughter and I went wedding dress shopping, and she found a beautiful gown in a consignment store in San Diego. She looked so beautiful! But then of course, I started thinking, What is the mother of the bride going to wear? She's going to wear a size 8, that's what!
I'm not going to post my weight for a few days, or at least until tomorrow. I did pretty well, but drank a lot and slipped up a few times. Not sure of the damage yet. I just want this last 30 lbs gone...getting back strong today!

My daughter's wedding is July 13, so I've got time, but this plateau is kicking my butt a little bit. I'm ready to go back to what I was doing initially when I lost the majority of my weight. The Low Carb high fat worked for maintenance somewhat and I lost at first, but each day it creeped up a little more. I think the key now is to build muscle and get my basal metabolic rate up. It's never simple!

My daughter's wedding is July 20th! I have my dress, it's a size 14, but I'm wearing 14's now in my jeans, from 18-20's...I know that even if I can drop another 20 between now and then, that the dress will still work, since it's a stretchy material, and it's pretty snug right now lol...I'm on a plateau also, yo-yo'ing with 3-5 lbs...I just joined Curves last week, tho, so hopefully with that, and getting back on my low carb they way I should be - not eating rice and potatoes, lol, I should be able to get under the 200's...
Keep up the good work!

I'm also a size 12-14, but I really want to get to my goal before I buy this dress. K-I think you are on track with the Curves workout!

Glad you had fun and looking forward. So - maybe you should go dress shopping in June when you are AT goal! That would be so fun, wouldn't?

I am in a size 14 too but my jeans are a little snug. I am hoping to be in my skinny size 12 jeans by September and would take 10's but I know I looked good in those skinny 12's and everything was proportioned nicely.

If I wait until June to buy a dress I will be too stressed out! I have to know by April what I am wearing. So I'd better get busy! I wear some 12s now, so really it is just 2 sizes...and I'd probably be happy in a 10. My daughter's dress is a 10 and she looks AMAZING.

So nice that you got to gown shop with your daughter! Welcome back. You can get to your goal - just keep focused - like the rest of us - and we will get their together!
