Winning Wednesday
Number Four!

So I did my goal everyday as promised lol. I suppose I am feeling better about myself though. I still have been working out! Not so much at the gym but I walk 4 miles with my friend Brooke in her hilly neighborhood. It goes by fast because we talk to each other the whole way. I've not been eating as much sugar either. I'm really proud of myself keeping my past weeks goals in motion! I'm hoping to see the 180's VERY soon.

Friday will be my official last day at the finance center as an employee. I will be permanently here at the golf course. Today though at the golf course, I had trouble with one of the lady's who works here. She is just so dramatic about everything and a redneck with a short temper. People like that I'd like to knock upside the head. The only thing I asked was to be able to work morning hours so I can get back in school at nights (I shouldn't have even ASKED her just told her because she isn't my boss). She completely over reacted and raised her voice at me. It made me sick to my stomach...literally... I don't take arguments well at all. But I wasn't a complete push over. I got my boss and showed me a schedule I made up that would work out perfectly. I kept my cool with her and never raised my voice once. My boss took my side and I am getting the hours I want. The real reason I want the hours is so I can spend the evening with my boyfriend...not really so much about school (WHICH I will be getting back in, but not till the fall).

My goal for this week is not to eat any potato chips!!! Potato chips are my weakness....I'm such a junk-food junkie! Wish my luck everyone

Steady Sunday on a Monday
(didn't have any free time to do this yesterday lol)

So the wedding was this weekend! It went great, everything went smoothly and it was a perfect wedding. Friday morning was the bridal luncheon. Went to a fancy little hole in the wall restaurant in this small town where the only other things in the town is a gas station and a post office. They had SUCH delicious food. Needless to say I ate a lot this weekend. But I haven't gained anything or lost anything either.

At that little fancy restaurant I had baked potato soup and a small salad. It was DELISH!!!! Then they offered me dessert and I devoured a slice of white chocolate pecan pie. I don't even want to THINK about how many calories where in that slice, but it was DELISH!!! It made my tongue SO happy! After the luncheon I went and picked up my boyfriend and then went and bought my shoes for the wedding (yes I am SUCH a procrastinator). Then we went to the wedding rehearsal.

After the wedding rehearsal we went to the rehearsal dinner. I had chicken breast, sweet potato, and green beans. They brought out some chocolate pie dessert but after eating the white chocolate pecan pie that dessert couldn't even COMPARE to the deliciousness of the first one so I didn't even bother eating it. Just tasted one bite.

Saturday the day of the wedding made me realize what I really have when I have Todd as a boyfriend. I had to do the bride and all 7 bridesmaid's hair and it took over 5 hours and he just sat there in the room with me and waited for me to be done. I thought it was so sweet. If someone did that to me I'd probably be kinda ticked off. But not him he was so patient! And everyone looked beautiful. Todd is pretty bashful though. He wouldn't dance at the wedding only slow dance. I LOVE DANCING! So I left him and danced with the bride a few songs fast songs and he just sat and watched me. lol. It's okay that he is shy and bashful, I think its cute...and I think eventually I'll pull it out of him to just let loose. Might take a few extra drinks. At the wedding they had beer and wine, I only drank a sip of wine with the toast, I hate beer and I hate wine I only drink the really high calorie and over priced girly fruity liquor drinks.

I caught the bouquet when the bride threw it. This old granny lady almost tackled me down for it though. Lol. It was a really good night. After we left the wedding around 10 me, my mom, my stepdad, and Todd went and had a margarita. Sunday I worked all day (a 12 hour shift) and Todd stayed with me the whole day, then I took him home and spent the night with him there. I didn't go to work this morning (I really don't have to work there anyway anymore since I quit but I just am doing them a favor). I will go to me second job in an hour UGH. Really dont want to, I need a lazy day one of these days! I've been so busy!!!

But anyhoo, here are some pictures from the wedding as I promised :)

Have a great day everyone!

WINNING WEDNESDAY
NUMBER THREE

Hey everyone! Happy Wednesday. Dropping back down to my lowest, I feel I have made great progress this week. I have strictly stuck to my last goal of picking it up on exercise! I went to the gym 4 nights this week and went walking with my friend Brooke twice. I am going to go to the gym tonight and walk with her tomorrow. This is definitely a goal I will be sticking with. My inner thighs are so terrible sore from the machine that you squeeze your legs together on...but I love the soreness. Makes me feel like I am getting hotter!

Saturday is my best friends wedding. I tried on my bridesmaid dress again this morning WITHOUT a spank and IT FITS!!! I got it zipped up all the way! THANK YA JESUS! I was soooo worried wondering how I was going to let it out some lol. But it fits!!! WHAT A RELIEF!

My goal this week is real simple. I get told I am beautiful all the time but I hardly ever believe it or think it about myself. I guess you could say I have low self esteem. So my goal for this week is to look in the mirror everyday and tell myself I am beautiful.

Have a great day everyone!!!

ALSO: Here is a picture I just stumbled onto of me 140 pounds heavier! It really put things into perspective of how far I have come. Seeing myself every day in the mirror I don't really notice how drastic the changes have been!
