Aigh. My fiance's sister just got all of her wedding photos back. I look like a bus. A bright green bus. Okay, I really do think the bride's maid's dress looked just terrible on me and added lbs., so some of how bad it looked is that, but I just look fat, fat, fat. I look like a fat lumbering giant. Why, why am I 3 in. taller than all the other bride's maids and they're in heels? Makes me look even bigger. I'm tempted to try on the dress again and see how it fits now. This just motivates me to keep losing so I'm happy with how I look at our wedding next June. I don't want to look back on my own wedding pictures and hate the way I look. Of course, I won't be picking a bight green strapless dress cut for someone who weighs 2 lbs. :P


And okay, I know it's my fiance's family, so they're closer to their own daughter, but my fiance's sister and I have lost similar amounts of weight and they keep saying how great she looks and, aside from his grandmother once, haven't commented at all on mine. I also think it's bad they're encouraging her-- she's 'sick' and hasn't been eating and that's why she's lost wait while I'm doing it sensibly. :/ Of course, she told me tonight her appetite has returned and her weight loss has stalled. Unfortunately for her, I foresee her gaining it all back, unless she gets on a decent diet and exercise regime. :(

Oh well, at least I'm going to my mother's for Thanksgiving.. she'll be full of compliments. Okay, I sound like I need other people to validate me, but I don't really, just is nice sometimes when those close to you notice. My fiance's sister and I were talking tonight about our weight loss and I forgot how it came up, but she said she couldn't tell at all that I've lost weight (although she did encourage/congratulate me on the weight loss). I can tell and so can my fiance and brother.. hurt my feelings that she hadn't noticed, because it is noticeable. Just comes from being wrapped in yourself I guess; their father's the same. Okay, lol.. this is getting off weight-topic. Perhaps to go write in my livejournal now. ;)

Weighing in cause it's Monday-- no loss.

I bought myself a dress that doesn't fit. Anyone else do this? I have been making myself not look at baby stuff anymore, or at least not buy anything, esp. since we're going to try in less than a year so buying cute outfits no longer feeds the need I used to have. Anyway, so now I'm focusing on clothes for myself! I bought a dress the other day that is not anywhere near my size! It's really cute and I hope to be able to fit into it by next Spring. I'm worried I might be over-shooting size-wise though. I bought a size 12 and it just looks so small! That was the only size they had though but I went back the other day and saw the same dress again, but a size 16, and thought about returning it, but size 16 looked so big! Also, I guess I'm not going to be totally happy at a size 16 and I kinda want it to be my 'triumph dress'. I know I was about a 14/16 at 200 lbs. I wear about a 22/24/(~26) right now, but lately have been wearing some of my old size 18s! My too-tight jeans aren't quite fitting anymore. And I wore a super sexy top today that I've never ever worn-- I've had it over a year and bought it because I just loved the fabric and look, but it was too small for me. Aside from my jeans and pants, I plan on altering all my (expensive!) clothing, mostly tops, to fit. I hope not to have to really do that for awhile, though, not until they're literally falling off. Ones that are to hard to alter I'll save for maternity.

It's funny, I know I'm going to lose the weight and keep it off, I just have to give it time. I feel good about myself and I have more motivation this time. I'm doing this for my health and my family.


:/ My weight hasn't changed much in the last 10 days. I had a planned carb night tonight (pasta, good fruits and veggies, yogurt, and a splurge of popcorn) and then am going back on track tomorrow. This worked before and I'm hoping it'll work again. If I don't see the same results, I won't do it again although I am concerned that this will become habit if it works for me. My ultimate concern would be if I do it too much a-- my body will stop responding or b-- I'll find it harder to get back on track. What happened before was I went out of town for 4 days for a wedding, was a bit naughty the whole time, and gained back 8 lbs. and took them all off in a matter of a couple of days and then plus some over the next little while. I'm hoping just one evening of splurging may give similar results without the initial gain. We will see.

My goals this week:

1-- especially if my carb splurge doesn't work, get rid of the scale in the bathroom so I won't bog myself down with numbers. Also, convince myself to listen to all the literature that says even if the numbers stay the same, losing inches and being in ketosis is good!

2-- No more soda. I think even the caffeine free diet Pepsi is effecting my weight, especially water retention. I know it definitely cuts into my water intake which is not good.

3-- find my pay stub so I can join the gym.
