Current Weight: 192 lbs 

7 lbs lost

42 lbs to my goal 

Alrighty! So I've been doing well so far! I have lost some weight in the last two weeks. I have joined a DietBet. I need to weigh in at 188.2 lbs by November 19th. I think this will be fairly easy as long as I stay on track.

So I went wedding dress shopping this past weekend!! It was definitely the most exciting thing I've done as far as wedding planning goes. It definitely made it more real! I wish my wedding was in only a month, not 11! But that will give me plenty of time to get into shape! So when I tried on dresses, it wasn't as depressing or upsetting as I thought it might be. Some dresses came in large sizes, some came in small sizes. So some fit, some didn't. However, when they ordered MY dress, they ordered a size 18! Ugh. But keep in mind that wedding dress sizes are different that regular dresses. I would typically be more of a size 14. They told me I can do all the size fluctuating that I want right now. They will have no problem taking the dress in if I lose weight. It will not be until 2 months before the wedding that they begin fittings. My dress isn't super fitted or anything so I would feel happy and comfortable in it right now. But I will feel a million times better if I am at my goal weight! So this is my big motivator right now!

I have been working out a lot this week. I went to Zumba and Cardio Dance on Monday and Tuesday. Today, I managed to squeeze in 30 minutes on the elliptical. And my legs and butt are sore! I do not usually get sore from zumba.

Well, I gotta go! I'll write soon! See ya!
