So in the time from our last post I learned a few thing. Least start from the beginning. Last October after my last post I had to get fitted for a bridesmaid dress. I bought the dress back in March or April before I started this whole crazy thing! I thought MAYBE by the time of the wedding on Nov. 20th, I would have lost 70 lbs. I bought the dress in a size 24. At the time I was wearing a 28-30. Most likely a 30 mainly because it was a wedding dress thingy. You girls know how that goes, they are always much smaller than they say. Anyhow… I went in on October 12 and had roughly 4 inches taken in. I asked the lady to make it even tighter knowing that in month I would lose more weight. She said she would, I didn’t believe her. I started my own plan. Flash forward to the wedding. I get the dress back from the tailor one week before the wedding. Its too big. Even though my new plan was to eat badly, I still lost weight. I’m down to 275. I’m kinda happy that the weight loss is slowing a bit. I’ve been eating a bit more carbs than I should the past month. But I’m okay with it in that case. At the wedding we still had to tape the dress to me. It was and is SO FREAKING HUGE! I looked like Grimace, Ronald Mcdonald’s special purple friend. It was like a purple snuggie! Here’s the kicker. The night of the rehearsal dinner I was wearing a dress in the size 18/20, granted I wore control top panty hose, but still I looked killer. I couldn’t believe that I was wearing something that small!
I need to get back on track and cut back on my carb intake again. Also, started going to the gym. Met with a personal trainer friday. She kicked my ass from here to Memphis. And I loved it! My arms hurt, my thighs burn and I am excited to do it again. I also started E Mealz, from mealtimemakeover.com. Okay! This is awesome! Its for everyone not just people trying to lose weight, its for people wanting to save money. Sorry, kinda excited about it. As I was saying, you sign up for it, its about $5 a month. You pick your meal plan, I did low carb for two people. They have other meal plans, for kroger and a family, walmart, weight watcher, low fat, all kinds! They check out the deals at the grocery store and see whats on sale, and then make up the meals. You get the meal plan once a week for 5 meals plus the grocery list and the recipes for the meals. I had chuck roast, curry chicken, jambalaya, salmon, and beef stroganoff. I bought all the stuff for the meal and the side dishes that go with it for $50!! And its soo GOOODDDD! The curry chicken was awesome! Having a meal plan for me that is low carb and tastes good really helps.
Anyhow, Gotta run passing out soup for Soup and Socks. Also, totally random and off the subject, Adam Lambert is weird looking.
