Hellloooo
Okay, so I have been attempting to get a post up here for the longest time but what with the wedding and then the honeymoon, well, time has absolutely flown by and now here we are only a couple of days from Thanksgiving! Whew!
Where to start?!?! The wedding was beautiful... November 5th and a sunny 70 degrees... up here in the Northeast that is not normal but we took it :-) The fall leaves were at their peak and the weather was gorgeous and the church was set up for a candlelight ceremony. What more could a bride ask for??? I can't say the reception went off without a hitch as our Dj cancelled out that day- ugh- but whatever, it was still great and I had all of the music we needed for the different dances :-)
Now, as for the honeymoon, that is a whole other story. We went on a cruise in the caribbean! It was beautiful, this ship was gorgeous and, of course, there was soooo much food. I will admit now to gaining something like 10 pounds. I think my body was just overwhelmed by all of the good food I was giving it and just sucked it all in. I mean, I think we ate probably four meals a day. It was so good and I would say I was disappointed in that but it was my honeymoon and I enjoyed myself. Now, though, I have to get my big butt back on track and lose that weight plus the rest of those pounds I have been out to get.
I think I am weighing in somewhere between 210 and 215... ugh. SO I am hoping by Christmas to be a steady 205 (at least) and then go from there. I have to remind myself and make the conscious effort that eating is not a hobby. I have noticed that I like to eat when I am bored- yay for me, a revelation. So I am going to start paying more attention to that and when I do want food- notice I did not say when I am hungry, big difference- I will analyze more of what my environment and such is like. Am I bored, or stressed, or is something else going on where I feel the need for food; and why food? Hopefully by working on that and also realizing that I can be better prepared with snacks and such for when I am hungry instead of thinking about what is downstairs in the vending machine- ahh!
Anyhoo- that is where things are now and I will post some pics of the wedding and so on when we actually get some to post.
Hmm, I feel better already with just the fact that I have put some kind of plan down on paper (so to speak).
Cheers!
