To my vast readership, I apologize for being so neglectful of my blog in the past couple of weeks! Once the engagement finally happened, wedding planning has overtaken my life - afterall, I only have 80 days left until the wedding on October 26!!!
I'm still dieting - counting my calories, drinking water, running. I'm down 4.5lbs total, looking to break below 130 this week! I only had the one week of 2lb loss - it's mostly been 1lb or half a pound. I've adjusted my calories back up this week. It is very true, you have to eat it to lose it! I'm going to try and intensify my workouts a little this week too to see how much of a difference that makes, and drink more than 64oz of water each day. TRACKING is the key! It's great to be able to look back at what I've done week-to-week to see where adjustments might be needed.
I'm very proud of myself for staying motivated and disciplined for (going on) 5 weeks now - that is HUGE for me! Even at this pace, I should easily lose the full 20lbs by my wedding date. Which I guess could be a bad thing, dress-wise. I go tomorrow evening with my bridesmaids to try on pretty, pretty dresses - so excited!!! I just hope a 15lb loss between now and October doesn't require massive alterations to my dress. To say our budget is tight for this wedding is a severe understatement therefore I need as few alterations as possible!
P.S. I've created our wedding website at http://MariaVernon.ourwedding.com - just the basic info (and a scary little countdown at the top!)
