A Glimpse into my mind

Mom called me at work today and asked what time tomorrow is the wedding I'm going to. I said two. She then said are you doing anything tonight? Um.. no.

"I saw an add for stuff at Penney's, want to meet me there after work?" Now I would be a very stupid boo to say no to a Mom funded shopping trip.

So after work we met up. She said that when she saw me earlier this week she felt embarassed by the fact that I looked like a walking pile of rags (paraphrasing) because my clothes were hanging off me, especially my pants. Sorry, broke ekat means no new clothes ekat.

And since Penney's is doing a sale she figured she'd help me out. 7 pairs of bras that fit right again, two blouses and... six pairs of jeans... size 14 baby! Stretch 14's too that fit almost perfectly.

Who's the boo? I think that tonight it's me.

We went out for dinner at Friendly's after and I got a HUGE salad. IT ws good and filling and I couldn't eat it all. I"m only able to guess on points but I'm saying I met all today since I spent a bunch for lunch as we ordered out for two of the girls at work's birthdays. I was good there too. 6" Subway turkey sub with lettuce, tomato and one slice of cheese. rather than mayo I put my own fat free ranch salad dressing and kept the points to 8 (had a Pringles snack pack with it).

I really want to thank everyone who have replied to my rant here and at _weightwatchers for the support against the bitches at work who tried to sabotage my morale with how I've been doing with my lifestyle adjustment.

I really really want to make this work.

I want to make 15 lb loss by Wednesday. and my 10% by the week after. That would be an average of 3+ pounds a week but that's what I've more or less been doing so far. I know I'm going to hit a plateau eventually/soonish. But I'll overcome that when I get to it.

Maybe next weekend I'll find my living room again and break out the workout tapes I own and actually try them (not just sit and watch them like I did last time).

Tomorrow is my co-worker's wedding. I'm not to sure about the actual ceremony. Full Catholic Mass. At least it's not in the middle of summer.

but the reception should be nice. It's at the Rich Foods Atrium. Which is GORGEOUS!!! Open bar, serf and turf for dinner and dessert stations all around. That will be my true challenge. I can do it, I can do it. (hears the little chorus of mice from Cinderella singing "we can do it").

Now also to start saving money up. Cuz you know... all this weight loss means I'm going to soooooooo need new garb for Pennsic this year.
