They had a gown giveaway yesterday here on base. I went with my friend and it was a pretty fun time. EXCEPT, trying on dresses in a room with 10 other women who are all freaking SKINNY was not the most ego boosting. Nor was having half the dresses not fit. Granted, it was mostly my jubblies that didn’t fit over, but still no fun all the same. I finally found one that I liked… it’s not my style, but free does hapen to be! :) It’s a two piece, black, LONG ball skirt that is gorgeous (I am 5′9″ so long is never really long… it’s so hard to find formal stuff!), and a halter top that’s very fitting with a mini cutout cleavage cam. It is a 14, which in formal means 12. The top fits, but is too tight to wear as it squishes out a little reverse muffin topish at the bottom and the skirt is a little too tight as it is a little muffin topish itself! BUT, if I can lose 10ish pounds, it will be SO hott!!! It really is flattering. Love it!

So, after this humiliation that I suffered yesterday you would think I’d be motivated… do some cardio and eat right. WRONG. I was a little depressed I let myself go. I tried on my dress from last year and it is TIGHT. What happens next? Chocolate and get this… low fat pringles. ICK! 1st of all, I don’t like chips. 2nd of all, I especially don’t like fake chips! What even is in that stuff? Yeah, I think I ate about 5 servings of the 7 the can had to offer thanks to the grace of the hubbs who knew I would feel massive amounts of guilt later. And, a mini ice cream sundae, although that was legit since we celebrated little man’s birthday formally yesterday. Anyway, I am just feeling so discusted right now, physically and mentally. :(

So, today I am starting my new 6 week plan… Sunday is food prep day. Since we started soccer I have been thrown for a loop and not been prepared, and that equals failure. I am gonna cook like a mad woman today (though I’m not sad about that because I both love cooking and I got a new apron the other day that is too effin cute!), and make sure I have all weeks lunch made, too. In addition, I am going back to the cardio + weight training that I used to do. The hubby is going to map me out a 5K a day and then 4 times a week I will do weight training. I may gain a little at the beginning, but that’s ok because I want nice, toned arms for my halter! :) So the plan there is to schedule and plan my workouts on Sunday, too, so I know exactly what I am supposed to do every day of the week. I am gonna be busy today…

How are all you chickies doing? I didn’t get to read much the last few days. Hope you are having a great weekend!!
