One good thing for me: This past weekend, I recomitted..
Today: I woke up to realize that I'm happily married and that I'm ready to go at it again! I'm up for the fight!!!
Positive thing for yesterday: I finally managed to do a ton of my laundry! Woo-hoo! I've been really busy for the past few weeks and kind of ignored the fact that I really needed to get it done, wearing the things from the bottom of my drawers that I typically wouldn't march out too often, LOL! (At least I had enough clean undies...) But I finally sat myself down and forced myself to do it last night. And now I have lots of nice, clean clothes. Ahh!
TWO positive things so far for today: first is that I'm IN THE 180S!! And as you can see, I'm more than a little psyched. The second thing is that one of my friend posted some pictures from a party we went to a couple weeks ago, and d*mn--I look good in them! LOL hope I don't sound too conceited, but I'm still amazed how I can go from being neutral towards most pictures of myself (or hating them) to suddenly loving them and thinking "Hey, that's a good one!" every time! Hehe.
Meredith, that's awesome about the pic confidence!!! To be honest, I'm hoping that I will EVENTUALLY lighten up on myself enough to believe most if not all pics look good! Right now it's still if body is at a certain angle, head up, chest out, smile, not too big though, hair perfect, etc.... lol
Positive: I'm getting all this work business in order and am taking the next week before christmas as study time for my CFP. woo hoo! (been putting it off for SO long)
LOL preppingbride, thanks! All you have to do is post a pic on here and we will all tell you how gorgeous you are! That should give a pretty good boost to your confidence about pictures.
My positive thing for yesterday is that I went shopping with a good friend, and we went to Old Navy. I know this has been said at least a zillion times before on 3FC, but it definitely felt weird to be in a "normal" people's store and not be totally out of place... I've physically been inside the store before, but I've never actually gone shopping there--like, picking things out, and trying them on, and actually buying things. It's so cool to think that I can actually buy the cheapo clearance stuff from regular stores and not ALWAYS have to trek to Lane Bryant, Avenue, etc and pay $30 for a shirt. I felt like a little kid in a candy store, LOL! And the absolute BEST part is that I ended up buying 2 things: a green cropped cardigan (size L) and a sexy black tank top (size M!!--not gonna lie, I was really freaking excited about fitting into a medium!) Normally I'm pretty cheap, but they were on sale, and I felt so good in them, and I just couldn't resist!! Hehe.
I finally figured out the kick-*** awesome gift for my fiance for Christmas!!! It has been an odyssey I swear.
And I spent the morning helping out a friend with a family issue and have figured out my schedule at christmas to have me spending extra time with them.
Even though I first hit 143.5 12 days ago (my weight this morning too!), I noticed that the pants I put on this morning are most definitely looser. As soon as I fastened them and let go, they settled lower on my hips instead of fitting like they should Surprised me! But now I have yet another pair of droopy crotch pants
I have finished my cards and thank you notes from the funeral, have all the shopping done and only two gifts left to wrap which I am going to do right now. I am on top of Life!
