Dinner guests

Last night we had Helene and Micke and their kids over for dinner, I made pulled pork and slaw. I managed to stay away from dessert but I had two glasses of wine! So I'm not really looking forward to stepping on the scale, but perhaps I'll walk out to Wamo today to get in some extra exercise. Last night was great, the kids had a blast and we still got to bed at a decent hour... I might be getting old but That's what I call a perfect Friday night!

Day 4

Super tired this morning and pouring the kids cereal gave me the biggest carb craving! But no time for that, 2nd coffee then work in that order!

Day 3

So according to the scales I've already lost 3 pounds on this diet, I still don't want to try the dress on to see if it fits any better but I'm glad that the scales are moving in the right direction! 17 pounds to go and two months to do it in yikes!

The bridesmaid dress

I picked up the bridesmaid dress I will be wearing to my brothers wedding this summer from the post office yesterday. I finally got the courage to try it on after a few hours of finding other things to busy myself with! Yes since ordering the dress and its arrival I've put on a good 15 pounds! Long story short the dress "fits" if you can call it that, but it ain't pretty my friends! So I have two months to improve the situation and I'm starting my setting two fast rules. 1. I'm back on the dredged low carb diet and 2. I'm going to go for walks every night. I'm really scared I'll be messing up those wedding photos by looking like Jabba the Hut in them! So I need accountability, and here I will try to get it, by blogging about the next two months and my struggle to get into this bridesmaids dress!
