happy dance! Happy Dance

No, my friends, I have not found that elusive real job.

The big news is: for the first time in years, when I stepped on the scale it said "139.0"!!!!! OMG!!! OMG!!! Under 140 lbs is a milestone. I think I saw it last in COLLEGE! I know deep down that it was probably more of a fluke having to do with water weight but it still made me feel great today! Definitely proof I'm headed in the right direction!

And, if I am in fact below 140, I'll have to adjust the points I eat in a day as well as the points I assign my workouts, but that's a minor detail. :) I'm really liking this points system thing. I didn't know how I'd feel about it but it's flexible, there's the amount of control I crave. I have mixed results staying within range, but it definitely makes me more accountable for what I eat! That alone and the attempt to stay near those points is really helping this whole adventure. I currently get 22 points/day, but my goal for next week is to try to decrease it to 21/day. My other goal is to plan out my day instead of trying to retroactively make sure I stayed within range.

Other news:
10K in just over a month!

I'm a shift supervisor at work. Tonight was my first shift as lead! It went good in some ways, in other not so well. I was quite discombobulated as it was my first day back in 3 days AND I was closing (which I almost never did before now).

Wedding:
I've returned to being excited to plan! I hope over the next two months I can take a big chunk out the planning! On tap for this month:

  1. Find Photographer !!!!!
  2. Figure out ceremony situation
  3. Bridesmaid dress shopping plans to be made for October
  4. Did I mention figure out the dang ceremony situation??
On the radar:
  1. Flowers
  2. start talking to reception place regarding menu, timing, etc
  3. invites
  4. save the dates
  5. favors.. if any (I went to a wedding this last weekend and they didn't have them and I never even noticed until someone pointed that out... proves just how unimportant it is...)
Can you believe I'm actually doing well at this whole planning ahead thing?
