New Years Resolution: Buff Bride

So I wanted to loose 60 lbs last year and I only fell short of that goal by 10 lbs. but even so I fell short! So I have a new goal to loose 20 lbs by spring break so that I will have lost all that I wanted to plus an additional 10 to top off the final product so to say! It has been a real wake up call to loose the weight! I started weight watchers last January and by the time Kyle proposed I had lost 20 lbs. which worked out nicely for those pictures we have of that wonderful night. Then when I realized that my family and friends would all be looking me at me on my wedding day I knew that 20lbs was only the beginning, but along the way it became more than what others thought I really feel good about myself and the fact that I want to keep up my new healthy lifestyle can only benefit the family that Kyle and will start this August. I have started counting my points and working out every morning I get up early 7 a.m just to hit the gym. (my classes don't even start until 12:30 but I am getting so much done in the mornings because I get my body moving!) SO HERE'S TO 2009 the year of the BUFF BRIDE!

My Wedding Dress Came In!

So I got a phone call from David's Bridal my wedding dress is in!!!!!!!!!!!!!...too bad I am 600 miles away in stinky Lubbock....I will have to wait! Since my dress came in so fast hopefully the bridesmaid dresses come equally as fast.

Thank You

Well, the holidays are over and I am back in Lubbock and classes start the day after tomorrow! bummer!

I really enjoyed seeing all of you over the Christmas break and I wanted to Thank you all for helping out at brickhouse bridal you were all so eager to help when the going got tough. I know that I was caught off guard but you were all there helping me stay calm and even on the phone trying to locate the dress somewhere else! That really meant a lot to me. But on a more positive note I really love the dress I went with so much! After I had time to let it sink in I really decided it was the best way to go because the dress was so flattering on all of you! I will be calling Brickhouse sometime in Feburary to find out if the dresses are in so you gals can go and pick them up!

Thank you all so much! I really got a ton done for the wedding over the break and it is nice to have advice from those who have already been there, those who are planning, and those who have my back no matter what!

Love you all!
