Monday Blues

Well somehow its Monday again and as always time is flying. The weekend was a good one, and I am so excited that we are now into the last week of Winter, surely that gives everyone something little to smile about?? Its such a beautiful day outside today too, blue skies and the sun is shining, perfect for an after work run I think, and hopefully some weights too when I get home, providing I can get out of the office in daylight.

So on the weekend as I have already said I have had a baby shower and an engagement party, both were pretty nice times, but I am absolutely exhausted today from not having a chance to have a break over the weekend, thank god netball had finished or there would have been absolutely no time at all.

At least this week starts off a bit slower. Just work and some exercise tonight and tomorrow, hopefully do some washing too. I am trying to limit the dairy in my diet now and I am starting to feel better for it. Also need to book into the doctors as some point for a mole check, and get this bloody tummy sorted too, its time to know whether its a dairy or lactose intolerance that is causing me this issue.

I am a bit excited for Wednesday as I have the first industry night dinner for my new job, which should be exciting, its at a brewery, so hopefully that means a nice feed, some good drinks and learning some information too. Finally getting my hair done on Thursday too which will be nice, because it has been months!!!

Anyways I should get back into some work, just needed a 10 minute break to clear the brain so I could work more efficiently haha!

3000 views WOW!

So today I hit the 3000 blog page views and all I can say is AMAZING, I can't believe that people actually find this entertaining enough to want to read, so thank you, its very nice to know. Anyways its time for a weigh in!!!

3 months ago, this is where I was sitting

Thigh: 57cm
Waist: 69cm
Butt: 100cm...how big does that sound?
Arm: 30cm...muscly? haha
Clothing Size:10

Today
Thigh: 57cm but much more toned
Waist: 65cm woohoo thats a 4cm loss!
Butt: 89 cm...thats a whopping 11cm loss!!!
Arm: 30.5cm...more muscly? Goaling at netball probably helped that along
Clothing Size:8-10

Wow! Well I am definitely happy with that, I could notice some changes, but didnt realise the changes! That gives me great confidence to keep on going. So hopefully do some more exercise tomorrow and keep eating well.

I love the weekend

Well look what we have here, I actually got up early enough to post another blog, I have also already been for a 15 minute run and done 100 sit ups to help kick start the day. Its something that I really want to do everyday. But I hate the cold which does cause a lot of problems when it comes to me getting up early, particularly when its technically still winter.

Anyways I haven't done a weigh in this morning because I have already drank 600mL of water so it wouldnt be an accurate reading, so I will weigh in tomorrow morning. I am also hoping to do measurements tomorrow to see if there has been any change over the last couple months, I am hoping there will be a slight change, particularly around the legs and bum region!

Anyways today is the day that I can go pick up my wedding dress. I am so so excited. I have an hour to get ready, I am going to do my hair and make-up nice, put on my lingerie that I plan to wear on the day and also take the jewellery and see how it all looks together, fingers crossed it looks good, or I might be finding new accessories! I so can't wait to see the dress on again! Part of me is a little scared though...what if I dont like it anymore? I am sure as soon as I put the dress on, it is going to look great and exactly how I remember it.

Then I will have the joy of going food shopping, and then present shopping for the engagement party and bridal shower that I have over the next couple of days. Then maybe, just maybe I can start printing out the place cards!!!!

Also great news on the per head cost for the reception! I am a bit of a dummy apparently, because it hasnt gone up $30 like i thought, I just didnt read that it now includes the beverage package (worth $30), so I was adding the $30 on top again!! That brings us down to a much more reasonable $85 per head, meaning we just saved $3k hahaha, not that we had it anyways haha....

Have a great weekend everybody!!

Nearly the weekend!!!

Wow so what a week it has been! Last night was fantastic, having hair and make-up trials with the girls for Stephs wedding, I loved how great the hairdressers did all our hair! Looked fantastic! We then headed back to the bride to be's house for some yummy pizza for dinner...probably not the best thought out dinner idea for me, as my tummy has been regretting it every since. But o well. One of the bridesmaids did our make-up and I thought it looked perfect! I am so excited for the day to come around, 99 to go!

So tonight I am hopefully going to make a start on the place cards! In great news also, it looks like our price per head for the dinner menu hasnt been increased! Which means we might even be able to add a couple people back on to the list! But we will see how it goes, I really only want people there who actually care about me. Turns out so many people I thought would go out of there way for me...actually wont. Definitely disappointing when you would do anything for them. But thats life hey!

Anyways so I am so glad that its Friday, I am looking forward to some yummy drinks over the weekend, I have a relaxing night at home tonight, then hopefully get up and do some exercise tomorrow, weather permitting of course, then off to get my wedding dress, probably a lot of house cleaning when I get back from that, then off to a friends engagment party, then finishing off Sunday with a bridal shower, so hopefully a fun weekend, but one that I think will turn out to be pretty tiring to say the least!

I don't know if I will have time for my saturday weight update, so If not. have a great weekend all!!!

7 Months to Go!!!

Wow! Well I have certainly had a few days that will get locked into the memory bank. Tuesday night was my netball clubs vote count, and I came runners up best and fairest, well equal runners up with an amazing netballer and its just such a shock! 2 days later and I still cant believe it. This was my first season of playing netball properly in a league so to get a trophy is just unexpected, but also its so nice to feel really good at something. Hopefully the season won't clash too much with next years wedding and I'll be back to play again.

Anyways today is August 23rd, that means exactly 7 months to the wedding, and I am feeling a lot better about things now. I have started statusing about the wedding when I want too, because if people who I am friends with dont like it, they are clearly not me friends and can delete me, and then I will happily delete them from the wedding guest list too haha!

So as for wedding plans this week, I have heard back from the photographer and he is happy with the time frames I have given him, I have also contacted our florist for a revised quote because mum believes our grandma should have corsages, I guess she is right that they should get something, but it still seems a little pointless to me, but as most of you know, I am not the biggest an of flowers. I have barely been home this week so I haven't had the chance to start the place cards as yet, but hopefully will get this started over the next few days, and definitely over the weekend...well maybe.

Tonight I have the hair and make-up trials for my besties wedding! So exciting!!! Its a hairdresser I have never been to before, so I am looking forward to seeing how they work and what sort of job they do, I know the girl who runs it, so I am sure it will be a great experience and a great result too.

7 months to go...Its actually starting to feel like its going to happen now, especially with me being able to pick up my wedding dress soon! I really can't wait for the day to roll around!!!

Its Tuesday, Gotta get down on Tuesday

Sorry for putting that incredibly bad song in your head, but for some reason its stuck in mine, usually I can handle it....providing its Friday.

Last night was the League vote count for netball, I didnt attend, but was stoked to hear that I recieved 4 votes!!!! I didn't expect to recieve any considering it was my first season playing. So very very happy. Tonight we have our club vote count, I don't think we will find out who wins, but excited to have a nice casual night with the girls before the netball trip away.

So what else has been happening? Well not a lot because I have been posting everyday again. I have had a little bit of dairy so my tummy still isn't loving me, but have cut it down dramatically, as well as I am trying to do a little bit...even if its only 15 minutes exercise everyday and I think I am feeling better because of it.

This week I am also hoping to start printing out the place cards for the wedding. I still have to decide on a font, and whether to use Mr. and Mrs, First, and last names etc. So that will be fun to play around with.

ALSO in big news, my wedding dress has arrived! I can't wait to see it and try it on again! Hopefully it still fit!!! Fingers crossed anyways! Probably won't pick it up for a while!
