Goal pic

I know they say that you should never compare yourself to anyone else (I'm speaking as far as body types..) but I LOVE LOVE LOVE the show Biggest Loser and I fell in love with Stephanie from last season. Anyway, I found this pic, and now Im obsessed with it (yes..its printed off in my planner..and if you know me..that planner never leaves my side)

On with the picture...Stephanie is 5'8, just like me, and in her before picture, she weighed 262lbs (my highest weight was 260+) and in her after picture, she weighs 163lbs..and my final goal is 160! So...needless to say, this seems very realistic to me! I have 19lbs to go..so help keep me on track so I can look as hot as Stephanie here!

WLC

And the tally this week is...
I lost 2.6 and Cam lost 1.2! I am officially at the lowest I've been since jr.high!! I will post a goal pic that I have later...

Cute!

Last night Katie came over to catch-up, and brought The Back-up Plan for us to watch! It is such a cute movie! If you are thinking about renting it..it is worth it!

Just got home from the pool, gonna go run, and spend the rest of the evening crafting! I love my life :)

eh..

I didn't end up getting a purse last night..I didn't fall in love with any of them. I had one in mind that I wanted, and when I didn't find it, I was disappointed. O-well...

This weekend is going to be nice and relaxing! A few errands, a run, then going to lay out at the pool all day and read my book. I think tomorrow night a couple of girlfriends are going to come over and watch a movie as well!

Hope you all have a good weekend!

Babys got a new pair of shoes!

Tuesday night, I got off work and went to Great Plains running to get fitted for running shoes. I was so upset when I got there, and found out they have gone out of business! A guy at work had been telling me about a place in Lawrence http://www.garrygribbles.com/ that I could go to get fitted. So, Wednesday night I went up there, blah blah blah, got fitted, and these are the shoes I came home with! They aren't the cutest things, but I will only wear them when running/working out..so I guess it doesn't matter really. Not to mention, they were orig. $100 something, and clearanced out at $69!! Sold!


Also, my sweet girlfriend Allison is always wearing the cutest clothes (and of course I'm always pestering her as to where they came from) anyways, she had on this adorable green/purple dress in one of her pics, and said she got it from Target this summer. So, in all my free time at work, I was trying to find it online, but was unsuccessful. I ended up stopping by Target while I was out and about this week, and guess what I found on the clearance rack for $5!!!!!!!!!!!!! You got it..the dress! I was stressed tho, because they only had a szs M and XXL; I thought I'd take my chances and try the medium, and I could always use it as a "goal" dress (hey..why not? $5!) but the medium FIT!! I was so happy I could have danced!! I would have added a pic on here, but like I said...I couldn't find the thing online anywhere!

Tonight Ashley and I are off to a purse party at our gf Emily's. I really want a fun purse, so hopefully I'll be back with another post on my purchase tonight at the party!!

ps..9 days left!

WLC

Its Monday again...I lost 1.8lbs, and Cam lost 3.5! Although we are both happy we lost... we are both hoping for much higher numbers next week!

Also, Monday nights are our "cheat" nights if we both lose at WLC. Tonight we met up with Cam's dad at Jose Peppers for dinner...food was good, service SUCKED a fatty...

Tomorrow is work, and I am going after work to get tested/fitted for running shoes. I know it sounds lame, but I am really looking forward to it, my hips will be very excited to have some relief!

Also, running the 5k in 12 days!! We timed it this am, and we'd like to be able to shave off a few minutes, and be able to run it in 30 minutes or less...we will see. I am also running the Washburn Alumni 5k with Ashley on the 18th! I love this new hobby (and I haven't even ran one yet..lol) I got some information on a Mud Run this Saturday in Missouri, but I have nobody that can go with me...if you know of anyone that wants to...let me know!! If not, we will just have to wait until the next one!

Talk soon

Shower.Sushi.Shopping.Movie...I love my life

I think I failed to mention, a couple of weeks ago, Cam suprised me and sent me flowers to work! It made my day!


Onto today...I woke up this am after only a few hours of sleep (thank you lame rap concert at the Expo) and went to my sisters BFF's baby shower in KC. Then mom, Laura and I all went for sushi in downtown Lawrence...melt my heart, I could have stayed there all day, it was yumm-o! Here is a pic of me and Laura at Yokohamas; I should have taken one of our food!


After we rolled out of the booth, mom wanted a "non-old lady purse" so we took her to Target where her and Laura found her a cute purple purse...meanwhile, rude me was shopping for myself, and found this fun new wallet (sorry for the small pic..its all I could find) Im sure it will look cute with a fun new purse from Emily's purse party I'll be going to Thursday!


After Target, we went to see Eat.Pray.Love....it was good!! Of course, movies NEVER compare to the book, so much is left out, but I would go see it again! Laura told us on the way out, even the old man next to her was crying...I think if you've gone through a major life changing event (divorce especially) you will be able to relate to this much more!


I better get for now, tomorrow is the waxing party! I'll be so glad to have my armpits non-european again!
