Your weekend sounds like so much fun. I would loooove to go shopping without being self-conscious. I look at an outfit and immediately decide its too small for me (it usually is, but I just jump to that conclusion right away). I hope one day I don't have to feel that way.
Good luck at the dentist's. I hope its nothing serious.

Your weekend sounds like a ton of fun! And the cheats could have been a heck of a lot worse, don't worry about it. And you still got some exercise in, so that's great.
I bet it felt awesome when that guy hit on you. I laughed when I read about him seeing your ring. Lol, poor guy. But look at you with your hot self, turning guys down left and right! ^_~
Good luck at the dentist and your other appointment. Hope everything goes well!

Hey Lisa, it sounds like you had a really fun weekend. And look at you little miss hott stuff turning down gorgeous men! What a great confidence boost! And whats great is that he knew he was missing out on a beautiful girl and he was right, you really are beautiful. I think no matter how many times you hear your beautful from your loved ones it starts to feel like yeah whatever they have to say that because they love me, but when it comes from a stranger its like hey maybe I am hot lol. Don't worry about your weekend I know your going to kick butt this week. I hope your stomach feels better and I hope everything went well at your appointment.
Hey there! It does sound like a fun weekend, especially getting hit on by that guy. xD
I hope your dentist visits go well. I just went and had 6 cavities re-filled today!
You're doing great work, and I especially like that you are not hung up on doing every day perfectly or anything! Keep it up.

Haha I love the story about the guy tryin' to hit on you! I hope you can put a picture up from that night so we can see how sexayyyy you were! YEAHHH GIRL!!!! Sounds like you had a really fun weekend... it was half and half with you being "good" and "bad" but you weren't ALL bad!! And I don't think you were even that bad at all!!! Just enjoy yourself, right?! That's what counts!
Honestly, since I've stopped being so picky with everything, allowing myself to treats and whatnot, I feel MUCH better! I don't feel guilty if I want a taste of something. I just have it and enjoy it. But I'm not pigging out on it. I'm still eating healthy foods as well. For some reason I feel like my stomach doesn't look as "fat" as I thought it was looking even though I'm not being strict with what I'm eating. I just feel overall like I'm already so much more relaxed and not obsessive and it just feels GOOD.
Chat with you soon!

Thanks Theresa - the dentist was horrible - I was there for 2 hours and have to go back to get a crown when I can afford it - hopefully after the wedding.
It was a huge ego boost! I can't remember the last time I was hit on.
You'll get there Juni - I have no doubts! I love shopping now! I used to hate it! I still always go for the bigger sizes so when I have to ask for a smaller size it's so exciting!! It takes so much longer to go through the mall now because I can shop in every store and before I would only go to Ricky's, Old Navy and Reitmans because the XL was actually an XL or they carried XXL and pants up to size 18.
Yes I agree they could have been a lot worse - everyone wanted McD's after the bar and I talked them all out of it! My sister thanked me in the morning!
Well I should be kicking butt this week but the holiday Monday threw me off course - hoping to get it back today and finish on a good note. My stomach still sucks but hopefully some green tea today will fix it. Good to see you around - I was missing your updates!
It totally helped my confidence! I remembered another time I got hit on at the bar and the guy told me he liked big curvy women and I thought this pick up line was much better!
Ouch - dentists are the worst - the sound of the drill just sends shivers down my spine. I wish I could be perfect everyday but it's just not reality for me so I just need to be honest with myself and try the best I can.I just went and had 6 cavities re-filled today!
You're doing great work, and I especially like that you are not hung up on doing every day perfectly or anything! Keep it up.
I did have a really fun weekend and since my sister lives so far away I have to take advantage of the few times we get together and enjoy it the best I can so I really didn't feel guilty about any of it. I'm going to post a pic right now. So glad you are feeling better and finding a plan that has more balance for you - everyone has to find what works for them because everyone is different - what works for one might not work for the other but as long as you don't give up and keep trying that's all that matters!
So yesterday was pretty horrible. I didn't eat breakfast before my dentist appointment because I didn't want to show up with stuff in my teeth and that was a big mistake because when I finally left the dentist I was starving. I went home and made a sandwich - don't know why I didn't think to make soup. My mouth was frozen from the filling she fixed - she told me I was going to have some pain because it was a difficult tooth and didn't go as planned. She also told me I have to go back and get a crown but my work only pays half so it will still cost almost $400 so I have to wait till after the wedding. Anyway I chomped down on my sandwich and a couple bites into it my sandwich was covered in blood - I had taken two huge bites out of the inside of my cheek and didn't feel it because it was so frozen still. You would think that would have turned me off from eating for a while but it didn't. I found some waffer cookies my hunnie brought back from fishing and ate almost the whole pack. I had a pudding cup and some blueberries and then my hunnie came home and made some tortilla pizza's and after that I was stuffed. My stomach was hurting so bad and I really wanted to exercise but I didn't know if it would make me feel better or worse.
I looked at the gym schedule and noticed a Kettle Bell class starting in an hour and sucked it up and went. The first 20 minutes I thought my stomach was going to explode but as I kept on going it got better. I finished the full hour and went home. BL was about to start so I got my runners on and went on the treadmill for 45 min - 3.2 miles - mostly at 4.2 mph and incline 7, burned 475 calories. I was feeling a little better about my snack attacks but then once BL was over and I started watching Parenthood the snacking started again - cheese, crackers and pickles, bun w margarine & jam and a chocolate covered granola bar - wow full belly again! Crawled to bed feeling like crap and just couldn't get out of bed this morning to exercise! It's just not my week. I'm hoping I can do some damage control today and tomorrow and hopefully stay the same for weigh-in but right now I'm thinking I've gained. The funny thing is I don't feel bad about it because I know I will get it together and get it off again. Today is a new day and I hope to get my cravings under control. I've just had so much sugar lately - my body is screaming for more!
Here's a couple pics from the weekend and an old comparison pic of my sister and I. I also wanted to post a pic of our cat Max because although I talk bad about him lots he's actually pretty sweet.

I love how in the one pic you are standing under the sign that says "HOT STUFF" lol! And right away I laughed when I saw the pic of you and the cat because you always talk about how annoying it is!! LOL loved the pics they made me smile Sorry to hear about your dentist issue. I HATE the dentist. I had to get a crown 2 years ago and I did not like it one bit! I'm glad you went to the kettle bell class AND did the treadmill! I watched BL this morning (I taped it last night because I was busy) and I smiled really big when Stephanie came on because like I've said before she always reminds me of you and I just pictured YOU up there looking just as beautiful. I think she's your height but she's 20 pounds heavier than you so I thought about how tiny you would look standing up there!
Have a great day, get that damage control in. You can do it, you always do
TTYL!

OMG! I loooove th pics. You are looking smashing! And SUCH a cute outfit (was that one of the ones you got this weekend?). You got some great workouts at the gym and with BL too. Very nice! I hope you don't have to go to the dentist anymore, the visit sounds bad (i dont like dentists) .
I dont think you did bad but the good thing about midweek is that you still have three days to be good. I am confident you are going to be back to working out and being really good about food from today.
Happy hump day!

Lisa you look awesome!!! And OMG- look at those CHEEKBONES!!!
Sorry to hear yesterday wasn't a good day for you... it wasn't for me either!!! Just got to pick ourselves up and get right back into it!! I'm sure you haven't done as much damage as you think... you did do a shitload of exercise in the middle!
Make today an awesome day- I plan to!! We can do this!

Wow, you look absolutely FABULOUS!!
Sorry you had a bit of an issue with the dentist. I had the very same thing happen to me just the other day as well! Dental work threw off my eating, got too hungry, ended up binging. But way to go being ready to get back on track! I know you can do it.

Thanks Veronique - sorry I haven't been over to visit since the weekend - I have lots of catching up to do - hope you are well.
Thank you! I do feel like if I set my mind to it I can kick butt so I'm not feeling too guilty being a little slack this week - next week I will rule it again!
Thanks Sarah - I didn't even notice the sign in the pic - that's so funny. I was wondering how tall she was too - she looked great! I did get some damage control in yesterday and today is going to kick butt!I love how in the one pic you are standing under the sign that says "HOT STUFF" lol!

Thanks - I can't take any credit because it was a total surprise and I didn't help pick it out. He has good taste - sometimes.OH and that ring is BLINGIN'!!! soo pretty!!!
Thanks MJ - how exciting!! Thanks for all your hard work put into organizing that challenge - I'm going to miss it!
Thanks Juni - yes it is part of what I bought - the little dress/shirt was only $15 and the sweater was on sale for $10! I just love shopping now - it's dangerous!
Aww I totally understand missing your sister - hopefully you will get to visit often. I keep trying to convince my sisters to move home but there isn't work here for them. Luckily my one sister works for West Jet so we all get good deals to visit lots.
Thanks Janvier - stomach is feeling much better today! I just needed a good day to make things right again. Miss you and I'm sorry I haven't been around. Tomorrow I should get lots of time to catch up!
Thanks Luz - you are right - we can do it! The exercise definitly helped but it could have been much better!
Thank you so much!Wow, you look absolutely FABULOUS!!
But way to go being ready to get back on track! I know you can do it.
I have been so swamped with work and today isn't looking any better. I know things will calm down tomorrow because most of the managers are on holidays and I should be caught up. I promise to get around and visit then - I'm so curious how you are all doing since the weekend - reading your journals always motivates me when I need it to!
Yesterday was good! My WW points were in line and I went to gym after work and ran 3.2 miles in 35 min with a warm up and cool down, did 10 min on the stepper and 15 min abs, sides and back and finished with a good stretch. One of my bridesmaid's came over and we went for a 6km walk - we weren't walking fast and I barely broke a sweat but it was still something.
Tonight I'm going shopping with my mom for shoes for the wedding because I'm bringing my dress in this weekend to get altered and she wants me to have my shoes first. I also want to go to a Kettle Bell class at 7:30 pm so hopefully I can fit that in. I'm going to my weigh-in tomorrow but I know I won't be down. It really hasn't been a great week and I'll be happy just to stay the same of hopefully not gain more than 1 pound! Next week I will put it into high gear again and hopefully have a good loss. Until tomorrow forum friends
Hope you are all well and being really healthy!!
