hey paula, my wedding is the week after - june 17th :D. i feel really lucky to have found somebody so special as well. i'm going to check out your website a little later :). Thanks for sharing.

How's the challenge so far?
 
Yes you guys are too cute! And so are Dana and Sid! :) It's always fun to put faces to names. :)
So we're all June brides with about the same weight loss goals right? My goal is 20 pounds and that would put me at 130 for my wedding.
Dana and Skyler what are your goals?
 
I guess we got ourselves a lil possy here....it's sarah, by the way...

i am at 141 and would LOVE to be at 125-128 for June 1.
i am such a sloooooooooooooooow loser though, i dont know if that will work. i hope so. i am trying!! ;) I guess that is 13-16 lb loss in 3 1/2 months....14 weeks...it sure is possible, but i think i lose like 1 lb every 10 days meaning if i can keep it up, i'll be at 131ish for june....i need some way to get that extra push to the 120 range (even if it is the high 120's, i'd be SO PSYCHED).

Paula - how are you generally with losing? slow? fast? random?
Dana? goals?
 
Skyler, you guys are so cute!! :) And Paula you've already heard me gush over you and your sweet babies! And that cute FH Josh! ;)

My goals...well ultimately I'd like to weigh 125lbs. (I'm 5'3") but at the wedding it'd be nice to see the 130's. 135 ideally. I'm realistic though, I have had my slip ups.. and its not going to happen over night. Still.. as of last Friday, I had four month to go. :) 20lbs to get to 135. I can do that! ;) I hope! 5lbs per month. lets keep our fingers crossed.. we can allg et there!

Yep, just call us the June Bride Possy! LOL!
Sarah, I think you're going to see some good results with that superset workout I gave you. Let me know when eight weeks are up and we'll change it up a little more... plus I still owe ya a diet... shoot, promise I haven't forgotten, I'm just in the middle of a business deal (trying to buy a tanning salon) and it's got me swamped.
I am a fairly fast looser. I just have a lot of natural muscle tone so I see results in about half the time as most people with half the effort (not bragging I promise). I have a friend that teases me cuz she says I'm the only person she knows that can lose weight and still have Big Macs in my diet! LOL!

Dana, yes I have heard you gush and thanks! ;)

So I think we all want to weigh about the same but Sarah has less to loose (but her's is also a little harder to lose). Okay Possy, let's do this!!! We can keep each other motivated and I promise to try to help you both with anything you need! :D

I wish we could all be so lucky!!
 
Wow, a diet with big macs! That's amazing. It's great to see you working so hard towards your goal. Go June Bridal Possy! Whoo hoo! Good job ladies!
 
Ahh.. little miss big mac! ;) Hehe. Hope things are giong well girly! Keep up the good work, don't let your team down. And remember I'm your competition..so ya'll better step it up!! :D
 
Hi Paula :) Your family is so precious! I know all about the "not-so-good" relationship to the "best thing that ever happened" kind. Been there and doing that - isn't it great to get such a wonderful "second chance"?! :D Hope you have a great day and keep up the good work:) (Big mac's?! You lucky dog you!)
 
ooo I just love all the pictures! Im surrounded by gorgeous people!

paula, no you arent braggin' if its so! Im lucky with my legs. Best calves in the county! LOL:p but hey, Id probably trade them for a nice naturally slender waist in a heartbeat.
 
Great news! Josh and I just purchased a tanning salon... I am so excited!
We'll take it over on March 1st so in exactly two weeks, I'll be doing something I've always wanted to do (own my own business). :D

So today I've done well on the diet. Got my morning cardio in by shoveling snow. From the looks of it, I'll also be getting a little afternoon and evening cardio in as well. :cool:

Newleaf, don't your worry girl, I haven't forgotten who my competition is! ;)

Kate, I know what you mean about the legs. I wouldn't trade mine though cuz when I have the nice skinny waist AND the legs... wow! :eek: LOL!

BizeB, thanks about the family and yes, it is wonderful to have a second chance like this. :)

Don't worry ladies, it's not like I can ALWAYS eat the Big Macs! Just don't have to work as hard as some... but lately I haven't been trying much at all and we all see how far that's getting me! Only 16 weeks til my wedding... better get my butt in gear! :rolleyes:
 
Congrats on the salon! Thats great. Lucky you, you'll be golden all year long. Tanning is expensive, should be lucrative. Whoo hoo!
 
Thanks MissJB, lets just hope I don't get crazy about it and end up looking like that lady on Something About Mary! LOL! :eek:
 
Congratulations Paula! I'm so happy for you!

Just don't be in there all the time or you might have that leather look for your wedding day! :eek:
