Skyler, you are definitely NOT alone! You, me and Dana are on the final stretch! :eek:
I'll email ya the dress I chose. I can't download it from this computer for some reason.
 
Wooooohoooooooo Paula Is Home!! I Am So Proud Of All Of You I Cant Wait To Celebrate When You Hit Them Goals For The Weddings And See The Pics!!
 
I'm so glad to see your back! We've all missed you lots :)

Well, have a great weekend, hope ya have more time for us soon....sniff....lol. seeya!
 
Man how time flies! I can't believe I haven't been in here for so long again!
Everything is going well for me.... I'm just really busy still. Down to 145 and thinking about hiring a personal trainer for the last ten pounds. Hope everyone is doing well! I really will try to get to all of your diaries today. :D
 
OOOhhh I can't wait till I'm at the "last 10"!! I would be soooo happy :) sometimes the trainers are totally worth it, they could definately push ya to go harder- plus, if your spending the money, ya don't wanna waste it lol :)
 
wow - down to the last 10!! so exciting. that is awesome. I need a plan as well for the next 5 weeks...ugh...you'd think i could lose 8 but whatever i do, doesnt seem to change that evil box! so excited for you!!!! glad things are well,

That is so true Jess... I honestly hate spending the money because I already know everything BUT I can't make myself do it, ya know? Maybe giving this guy ALL MY MONEY (lol!) will motivate me.
I just had a couple of rough days with an ex-boyfriend saying some mean things about me and that was so hard that I was really hoping I'd lose a few pounds from the stress... no such luck. Man, that boy really is completely USELESS! LOL! :rolleyes: Oh well, knock me down a thousand times; I'll get up a thousand and one! ;)

I might have mentioned this but I have a new wedding dress (this is the third one). I'll try to post the pics so you can all see what I'm working with. I HATE how bulky I am. I feel like I look like a man in a dress... I would really like the PT to get me REALLY lean by the wedding. It's only 5 weeks but my body changes fast when I really focus on it so I think I can make some major changes by then.

Skyler hon, stop relying on the box! You are only eight pounds from your goal AND I know for a fact, you've gained muscle! Besides, YOU LOOK GOOD GIRL!

Anyway, here are the pics of me in the dress...

You look great! what a pretty dress to... you'll get there by your wedding, definately. And you DON"T look like a man :rolleyes:
 
Thanks ladies... Jess, I just feel so BIG sometimes! Because I'm so short and stocky, I really think I need to get smaller than if I didn't carry as much muscle just so I don't look so "thick"! Thanks for the compliments though.... I feel pretty good all in all... Off to the PT in about an hour... I'll be back to post what he says (and how in debt I'm going to be afterward!).
 
Paula!!!!! Welcome back!!! How did it go at the PT?

You DON'T look like a guy!!!! Sheesh, woman! You look great!

Congrats on being at your last ten!! Oh, I can't wait until I can say that!!!! You've worked so hard and you SOO deserve it! :D

Keep up the wonderful work - you will DEFINITLY make your goal :D
 
Thank you, thank you! Well the PT got me.... he convinced me to pay him $600 for 25 sessions starting tomorrow morning! Yep, bright and early tomorrow morning I have no choice but to get my a** up and go to the gym! LOL!
So I will be back tomorrow to let you all know how it goes!
 
Hi Puala,
Glad to see you back :D You look absolutely Beautiful.. You are NOT stocky. You have a great toned body. Be proud. At least your body isn't loose and flabby like me :p The dress is perfect. have a great night and good luck with the PT
 
Can't wait to hear how your first PT session went. I'm curious what kind of program PT put you on... $600 for 25 is not too bad... But I'm comparing it with horseback riding lessons, and those are expensive! (A private lesson can be anywhere from $40 to $100/hr, depending on qualifications of the trainer!)
 
Good morning all! NTL, you are right, it's not a bad price at all... just a lot of money to drop on something I'm trained in myself I guess. But the difference is, he can give me a non-biased opinion so it's all worth it.

This morning went well. I was almost late for my first appointment! :rolleyes: I honestly hit the snooze and went back to bed! LOL! But I did get to my training appointment on time and he worked me good! I'm pretty stoked about it... gives me someone to be liable to so it's going to be really good for me. Now I've really just got to focus on the diet part myself... I know that's 100% me and that's going to be hard to follow BUT it's 5 weeks and the reward of being leaner and tighter in my wedding dress will be SO WORTH IT!!!
 
Paula, that's great! Sometimes just having extra pair of eyes on you makes you work so much harder! It definitely helps, so I think those money will be well-spent. Plus, you're investing in your well-being, so its a good investment! I am sure you'll be looking great!

BTW, the protein powder you've advise me to get really helped with building more muscle! I've lost inches instead of pounds(well, some pounds too :) ) and I'm feeling much stronger, even with the limited exercise I've been doing. Also, taking protein powder in the morning really helped with stabilizing my blood sugar for the whole day! Thanks!
