Losing weight and feeling GREAT!

Ok so , I have some weight loss news ....lol ... yesterday I decided to try on my wedding dress from a little over a year ago (was thinking about doing a TTD photo session and wanted to see if it would fit )http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trash_the_dress well lo and behold it was TOO BIG !! YAY ME! ... then I went a little psycho and starting trying on all the dresses in my closet. First the dress I wore on New year's last year and once again too big ! then moved on to two of my prom dresses from high school ( 6 1/2 years ago) and they fit !!! .. .that being said they were snug but were comfortable enough to wear (if I so felt inclined haha) What a big confidence booster! ...those of you losing weight and trying to keep a positive attitude , set aside a party dress that you'd love to wear .. this it what gave me the motivation to loss weight last year while I was getting ready for our wedding ( the pretty expensive dress was 2 sizes too small when I bought it , how's that for motivation!)

It's that time of year again, going it on my own....

It's that time of year again! School's in and we're back to preparing to see Josh back out west again(we're hoping this is the last time) , this tends to be the point in the year where I feel the most guilt for not working. Yes, I attend school and take care of our children but there's still a part of me that feels guilty for not at least helping a bit in bringing in some money to support us. I think this is probably one of the biggest reasons I went back to school because I couldn't stand to see Josh stressed and deprived when theres an inevitable shortage of work. I cannot wait till march when i'm done and can go out looking for work and have some steady income for our family until then we're scrapping and counting our pennies while josh works on the other side of the country. March can't come soon Enough !
