Another "one" bites the dust!

1.4 of 2.4 GONE!

Monday, May 11, 2009
2.4 BIG steps in the wrong direction...and a bunch of uphill steps in the right direction!

It will come as a shock to most that I took Tinkerbell with me. Everyone who knows me knows that I can't stand that mutt, but I took her along as snake bait. I figured a rattler would rather go after a small, stupid, ugly dog than a chubby old lady. Lucky for Tink we didn't have to find out. I did have a pee your pants moment when this dumb lady walking two killing machines, a Doberman and a German Shepherd that were the size of medium sized horses, came around the other side of the hill. Her monstrous dogs were not on leashes and Tink is so seriously stupid that she will go after any dog of any size. Although Tink was on a leash, it took her half a second to squirm out of it and run up to the beasts. Thankfully the other dogs were a lot calmer than they appeared and they spared Tink's worthless little life.
The funny thing is that when I was walking Tink out to the car as we were leaving for the hill she had a look of complete fear on her face. I NEVER take that dog anywhere so I'm sure she thought she was headed to the sausage factory. Now that we're home, and she doesn't realize that she was serving the purpose of snake bait, she thinks I'm her best friend because I took her for a walk. She is following me everywhere. This is not going to work out for me. I have to find a way to take her but still convey that I can't stand her. I'll work on it.
So, I have to motivate myself to continue to hit the hill. I've come up with a hideous plan. If I don't walk up and down that blasted hill at least 20 times this week I'm going to post my weight on my Facebook. And trust me, people, that is NEVER going to happen. I will crawl up and down that monster if I have to, but I will not be posting those three ugly numbers on my Facebook. This should do the trick.
One last thing, I'm not doing this for anyone or anything but myself. This is totally and completely selfish! I am not doing this because we have a wedding coming up. I am not doing this because it's time to squeeze into a bathing suit. I am doing this for me. So I can feel better, mentally as much as physically. Purely selfish! I have got to continue to make these changes, and I will!

Dress for the wedding...check!
I just realized I forgot to post on Wednesday when I FORCED myself to weigh in. I was really worried that I would be up, but in fact I was down .6 of a pound. It's not a great loss, but it's a lot better than a gain! That makes my total 19.4. I had a goal to hit the 20 pound mark a long time ago and I'm just poking along. But I'm glad to be headed in the right direction.
I have set a serious goal to start exercising. I really need to make the time to do it. I will do it three times this coming week. That's my goal and I'm stickin' to it.
I bought a dress for the wedding last night. It's an anti-mother-of-the-bride dress. It's chocolate brown and really cute. It looks nothing like a mother of the bride dress and that's exactly what I wanted. Shelby said it was really cute and looks like something she or Jessica would wear. It's not a young style, but it is cute. It fits but will look even better if I lose another 15 pounds before the big day...and that's exactly what I plan to do! : )
My mother-of-the bride dress DOES NOT look like this... : )
