June 2012 Weddings

Any confessions?

Anyone else need to get something off their chest? Today will be the 4th day in a row that I've had a Sloppy Tom sloppy joe but with turkey instead of beef. I know thats pathetic but I made a whole pound of it even though it was just for me. I've been putting srirachi sauce on them. Delicious.

Re: Any confessions?

  • I haven't worked out since last Thursday. Need to get my butt in gear.

  • I skipped my Insanity workout on Sunday. I asked FI if I could skip it.... he normally grounds me and asks me questions like "how will you feel about that decision tomorrow".... but this time he said "yes skip it, you have been sick and run down, I think a break is what you need"... so I did.

  • I have checked my registry at least once every day. It's how I remember how many days there are until the wedding too.

    FI and I actually think about and practice what our "you may now kiss the bride" kiss is going to be. I'm far more concerned about the details of it than I should be.

    I don't care about a lot of little details (like how the RBs and FGs walk down the aisle) and some people are really getting to me by saying "It's your wedding! You should care!".
  • i keep telling myself i'm going to eat better, work out more for the past week since i've kinda got bored with it. Still not doing as good as i would like and my first dress fitting is this saturday  : /

  • I haven't been working out either. I need to but FI isn't here and I don't like going to the gym alone. 
  • I make cakes for birthdays at the office and I went a little overboard this time.  I made a chocolate cake layered with a chocolate cheesecake in the middle with tons of chocolate frosting.  All I think about is how I want to eat the whole thing!  I know I'm not going to make it through the day without having a piece.  There goes my diet for the day :(

  • I'm worried about my weight. It's soooo hard not to snack, and FI and I try to keep our shopping trips cheap so I usually end up having the same thing every day for lunch right now it's oatmeal. I get tired of it and am tempted to go buy something usually unhealthy. When I do, I feel bad, because FI's trying to get me to cut down on unnecessary spending. I've been keeping my weight pretty steady but I recently gained a couple pounds and I'm worried about that continuing. I'm also worried about my wrist. I have a bump on the back of it and doing certain things hurts I can't prop myself up with that hand. I have a doctor appointment on the 9th, but I'm worried it'll be something that needs surgery and I don't want a scar on my wrist for the wedding :

    it's ok to have cake, as long as you don't go over board and stay on plan the rest of the day

  • I am sitting at work supposed to be in my collaborating classrooms, but instead I am taking an "office day" and working on paperwork. But it is REALLY hard to be motivated and get to work. We'll see how the afternoon goes....

    Also, I am  working on my letter of resignation at the moment, because I will be leaving my job to start school this fall!! :D

  • I had so many anixiety dreams last night that on my walk to work I was plotting my afternoon treat. Screw the diet, I'm having a giant cookie after lunch.

    I've been good about working out faithfully but it's so frustrating not losing a single pound. So frack it all, I'm eating baked goods.

  • I'm so frustrated that I can't work out because I tore my achillese tendon. I know there are some upper body things I can do and stuff, but I just don't have the motivation.

  • I check my registries at least 4 times a day; and now that things are actually being bought that will increase. I really hope someone buys the luggage (though its not on sale at Macys now and seems to be an insane price!) otherwise I'm going to have to buy it myself for the honeymoon. It also annoys me that Macys doesn't have sales right now and I look like a spoiled selfish brat because their "full price" items are so high; but I swear its usually 30% off.

    I'm going to get my mom a nicer hankie than FIs because my mom is wonderful and FIs mom can go kick rocks.

    I haven't gone to church in a while and I feel so guilty. I still pray daily (and not just, Dear God, let someone get that luggage) but I haven't made time to get to mass. I wish FI would be more on top of getting us there, but he's so much happier to sleep in on Sundays.

  • I had a bacon cheeseburger on the weekend.  It was delicious.  I also ate a whole box of craft dinner before class last week because we had nothing else in the house and it was so good, I couldn't sto;p eating.  I am now paying for it by eating overly healthy (and that is boring).  I have also been really slack at exercising.....had a bikini on the other day when FI and I went swimming, and it wasn't so pretty.....gotta lose the muffin tops and work on the cellulite before I go to Maui.

    Also, I have been looking for a new job while at work.  It's that bad.  There is too much drama here and I know I shouldn't be thinking about ditching them right at the start of busy season when they have no time to hire someone new, but I am at my wits end.  I don't think there are words to describe how much I don't want to come to work anymore.  I'd also feel bad leaving because I know my boss is planning a shower for me and how rude would it be to ditch out on that!!  Finally, I am torn between leaving now (when it won't look as bad because busy season hasn't officially started yet) and  leaving after June (after the wedding, after bonuses go out, and right smack dab in the middle of busy season).  And I DEFINITELY can't stick it out until September when busy season is over.  Ahhhhhh!!!!!  I just want out!!!!!

    PS:  Midge, I think that is so cute that you guys practice your "you may now kiss the bride" kiss!!!!  If I tried that, FI would think I'd lost my mind! :(

  • Saturday was one of the worst eating days I've had in a long time.  I had a good breakfast (mushroom omelet) but then had two travel mugs of coffee and half a chocolate shake (we got them after flower-girl dress shopping because she was good).  Then we proceeded to go to this awesome Mexican place with his mother & sister where I had a fantastic margarita.  

    I was so dehydrated and just felt like crappppp after.  Now I'm back on my being-healthy plan though!

  • I hate how my arms look, yet have no motivation to get working on them.  You would think our uncoming wedding would kick me into gear, but nope :'(  I seriously need to start lifting weights and toning!!!!

  • @Diamond. I check mine a lot too and it makes me sad when nothing new is missing lol. I'm most worried about our china. I'm not sure we're gonna get it all :/ I've already decided if we don't get it all, we'll buy the rest so we don't have an incomplete set then the pattern gets discontinued

    I don't like my arms either.  They are probably my least favorite part of my body.

    Haha thanks. I think of The Wedding Singer every time we talk about it. I just want that to be perfect and I also like saying "You may now kiss the bride".

    FI is in the same boat with his current job. He's even been taking phone interviews at work (obviously he goes outside/into his car).
  • Confessions
    I'm the biggest I've ever been in my life. And though its not huge its big to me. I blame it on my FI in some ways because he likes to eat out all the time (for convenience and I tend to cook healthy and he's not a huge fan of vegetables). We did go to the gym for the first time (for me in 9 mos and for him in a year). We also grocery shopped last night for healthy foods and I threw out his cookies and chips- with his permission of course lol.

    I enjoy spending more time with my FI's family because they talk about the wedding more and make me feel super special for marrying their son.

    I hate being broke during this planning process. I feel like I come to work looking like I need to be adopted. Definitely looking forward to a new wardrobe this summer (more motivation to lose weight!)

    Could it be a "bible bump"?  I had a ganglion cyst on the top side of my wrist when I was in my late teens.  You have the option of draining them, but they usually just come back.  I eventually had to have surgery to have mine removed.


    MY confession:  FH and I are on a "drying out" spell (not drinking for a while to help lose weight and save money) but we slipped up last night when we were at a friends for dinner.  I only had two drinks, white sangria, but I still feel guilty.

    <div>Dumb FIs! When FI and I first started dating, I definitely weighed 8 lbs. less than I do right now. I better be even smaller than that by the wedding or I'll be annoyed!!</div><div>

  • Ikr?! And now that we're deciding to eat right and work out I'm sure he'll lose weight faster!
