You haven't heard from me in a while

i haven't posted in a few weeks and alot has happened since I did. For starters, Marc and I got engaged which is very exciting and because of that I have started on a diet much like he did (Only not as insane). When we came back from the trip away for my birthday I weighed 164 lbs. Alot of that was water and pooh from eating like a pig all weekend so maybe and actual weight was more around 160 but I am counting the 164 lbs. as a starting point.

This morning, after daily ablutions, I was 153.5. I get a cheat meal when I dip below 150 so I am hoping that by next weekend I can have mexican and chocolate cake. Each saturday I get a high carb day, though and that is fun.

My plan is to get to 140 lbs. for the wedding in February so I certainly don't have far to go. (However, there is always that scary possibility that the dress I pick won't look good unless I am skinnier - bye bye strength for a while)

More later....
