Something To Shoot For

I have (finally) reached the time in my life where everybody I know is already married, so I haven't been to a wedding in ages!  Well, we got invited to a wedding this summer!  And it's my favourite kind of wedding - I won't know ANYONE there!!  It's a dude that hubs plays poker with and used to work with.  Never met him OR his betrothed.  This is going to be good!  We have a room at the King Edward hotel downtown Toronto, the kids are sleeping at my mum's (yeah, you might be thinking I'm going to get lucky...I'm really more excited about the open bar).  So now, in addition to the Bathing Suit Challenge, I have something to shoot for...a new dress in a MUCH smaller size.  I have almost 3 months.  I wonder if I can do 30 more pounds in that time.  I think I CAN!

  1. Gilly, I have absolutely no doubt in my mind that you can achieve that goal. You seem to have hit your stride and seem so motivated. Just keep doing what your doing and you'll be there before you know it.
    Stop on by my blog if you get a chance...cast your vote for one of Drazil's potential band names for my band...surgery is tomorrow.

  8. You can! I can't wait to see the dress options. And I am jealous, I am way past the wedding-going age, it seems. ;(

  10. Oh yeah, you can definitely do it! Planning for future events has kept me focused during this entire process. It's a great way to stay positive, and feel so good. I haven't always met my exact goals, but close enough to be really happy. I'm excited for you!

  13. FUN! Just came back from a wedding this weekend, after a lonnnggg time with none. It was a great break for us as parents and great to have some couple time again. It was actually fun to find a dress and pick out clothes. You will certainly be several sizes down three months from now! Keep up your good work!

  14. OF course you can! BIL is getting married in Oct, and my entire family except me is in the wedding. DH is best man, DD is flower girl, and DS is ringbearer. I WILL be 100 lbs down by then. Let's rock this thing!
