Bridal bootcamp

The wedding is only about 6 weeks away. I seem to be stuck at 173.5 pounds and have been for quite a while. I'd love to be around 165 or lower for the wedding.

wedding dresses

I have been shopping for a dress appropriate for the wedding. I don't want the traditional white gown, since it is a second marraige for both of us, and I am, after all, 58 years old.

Engaged!

The MGB results in weight loss. That's a given. What may be harder to understand is how it helps so much with self esteem. I walk taller, smile more easily, feel better meeting new people.

Livin' on love

I haven't posted for a while. My weight loss had stalled, so not much to say. That is now changing. I met a wonderful man just over a week ago.

Merry Christmas!!

Christmas plans

Merry Christmas! In the past, Christmas consisted of baking, eating, parties where the food selection was important, dinners where I scoped out dessert first. It was all about food.

Weight Watchers

Yesterday I joined Weight Watchers. I know, I know...you thought the idea of having the MGB meant I'd just have the weight fall off, and I could eat anything I wanted and be skinny. No, it is a tool.

MGB advocate

Tonight was the Mortgage Bankers holiday party. Once again, there were the predicted responses as people realized who I was. It's funny to watch their faces as I approach.
