Below is Homecoming Queen, Oct. 1984.
I hated this red dress. I don't wear red. Due to finance struggles, I borrowed this dress from a friend. And was very thankful for her generosity. I never told her I despised this dress.
I am no longer a size zero. One thigh is, but not my body. Baha! Ü
Now begins my journey to lose 50 lbs. by...
Save the date...

I would like to buy a rockin' new dress. Ü
I lost some weight, not too long ago. Can't remember exactly, but it was somewhere around 12-14 lbs. in 6 weeks. I was so disappointed, that I gave up. I look back now & realize that weight loss in that amount of time was acceptable.
I have been keeping up with Melissa's weight loss journey. She has lost over 40 lbs. in 4 months! She is amazing. She stopped eating out. She eats healthy. And works out. Two of my most unfavorite things in the world. Teehee. Melissa is delightful (so much like me - baha! :). If you haven't visited her blog, I encourage you to do so. Such a sweet, genuine person.
I shouldn't have to have an event to attend to encourage myself to lose weight. But. My Triglycerides level is too high (not dangerous, but needs to be lowered). My HDL is too low (just a tad). My doctor suggested I make changes, including taking fish oil. After I threw up in my mouth a little, I decided it was time. Without the fish oil, thank you. I definitely can eat much healthier. I don't detest working out, but I have limited time. I will utilize my treadmill, as well as implement vigorous house cleaning. Yes, it burns calories, if done properly. And for that extra push, I will use my reunion date as my goal & not feel guilty about it.
Saturday, Nov. 6th, 2010. I return to the field Friday night, Nov. 5th.
Wish me luck!
