~Missy in June~

[Missy]

I will have to put my monthly weight tracker in here tomorrow since that is when I am weighing in. I have had 2 brutal sessions with Dennis this week...Monday was especially hard because he was in a terrible mood for some reason. Something must have pissed him off that day because I felt like I got the brunt of his mood.

Matt & I are going to see him wrestle again tomorrow night. Dennis told us to come find him after the show because we might all go out to eat or hang out or something. We had a blast the last time we went to watch him...this time should be fun too.

I have a meeting with a lady on Wednesday after work to go over what I want for flowers at our wedding. Oh, and we did book the limo!! We were very happy with it! In the next couple of weeks we will be going out to see a lady's album of cakes and see if we can find one we like. I think we pretty much have everyone booked for the things we can't do ourselves...except I still need to find someone to do hair & makeup...but those are the only things I can think of where I need to book someone in advance.

This Sunday..my parents and Matt's parents are all coming down to our place and we're all going out for dinner. Going to discuss things about the wedding and just have a little get together with everyone.

Next weekend we might be getting some engagement photos done for the papers.

Weighed in at 160 this morning...hoping next week I'll be seeing the 150's!!

Hey Missy -- got a Wii Fit yesterday -- so far, it's a blast. The kids are playing the heck out of it, as usually with any new game. But it really makes them want to do their best and break their records. So you just want to keep playing....
We all worked up a sweat, doing the aerobic and strength parts. And the balance games are a lot of fun.
Of course, anything new is fun. The real test will be if we keep using it consistently.

[Missy]

Glad to hear you are enjoying the new game, I might consider getting it for ourselves now

Matt & I went to see my trainer wrestle again last night...it was incredible and so much fun. We waited for Dennis after the show (he told me to come see him) and then we went out to eat with about 15 wrestlers lol..those guys are so much fun, we had a blast. Dennis told me to order whatever I wanted and to enjoy it...so Matt & I shared an order of nachos. Then Dennis told me I would just die on Monday's session lmao...anyways, Jen (Dennis' finace) ordered some apple crumble pie thing for dessert and Dennis told me I was sharing it with her! I'm like "I am?" haha....but it was sooooooooooooo good.

Today should be interesting...Matt's parents and my parents are all coming here today to go over wedding stuff and then we're going to dinner. I have my work cut out for me in the gym this week.

I'll leave off with a pic from last night's show...of my torture trainer

Hopped on the scale this morning and I am down yet another pound. And guess what?!?! I saw a 5!!! I am now in the 150's!!! I can't even remember the last time I saw something close to this on the scale. Needless to say I am incredibly happy right now. Those torture session are paying off.

I went to the Michael's craft store the other night and picked up some silk flowers that were on for 60% off...I bought some baby's breath, a bunch of red & white roses, and a red bouquet to use for the maid of honour and my flower girl. My bouquet will also have cala lilles in it. I went and talked the flowers over with our florist this past Wednesday and she said she could make them in probably a day..lol.

Matt & I are going to try and get some engagement photos taken today (if it doesn't rain...looks kind of iffy). We are going to a park that has a lot of gorgeous flowers & trees and waterfalls. We have to put our announcement in the paper the end of August probably. We're going to be staying at my parents place overnight and I'm hoping we have a campfire tonight.

Then tomorrow we'll be celebrating Father's Day. I'm hoping it's a nice day so we can be outside and maybe bbq or something.

Congrats on hitting the 150's!
I know when I will feel like I've achieved what I want -- when I get on a balance type scale, and I can leave the big weight at 100 pounds. I still remember clearly when I first had to move it to 150 -- a dark day, even though I was pregnant. I guess I knew it wouldn't ever go back, at least not without a ton of work from me. It's funny how these things stick in your mind, and also funny the ways we measure success. Anyway -- great job!
You're going to save a TON of money making your own flowers. I don't know what you're doing for a photographer, but they are ridiculously expensive too.

I actually have a really good friend of mine who is doing all the photography for me for free...she's done a lot of weddings and I've seen her work...amazing photos. I'm so glad she offered it to us as a wedding gift actually.

I haven't been on here a whole lot, but I decided to post today because it's weigh in day for me. I'm down 2 pounds this week...157! I don't know how I managed to do that. Earlier this week Dennis had asked me how my weight loss was going and then said we were going to aim for 2 pounds a week....and here I am 2 pounds lighter this week. How does he do that?! lol....I had a brutal session with him last night. My upper body was still sore from Monday's workout (that's how much of a hard a$% he is)....so I did about 40 minutes of all legs last night (doing legs with him is torture) and then 20 minutes of lower back and abs. OW!

I have a lot going on this weekend as usual. With working, it's really the only time we can get anything done for the wedding. Today we are going to meet someone who does wedding cakes and I'm really hoping we find something we like.

Tomorrow we're going to my parents place for the day. My mom & sister are throwing us a co-ed wedding shower. We started doing the co-ed ones in our family a long time ago...makes it really fun for games. I'm really excited about it. My mom & sister have some games planned, there's going to be a lot of food and a bar set up. Then Matt & I will open the gifts....I'm getting so excited for our wedding! It's only 4 months away now!!

Not sure if anyone will see this...but does anyone know of any online stores to buy a cheap bathing suit that has an underwire?
