So when I first joined this site I had bought my wedding dress and I was basically on here to make sure that I could still get into it on the day. Well...turns out they had to alter it on the bust because while I had been keeping the same waistline, somehow my breasts finally hit puberty! But happily I fit into my gorgeous gown and was heralded as the pretty princess I always dreamed of being.
But then we went away for our honeymoon and all bets were off. We ate like pigs and I swear I was 10lb heavier when I came home, but it didn't stop there, you see we still had five boxs of chocolates and more than half of a wedding cake, plus some chocolates that hadn't been claimed (favours) so...we ate that. We still have the top tier of cake, but I had about half of the middle tier all to myself! And, well...we all know what that leads. So now I'm back on here, cake and chocolates all eaten up and ready to start again from scratch. I feel huge and while I enjoyed the sheer indulgence that came with the wedding, I don't like the shape it has made my stomach...namely round...Now I know compared to some on this site, my goals aren't anything major. I only want to loose about 20lb but it's a good 30% of my bodyweight. So in some ways it's a harder goal than a fair few others.
Anyway, my diet doesn't officially start until Monday, so I've set my goal for half a pound a week until then, just so I have a rough guide to keep myself in check, and on Monday the challenge really begins.
But until then, I have downloaded two new apps for my phone, one is a game called healthy heroes that uses actual physical challenges to level up your character, which sounds like so much fun. I started playing today and already I'm level three, which really is pretty cool! The other is just another ab workout thing, but it has a schedual and the excercises get harder as you complete each section. Now I know there's no such thing as spot toning, but really my abbs need the most work, so yeah, I'm going to focus on them. Not entirely, but more than other places.
