Hi-my wedding is on 9/29 and I have been looking for a cute but comfortable wedding shoe, if there is such a thing :) I want a low heel, ivory, dressy shoe that goes with my dress. I am considering eggplant shoes, as that is the color of my bridesmaids dresses...or like a burnt orange...I donno, I am all over the place.…

The dress was this BIG ball gown, it was tinted baby blue, and had this HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE red velvety bow tied around my…

Yep, it's that time...
You know it's time to wrap up your workout @ the gym, when................................ --> you start wiping down a machine that you didn't use! :embarassed: (especially if it's a weight machine you didn't touch!)

NSV @ work...
I was in the kitchen area @ work, and my "work mother" (like a 2nd mom to me, that I happen to work with) started talking to another co-worker, telling her how she was in the parking lot this morning and something weird happened. She was in her car, about to get out, and saw this girl walking towards our building, and…

veggies for breakfast?
So, I have been meaning to make changes to what I eat for a long time now...more so than I already have since I joined MFP. I've been wanting to try new things.

NSV-my jogging breakthrough...
My co-worker and I usually do this route around our work complex...we haven't measured the distance yet, but it usually takes us about 40 minutes to walk it at a moderate pace... My co-worker has been on vacation this week and last week, so I decided to push myself a little bit more, and incorporate little pieces of…

No joke! True story!! :D Not only am I celebrating my birthday today, but I am celebrating hitting the 40 # mark!! Wahoo! almost halfway there!!

the first NSV I felt greaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat about!
About 1 1/2 years ago, I bought a bike ($99 special @ Walmart-don't laugh, I'm cheap! :happy: ) and me and my fiance (boyfriend at the time) started riding the Rail Trail by his house...
