AHHHHHHHHHHHHH
I have just been informed that the attire for the wedding we are to attend on April 2, 2011 - in Luxembourg... is FORMAL.
The reception is taking place at Chateau de Preisch (France) or in English "Castle of Preisch".
You can see the place for yourself by clicking this link
Chateau of Preisch
OH MY - I do have a beautiful formal dress... but I can not fit into it. I would have to be 30 or more pounds lighter. There is no way I can lose 30 or more lbs in 3 months even if I was majorly strict with myself!
I don't like buying new clothes at my weight either - OH what to do!
Well, if this isn't incentive I don't know what is...

First Day of the next 12 months
Welllllllllllllllllllllllll, I can't say that I have been on track today.
I have been so tired and it took every ounce of energy in my body to go outside and feed my animals. I had a lazy day today although I did work several hours on a Newsletter that I was supposed to have had emailed out yesterday.
I just finished it a half hour ago and hit the send button. Then decided to come on here.
I did track for 2 days in a row - but not today. Tomorrow is another day... the tracker is sitting on my kitchen table glaring at me. Reminding me.
hahaha the chocolates are nearly all gone in the house - I have figured out that a toblerone chunk is 4 points - the icy chocolate squares are 2 points - m&m's for 1/4 cup is 5 points - and Ferrero Rocher! AH! my favorite! for 3 of them it is 6 points.
I think I am going to have withdrawals when I finally tell myself no more or better yet there is no more in the house. You see I won't buy them but if someone else does I will eat them.
This could be TMI... but I had spoken about my hubby not being very supportive. He tries in his own way and for the most part he does mean well... like when he sees me eat a chocolate and tells me that he will have to work it off me later. hehehe. Again not exactly the support I want but it comes from his man heart. LOL
Well, I guess the first step to healthy eating is getting some groceries in this house.
WW used to have menu plans (bare with me here.. I haven't actually read much of the literature to the new plan so... if they have menu plans now...I am unaware).
I used to live off the menu plans. I could swap in and out the foods I liked or what I had on hand. The planning was all done for me and I could easily go shopping - little time spent. I have spent hours talking about and actually starting some menu plans but never complete it and don't follow through. Not a good thing for success.
I had some comments on my last post (end of 2010) - thank you for your support! Please by all means comment. This is what I mean by the "friends" support. I also have a wonderful, fabulous WW meeting leader and the people that go to the meeting are great too. That is my "me" time. I refuse to miss it.
I sometimes wonder who reads this blog...I have so few "followers". If what I say or do helps anyone else I am thankful. I would rather be an inspiration than someone who drags others down. But in saying that, I too have my down days. Sometimes far too many that I care to admit. That was negative again.. gotta quit that.
Well, I do have a goal - I want to have lost weight by March 20th. We have a wedding to attend. I don't want to give some unrealistic number but as long as the scale is going in the down direction and I feel good that is all I will ask of myself.
I have surely rambled on in this post but sometimes I have to do that to get everything straight in my head.
To a clean slate with no mistakes in it....
