Mission Accomplished

In April (a few weeks before Patrick proposed), I had hit a low - by hitting a new high in weight. It was 6 months after my Achilles surgery, and I had gained somewhere around 15-20 lbs through my recovery. Add that to the weight I had gained little by little over the 6 years after college, and I was not a happy camper.

That's when I started slowly working on losing it again. I set a goal to get back to my college basketball weight: which would mean losing 28 pounds. As of Wednesday, I HIT MY GOAL! The picture is just one I found online, but it's actually how I've been feeling (and I do have pants that look like that now!). I've gone from having to find my one pair of jeans that fit because they were the biggest pair I had - to having to find the one pair of jeans that fit b/c they're the smallest. I've been feeling great and finally seeing the major results I've been working so hard to achieve.

We're up to 30 "yes" RSVP's and down to 93 days. I really feel like I JUST posted the '100 days' post, and it's almost 10 days since then. That's one-tenth of the remaining time. If one of those goes this fast, holy cow the wedding will be here really soon!

Our race is this Saturday. I'm getting nervous because I tweaked my quad at kickball on Tuesday, and the other one has been hurting today. They need to get better - stat. Patrick gets back from training in Ohio late tomorrow night, and he's really looking forward to getting back in town and sleeping in his bed for the first time in more than a week. I'm just looking forward to getting him back in town!
