Hope you had a good time at your party - I know what you mean about carbs making you feel bloated.. I am thinking of going "off plan" about three days before my wedding (not too bad, but a little)... and I hope I don't gain a lot of weight in that time lol!

So today was cool, I got out of the 180's, I couldn't believe it!! 179.5.. it's weird but a part of me doesn't feel like it's "real" - I feel like it's goign to pop back up any day now so I don't get too excited... but I know it must be real because my inches are shrinking too - in fact I wore my pair of size 14's out today and they didn't bother me! my belly bulges a little more then I would like when I wear them, but I can breathe and sit and all that fun stuff in them lol..

And I went and tried on dresses.. I was worried I'd feel huge and freakish, so I psyched myself up before i went.. I took a nice bath and used all the nice perfumy llotions and scrubs and tried to make myself feel as good about myself as possible before going there.. I still had to try on the plus sizes (14W - the smallest in the plus sizes though!), but I actually felt really pretty trying them on!! There were two I really liked, one I like the best though.. I thought I was going to go the way of Halter tops, but the one I like the best is actually strapless can you believe it!!!

I didn't look too bad in it, though my arms are still big ham arms lol.. but I have three months and any weight I lose will just be bonus because I always told myself "if i could just get under 180 before my wedding I will be happy"

I really did feel beautiful in this dress, I didn't want to take it off!! I think it will be the one I end up getting.

Anyway so that was fun actually!!

I didn't exercise today though with all the other excitement going on today, so I hope I am still in the 170's tomorrow. I can't believe it.. I'm in the 170's... wow....

Hope you're all having a great day!!

Are we going to continue this challenge in february? Not sure if we're still in "winter" or not. should we rename it and start a new challenge? what would you all like to do?

Re: ~~Winter ONEderland Challenge(Jan.)~~~

Im in--- I will make a new thread as usual! I am sooo proud of you mary! You have done fab! By far passed me up! Well, after feeling bloated I weighed in at 201.6 yikes... but I am back on induction and being pretty strict with it. The only fudge I have made is a glass of wine. I usually fudge on that part and it doesn't effect me too much. I usually still lose so we will see! It must feel great to be at 179!!!!!! Gosh---- I am jealous! I have also been giong to the gym so part of that may have been water from my muscles retaining.... well... I have been super duper busy but I will try my best to post in daily in the new thread...

Chrissy- how are you doin girl? check in soon!
