First, I got sick to the point of losing my voice. And it lasted two weeks!
Secondly, Keith did something to his back. He took 3 days off work last week & still can't even manage to put his own socks on.
I'm in a funk with school - and this whole wacked out sleeping schedule I'm currently enjoying (umm...not) doesn't really add to the situation.
I haven't lost anything significant since hitting 100 pounds lost over a month ago. I'm getting frustrated and impatient. Although I will fully admit I've been letting carbs sneak back into my food choices. I've noticed something odd: When I eat carbs, I find I crave food; specifically, more carbs (naan bread & hummus is particularly delicious). Compare that to being able to have a take-it-or-leave-it attitude towards food when carbs aren't a food choice (still not "normal person hungry"). Time to wean off the carbs. Sigh. FML.
As far as the wedding goes, we've made progress on bridesmaids dresses and met with our baker, whom Keith really likes.
Bridesmaids dresses: I found them off Etsy, of all places! My requirements for bridesmaids dresses are pretty simple: Cheaper the better, knee-length and the same shade.
(Aside: although 2 of my girls are BEYOND amazing and told me they'd be okay with shelling out up to 300$ for a dress, my sister can't pay for her own, which means I'm going to have to. And I know I can't afford that much. So, yes. Cheaper = better.)
Anyway, without further ado:
Isn't it gorgeous??! My girls can wrap/wear it any way they feel most comfortable on the day, I really don't care. I ordered the 'silver' (pictured) and 'steel' fabric samples to compare. I'll get everybodys opinions on the 19th when Peggy comes down for a visit. YAY!
As for the cake, I think I'll do a separate post on that because this post is getting super long. And no, it won't be a month later. Swearsies.

beautiful!
I can't wait to hear about the cake.
I am doing the same kind of thing- as few carbs as possible (The Howard Diet) and I found the EXACT same thing. I am in the process of weaning off again, and the first 3ish days are horrible/full of cravings, but then it gets better. I have no idea why it happens that if i Eat carbs, I am a crazy out of control nut to get more, but if I dont, I dont miss them that much. Maybe my body is literally addicted? Dont give up hope, you can do it! You will feel awesome on your wedding day with all you have achieved!
