Ahhhh dreaded wedding day preparation!  This includes weight loss, buying all of the right props, signs, programs, flowers, decorations, accessories, hair, make-up and the list goes on. It seems to add up very very quickly.  The main thing for me is the weight loss deal.   I go back and fourth on this…

On one hand, I know I will be photographed a lot and of course you want to be in great shape for them.  On the other, I am who I am and that’s all there is to it.  I am doing my best to eat healthier in general of course, primarily for my diabetes.  Eating more veggies, lean proteins, soups, are all very important to me.  Of course, doing my best to steer away from the sweets, carbs etc.  I think I will also stop drinking anything alcoholic as well.  Might as well, right?  

Anyway, I find that all of the little things are starting to add up more and more.  After wedding dress, bridal shower dress, shoes, hair pins, bracelets, necklaces, earrings etc.  GEEZ!!  

Keeping my portions small, working out four times a week, and stretching as much as I can.   I suppose I can only do so much.  Sometimes it’s discouraging.. and sometimes I don’t care enough to take it a step towards extreme.  It depends on the day….

Lastly, I apologize for not getting more recipes out.  I haven’t been cooking as much since I’ve been eating so much less, and more simply.  I’ll get some out there soon… 

 

Stay tuned.
