XL

Hey everyone!! So sorry I didn't get the chance to post on Friday and this weekend was madness!! Well I stepped on the scale on Friday and guess what I saw....217!!!! Wow you would think that wouldn't thrill me but I have not been back at 217lbs since like October I think lol. I am so thrilled and am sooooooo motivated because of it! Seeing that just makes me want to try harder and I really have been because of it!!! Honestly...I think I might even be a little lower but my Aunt who visits once per month is in town and she always adds anywhere from 3-5lbs on me so I can't wait till she leaves and see if that makes me drop every more!!

Ooooo lets talk bathing suits since I'm heading to Florida next month...I was thinking of investing in one of those miracle suits....but they are pricey, has anyone ever bought one, I'd love some reviews??? Oh and while we are on clothes.....I went to costco last weekend and saw this really cute shirt but didn't even think to buy it because their stuff has NEVER fit me....I wouldn't even try to XL because I was certain it was too small......well my mom convinced me to try it and guess what people............ IT FIT! Holy crap, seriously it fit. My first XL in I don't know how long......are you kidding?? An XL!!! I'm excited if you can't already tell hahahaha.

Oh and it's like 50 degrees in New England today!!! That is really warm for all your southern bells out there lol. The nice weather lifts my spirits so much.....I can't wait to work out when its nice outside!! Skinny here I come....again lol!!!

So I have finally gotten my butt back in gear!! I am going to weigh in this coming Friday and I am expecting to see a drop! So check to see!! My Florida trip is getting closer and that is just motivating me more and more! Speaking of Florida....I need to start looking for a new bathing suit because my old one is too big now! That is such a nice thing to say lol.




Okay so I came up with a fabulous recipe that I wanted to share with you all! Now, before you say anything it is a soup and I know soups aren't the most band smart thing to eat seeing they probably don't last in the pouch for as long as some other foods....BUT sometimes you need a "safe" food....I know I do especially when I am at work. Even my husband LOVES it....so that is saying alot lol.
