Wednesday, May 21

I weighed myself this morning and I was back down four pounds, weird.

There are 52 days until July 12th when Chris wants us to take our dresses in for alterations. That's 7 1/2 weeks. She gave me a goal to lose 20 pounds by that date. I will really have to stay focused!

We will have 7 family birthdays (including mine!), one graduation, an end of the year BBQ, Father's Day and the bridal shower in the meantime. If you're anything like our family, you plan celebrations around food. It's what we've always done.

I need to learn to be in the occasion and not let the food be so important. This is something God will have to do in me. What a relief to know that He can!
