Diet Days…. :-/

SO… I got my wedding dress!!!! If you know my dress horror story, you know that I am very happy about finally having this. My mom and I went shopping on Saturday and we found the perfect dress! So relieved.

In the midst of trying on dresses, and finding the dress, I decided I’m going to be really serious about eating healthy and exercising until the wedding.

So here is my plan:

I found a diet that is one of those low/no carb diets and decided it was a go for me. I bought the food tonight to go with it. The plan is to choose one from each of these 3 categories and then that is your meal:

Proteins:
Egg whites with one whole egg for flavor
Chicken breast or thigh
Grass-fed organic beef
Pork

Legumes:
Lentils
Black beans
Pinto beans

Vegetables:
Spinach
Asparagus
Peas
Mixed vegetables

Tonight I had my first meal from this diet:

 

It was really yummy! And I have lunch for tomorrow. Not a bad idea!

I plan on incorporating some running back into my daily routine. I’m SURE that if I stick with this, I can lose 5 or 10 pounds, which is all I want to lose.

Salud!

Engagement Photos!

So I’m really excited because today I got a sneak peek of our engagement photos!! I absolutely love Nicole’s work, and can’t wait to see the rest when they come in the mail. Here’s the eye candy…. :-)

Lots of complaining

This has not been my best week. I went to the doctor this morning after 4 long days of rollercoaster sickness- fevers, headaches, sore throat, sneezing, achy body. I thought I had the flu at first, and while I am thankful I do not, I’m beginning to wonder when this thing will go away.

 

I don’t have cable so I don’t have anything to watch. I just picked up “Anna Karenina” this week right before I got sick, and now I can’t read it because of the pounding in my head. So what have I been doing? Sleeping. Shouldn’t I be better? :( I had to take off of work on Wednesday and again today.

If you can, please say a prayer for me! My head feels like it will explode and my throat feels like it’s on fire. Laryngitis is icky.

Happy New YEAR!

So, what better way to start off the new year than with a brand new laptop? After a long night of multiple computer deaths in late 2009, I decided to start 2010 off with a bang by getting a new computer :-) I love it!

It is my dream to have a Mac (one day… one day!), but now I may not have to; I got a Dell with Windows 7 on it, and it is so similar to a Mac that I am quite content. Thank you Bill Gates for emulating perfection ;)

Will post more later!
