Engaged! And losing again..

It's been so long since I've updated, which seems to be all I've written about for the last year. Sorry self and anyone who liked reading :(

But in happy news, I am engaged!! To the most awesome man :)

We're getting married the end of May 2014, so of course I am (back) on my mission to lose the final 20-30lbs I need to lose. I was on a roll there for awhile, and dropped about 70 in less than a year, and then for the last two years, I kind of just stayed around 170-180.

I can't even believe it's been more than 2 years since I was single, and just focusing all on myself and losing weight. And then I moved here to NC and things just kind of came together.

But there is nothing like a big white sleeveless dress to bring back the motivation to lose weight and look good! So I am back at it. I've been doing Weight Watchers (just on my own, writing down what I eat and counting points) and working out on the elliptical (so far, just 30 mins a day).

It's going slow, but it is going. And this time I really don't see myself stopping until I do lose the weight I want to because of the wedding. I shouldn't need a big event to do it, but man that's a good reason. Those pictures will last a lifetime, so I can't stop.

Thanks for the comments even tho I've been MIA and please leave me more. I hope to post more and to have this blog - and you guys - keep me accountable like it did when I was going strong.
