I had a fitting for the bridesmaid’s dress this morning. To my amazement, on top of the 20 pounds I have lost so far, I have also lost 26 inches total. I have lost 4 inches in my waist, and the dress I will need to buy is actually 2 sizes lower than I wore a few short weeks ago. How wonderful is that?!
My friend is excited for me, and she told the seamstress that I am still losing weight, so she wants my last fitting the week before the wedding. That way my dress will be sure to fit when I need to wear it.
I had this funny picture flash through my mind, me walking down the aisle, and my dress beginning to fall off…not my idea of a good time. So of course I agreed to the lateness of my last fitting.
I have changed my Zone diet plan a little. I decided to try some new things, and I actually like everything so far.
Robert said that he would like to lose about 15 pounds, and he asked me to order a meal plan for him. He has been coming to my house for dinner, and we are both enjoying Zone together. I wonder if he really wanted to lose weight, or if he just wants to be with me for longer at night. Either way, I am really enjoying being with him for dinner almost every night.
We decided that we are going to take a trip out to my parents’ house next week. I can hardly wait for them to meet him, and for him to meet them. I have told my mom a lot about him, but since they live a couple of hours away, finding a time to meet has been a challenge.
One thing I didn’t tell my mom was that I am losing weight. I guess it was sort of because if I failed, I didn’t want to hear about it. Maybe I thought that if I didn’t tell them, I might stick to it better, and then it could be a surprise. When I tell them about Zone, I think I’ll bring some information with me. I know they might be concerned that I lose weight in a healthy way, and the information I can give them will help them be relieved that I chose such a great plan.
We’ll have to wait and see how they react; I can only guess they will be extremely happy for me.
Now, to go and figure out what to have for dinner, I already know that Robert wants the Crab Stuffed Sole with Italian Style Broccoli. Maybe I will have the same, or maybe the Sesame Salmon with Japanese Green Beans. Decisions, decisions. Oh well, someone has to make them.
Maybe having dinner by candlelight would be fun, and a dessert of Crustless Peach and Raspberry Pie.
I am really enjoying all these wonderful prepared meals. Dinner with the man of my dreams, and then a walk and a talk. With Zone, every night is a delicious night. Adding Robert to it makes it even better.
