Dress Fitting and Honeymoon Booked!

Yesterday I went in for my dress fitting. Exactly as planned, there was no need for any alterations or hemming! I fit perfectly into the dress and I can breathe while I wear it. All I needed was a bustle and I was out of there! I felt really really good in my dress! I felt beautiful and tall and I have to admit that I admired my self for a while in the three-sided mirror. It feels so nice to finally feel good about my appearance.
At my final measure-in last Friday I found out that in 5 months of working out and dieting, I lost a total of 20.75 inches from my biceps, thighs, waist, hips, and bust, and 18 pounds on the scale. Looking in the mirror, I definitely see a woman I can be proud of. Though I didn't reach my goal of 30lbs- lost by wedding time, I am really excited about the progress I have made. I was thinking about trying to lose the last 12 pounds before the wedding - or as much of it as I can - but after my dress fitting that doesn't seem like a good idea. After the wedding, however, you can bet your ass I will continue in my weight-loss endeavors.

So I bought some weights and I will be doing Tae Bo and arm exercises to keep toning and maintaining.

Last week we booked our HONEYMOON TO LAS VEGAS!! We had looked into going to Cancun or Kauai, but when it comes down to it, Vegas is a lot of fun for not that much money. Plus we didn't want to waste any more time than we had to on a plane. So we are staying at Aria Resort and Casino which is Vegas' newest hotel. I must admit that I never imagined my honeymoon would be in Vegas of all places. But it is actually the perfect place for us to go. We only have 3 days, so the distance is perfect. We can go see a show like Cirque du Soleil. We can hang by the pool, go to the spa, eat at great restaurants, and hang out in an amazing hotel room! Plus, free drinks while we squander away our nickles at the slots. :)

So many things to be excited about! And the wedding is only 24 days away!!
