Get off your Broom update and Tying-the-knot Tuesday...again.
I did not intend to keep combining these two topics, but apparently that is how it is working again this week. Next week I will try to separate these out because they really aren't very related, but for now it will work.
Get off your Broom.
This was a particularly hard week for me. I did well with work-outs Monday thru Thursday, but then I had Friday off, so I did not take the time to work out. I did a lot of cleaning though, and more cleaning, and more cleaning. And then on Saturday I had two separate Halloween parties at my house. The first was a witches tea for the ladies of our families. I had a really good turn out, and lots of amazing foods, which is where things got dangerous. After a couple of hours of tea and snacking the ladies left and we began to reconfigure the house for our adult party. Also a great turn out, but even more food, and worse snack foods. Couple this with alcohol and coming down from the stress of getting the house together and I went down hill badly, sigh. I also got a stress caused canker sore. *shakes head* So this week I am trying to get back on track. I have another huge Halloween party this weekend, but I am going to try to keep myself moderated a little better.
On a good note I looked incredible in my costume. I did something a little short and very fitted for the first time in many years and I totally rocked it. Stay tuned for photos from the parties over the next couple of weeks.
Weight: 208 - 3 pound gain...ouch
Bust: 44 - yep that's an inch loss.
Waist: 39
Hips: 43
Week three challenge questions: Why do we have a sudden craving for something sweet or salty that just seems to come out of the middle of nowhere? Should we give in to these cravings or suffer through them?
I have no idea where cravings come from really, though generally if I am having a severe craving for something it is because my body is lacking something and is telling me I need it. Whether I give in to the cravings depends on what it is I am craving and where I am and what time it is. If it is 11 pm I will not give in no matter what. But if I am craving chocolate I have a little chocolate.
Tying-the-knot Tuesday
With Halloween we are not working much on the wedding right now. Starting in November I am going to start on my bouquet and such. :) We are also trying to finalize the catering decision and get the deposit down for that.
