Finally lifting weights again! Thank you Jules for posting the link to TNation! I am finally excited to lift after the past 2 weeks of blowing it off. I actually made my hamstrings HURT! I can't tell you the last time I felt the wonderous pain in my hamstrings.

Cardio has been good since July 5 and it has paid off. I actually got the scale to drop to 158 (if only for a day). I'm hovering nicely at 159.5. I'm hoping to hit it hard for the next 9 days before our camping trip. I'm doing the best planning that Rob will allow for that trip. I plan to pack healthy protein bars, a lot of water and some frozen meats that we can cook on the grill (chicken, turkey burgers etc.) We currently disagree on the breakfast options. I found a cute camping tip that said to put your eggs and veggies in a bag and put the bag in boiling water. Sounds like a good idea to me! Rob said no, it tastes like plastic. WHATEVER! Add some hot sauce shut up and eat. We need lots of protein and energy for all the hiking and exploring we plan. Not to mention I turn in to quite the bitch when I'm not fed!

Found two dresses I'm considering for the Aug 26th wedding. Had to order online and one will most likely need altered but I can use them both for the cruise in September. Totally excited!
