Day 19 (Jun 22)

Yeah, I know, skipped a few days there, didn't I? I'm over it. There was definitely a splurge on the food side each and every day. As for the gym? Totally MIA. At least I am sitting here typing this while munching on a fresh salad and chicken that my Rob grilled up for me. Who cares about that unsatisfying bagel I had for breakfast? Seriously, why did I eat it? I don't even LIKE bagels! I also had a SF Skim Latte from the evil empire (Starbucks) today. I had an hour to kill before my dr. appointment.

Yes, yet another doctor in the mix. My boss must think I'm terminally ill.

I have the laser hair removal every 4 weeks. Leave me alone, I'm part Pennsylvania Dutch and those are some hairy bitches! Of course, it is not working. A note to all you women out there - Laser Hair removal does NOT work on BLOND HAIR! Most places won't even waste your time or money. This guy though, he's simply a QUACK. But he already has my money so I'm still trying.

There are my dental appointments. Those have been about every 4 weeks with a few in between. Almost home free though! The final touch is supposed to be a nice gentle bleaching before the wedding.

Well, I guess those are the only two recurring ones, but it feels like every week I have one! Now, we've added one more.

Dr. Robertson. Nice Guy. Chiropractor. Nothing like make me THAT much closer to 30! My left hip has been killing still from running, plus there is the pre-existing numbness in my right thigh. Met with him today. Will go back next Friday. He did some adjustments to my left hip and then the L4 and L5. He also did some deep muscle things around the left hip and piriformus (Jamie taught me that one - it's nice to have a friend that is a physical therapist to bounce thoughts off of). Right now he thinks the pain was caused by excessive supination. The tendon in my foot is really really tight (I get lots of cramps in cold weather) so he worked on that some (nice, insurance pays for a foot massage!) Anyway, just evidence that I'm getting old. The best part - he said I can't run or jump rope for a bit. Like I was really planning on it. I can, however, swim and cycle. Good thing too - we're going to the lake this weekend!

With that said, eating will not be good. I know there will be alcohol, not that I indulge all that much, and some nibblers that will most likely also be bad for me. I will do my best to choose the lesser evils available.

So, you all have a great weekend - I'm off the BFL clock for a few more days.

Only 127 days left. About 18 weeks. Crap, time is flying!!!

Wedding update - I found a creative option for rehearsal dinner invitations. I ordered my supplies and everything should be in next week. Way in advance, but I'll need the time to put everything together. Thank god there are only 16! What else...we picked out our guest book. Yes, WE. My hubby-to-be is still very much involved. We sent the deposit for the rehearsal dinner and the flowers. We paid the church in full. We got the stamps for the RSVPs. Of course, with the new postal rates there was nothing cute. I went with the Forever Stamp. It is the Liberty Bell, and we are marrying in PA, and it is FOREVER and all. Think anyone will get it? We ordered the cameras for the tables and a few other odds and ends. I figured if we piece mail it over the months, it one hurt the pocket as much. Christ, we've already spent over 5k out between the two of us! ugh!!!
