Don't Bite Off More Than You Can Chew

Good morning,
 This week has been extremely eventful, and my weight has fluctuated like always. My 21st birthday was this Wednesday, and my goal was not achieved. I did however, have an amazing birthday! I got to spend time with my family, my grandparents came into town, I received spa services all day, and did I mention, I got an iPad! What?!? I am currently on said iPad, typing this as my daughter pulls out all of her dad's socks from his sock drawer...

Anyway, on my birthday I had FIVE drinks and a shot of tequila, (thanks to my friend Steve) and the next morning I had gained THREE pounds!!  No hangover though, which was awesome! Two days later on October 5th 2012 at 3:38pm a beautiful, perfect, 7lb 6 oz, 20 inch baby girl was born, named Addison Rose. One of my best friends since jr.high school Sami is her beautiful mother and I am so lucky to be a part of her pregnancy and be reconnected with her.

The very next day, we went down to Del Mar and saw a beautiful wedding for Mike and Jennifer Piantanida. It was beautiful and she looked lovely! Did I mention there was an open bar at cocktail hour? I had three drinks. This morning after losing the three pounds from my birthday, have gained them back. Alcohol and I are no longer friends... Not because of hangovers, because I have yet to have one or be sick, but because of weight gain.

My friends, I have a new challenge for myself. I want to lose 10 pounds in 10 weeks. That means by December 16th I will be 207 lbs, maybe less, but let's not push it. I will post a picture today and on that day, and give you progress updates along the way. Wish me luck, I am going to need it.

Starting weight: 217.0 lbs
