I have literally been brought to tears!

Oh my Gosh!!! I am truly touched by everyones comments on my first post. Y'all are awesome for giving me all those encouraging words and offers to join me on this diet....I LOVE Y'ALL!! What a great support system...I need that. These next few months are going to be an emotional roller coaster for me...basically, I have to come off of an addiction, get needles stuck in my butt, belly and arse and have several intimate moments with my fertility doctor...not to mention the hormonal changes in this already sensitive and prone to rants personality. Poor Joe.

Well, Joe and I are going to the store today to stock up on food that we can eat (thank God he is joining me on this diet) but the official start date will be Monday. Tonight, I am having my niece and my neighbors 2 little girls sleep over so I HAVE to eat pizza, cotton candy and sugar cookies...I wouldn't want the girls to feel uncomfortable...you see, it's all about them :-) I will make this weekend my final last hurrah (every Sunday is a last hurrah)......at least till I get pregnant!

My friend Jill, the girliest girl I know, is coming over to add some feminine flair to the sleep over. There will be boa's and crowns, princess outfits, pink cotton candy and girly movies. I guess I should refrain from burping and sitting like a guy tonight....maybe I will wear a pink shirt.....or maybe it will be black :-)

I will post some pictures and stories tomorrow about the sleep over. And, stay tuned for a recap of last night's outing with the girls to see Sex and the City.

  1. Yes, I have been here twice in one day. I am so jealous what you are doing tonight. Sounds like so much fun. Those girls are going to have the best time! I have to work on getting Kevin to move again. Everything really is better in Texas, huh?

  2. Hey Amy,
    My one bit of advice to you is eat a GOOD breakfast...Egg beaters (or even a real live egg) and turkey bacon or yogurt with fruit and turkey bacon. I live on turkey bacon. How I lost the weight after having the babies is that I finally understood how important breakfast is...It starts you off for the whole day. I used to skip breakfast and then by 11am I'd cruise through the dunkin donuts parking lot and get a glazed crueller...Then, I wouldn't be hungry for lunch and then have something studid at 2pm and then have a crappy dinner. Now, I make sure that I have PROTEIN in the morning and I make sure to take care of ME. I know it is cliche to say that breakfast is the most important meal of the day but now I know that it's true. I am in the best shape of my life and it's because I eat a good, healthy breakfast. I love cereal but it is USELESS in terms of filling you up. It's hard at first but after a week or two you will get used to eating so early in the morning. Good luck sweetie. I am rooting for you.
    love

  3. Being a true Southern girl instills a true toughness. You'll do fine.
