So I have this gorgeous dress and beautiful accessories for the day of, but I want to be in better shape for the wedding day. I have pretty decent eating habits, since Mr.Darcy feeds me. (Mr. Darcy is an awesome cook and usually makes the entree for dinner and I make the sides, plus he packs my lunch for me every day. Yes, I know. It is super sweet.) Except, that Mr. Sewing brought me this lovely thing, called a brand new Kitchen Aid mixer (AAAAAHHHHHH!!!!), and I can’t stop baking. I have made three cakes in two weeks (don’t worry Mrs. Sewing I plan on baking one for all of you this weekend.) So that hasn’t exactly helped, but I am working on it. I am babbling now, so I will get back to my point. I need to call and make my appointment for my first fitting, but I don’t want to until I lose 15 pounds. Let me just put this in perspective by saying I need to lose these 15 pounds anyways, so I feel like the wedding is a good motivation to get back on track with a healthy lifestyle. I have decided to bribe myself into exercising. I would really like a new craft machine, a paper cutter/embosser, especially since it would make several of my projects, so much easier. I have given myself permission to buy this new machine if I work out a total of 15 hours for the whole month of June. That is an average of 30 minutes a day. So I am going to record all work outs. The goal is to average 30 minutes of cardio 5x a week and do 1 hour of strength training a week. So you want to see what I get if I succeed?

Maybe I should do the same only with a serger… Just think how quickly I could get things sewn then!
