How was today??? Freaking AWESOME!!!! I shoveled my entire driveway by myself... wouldnt let KEvin help. I didnt think I could do it so I tried, just to prove to myself that I could and I did.... and in an hour 15 mins none the less!! Talk about burning calories, holy moly... Anyway, I had to make up for some pizza I ate last night... it wasnt diet ruining, but it could have been. I had barely eaten all day (which is stupid, I know), so when Kevin brought home pizza it was like, get out of my way so I can engorge myself!!! Put it this way, I had so few calories for the day that I still managed to come in under 1300 for the day AFTER eating 2.5 pieces.... an all time record for me because usually I can only eat two pieces max. So, I am not going to consider it cheating because I needed the cals. Okay, I have come up with a challenge for all of my girls. (guys can participate as well..... if their into that kind of things ;)) I have decided to challenge all of you to an Easter Challenge. Our V-Day challenge ends this week and I dont want us to lose momentum just because we have reached one goal... So, my challenge is for you to pick out a really cute Easter dress, and be able to fit into it by Easter. YOU decide what size to pick, this is a goal you chose for yourself.... all I ask is that you post a pic of yourself in it at the end of the challenge. I was talking to Carol, and I said, I remember being a little girl and being so excited about getting a new Easter dress for church every year and how pretty I felt wearing it. I felt special. So, I'm going to do it this year, I'm going to fit into a gorgeous spring dress, and feel good about it. If you dont celebrate Easter, thats okay, call it a spring dress then. But, if your onboard let me know. I'll post the pic tomorrow of my dress, (I already had it and just have never been able to fit into it. I'm hoping by Easter that I'l be able to). If nothing else it will be an excuse for you to go shopping! And a couple of laps around the mall looking for the dress can go towards your exercise for the day!!!! So its good all around! lol. Just thought it would be fun, and something to look forward to. Winter can get so grey and sad, lonely and discouraging and I thought we could brighten everything up with our gorgeous Easter/ Spring dress'! Okay, food for the day was: Brunch, a Lean Cuisine egg/cheese/can. bacon on eng. muffin and a baked hashbrown, no snack havent been hungry, Dinner a salad with grilled chicken and FF ranch. I'm going to have a bowl of Fiber One Raisin Bran with skim milk for snack later. I know I am low on cals but I REALLY havent been hungry today... Maybe it has something to do with the monthly thats been a no show... Prego test tomorrow... cant resist any longer... Be prepared to help me move past the negative results... I'll be okay it jut makes me sad.. Anyway, ONLY HAPPY THOUGHTS!! Hope everyones having a great day/night!! Let me know if your in on the challenge!

Well, I\'m in...I just am not sure I\'ll be able to afford a dress. I have a sexy dress in my closet that I\'ve never worn - it\'s black and red - not exactly \"spring\" time colors...but if that\'s ok for you, I\'ll use that one.
I am officially in on the challenge and will post it as a goal after Tuesdays challenge is over. So do you think I should call it the easter dress challenge or finding my inner vixen LOL! I solemnly swear to post a pic at the end. When is Easter again???
Hehe just like Jenna I don\'t think I can get a brand new dress (maybe later hehe) but I wanna fit in my \"little black dress\" a lot better.
I\'m in, seem to be waivering lately. Need some ASS kicking!!!! I hate dresses, I\'m one of those girls with cankles!!!!
Okay, doesnt have to be an \"eastery, springlike\" dress, just a dress you can wear and feel hot in by Easter.
P.S. It doesnt have to be a new dress.. the one I\'m wearing is one I bought years ago and never fit into...
Heyyyy! You bet Im in on the challenge!:) I love it...ill look online for the perfect dress and post a pic...hmm..ill have to think about my goal size..but I am soooo in:D Really excited about it:)
P.S. Im done with pregnancy tests..grrr..I am late every stinkin month and I get so excited..take the test..and then major disappointment follow by a week of horrible depression! Your soo strong in many ways.
Have a great night and a great monday morning
MUAH

Ok, I want to be in the challenge, but am not ready to post any pictures of myself. I am starting with so much to lose, it would not be very noticiable anyway and would be a downer. I decided not to buy any more clothes again in plus sizes. I\'ll wear what I have until they are too big, then burn them or give tham away! So, could I post a picture of the shirt that goes with an outfit that I have in a medium which is in my goal size? I promise to post pictures as I get closer to my goal. I know it\'s kinda stupid, but that is where I\'m at now. Or, I could post a picture of my old ugly black pants in flames as I move down one size at a time. I should be out of them by Easter.
I\'m IN! I\'m not gonna buy a new one, but i have this gorgeous white dress I bought in New York that I have never worn, it\'s so cute! Ill be sure to get my butt into that dress and post a pic the day before Easter! Good idea for the challenge!
Okay.. lady.. count me in too!!! I like this idea.... I have my black dress for Vegas to maintain until March.... When is Easter this year? I do have a dress.. I bought in in FL in 2004 to aspire to. Now to get inspired!!
How about a skirt.. I have one that I love that\'s a bit tight yet... or at least I think it\'s still tight, it was the last time I tried it on... would that do?
Ok, I don\'t like dresses but I guess it can be a new outfit. I would like to post an picture but I don\'t know how. It does sound like a great challenge.
