Friday On My Mind - 4

Another Friday rolls round yay, and another photo for the lovely Rhonda from the Down To Earth blog Friday Photo Feature - 'On My Mind....'

So what is on my mind this lovely mild Friday?.............................
Seeings as Mr Mel and I are wanting to get married later this year (we got engaged on Valentines Day a few weeks ago, yay), I've bitten the bullet and joined Curves.

I need to get healthy and lose weight as a long term goal, but hopefully Curves can help me meet the short term goal of not looking dreadful in a wedding dress!

The ladies at the local Curves seem lovely, altho the lady teaching the Boot Camp class when I was there seemed a bit scary!

So this weekend I'm buying new runners, new gym clothes, and I start on Monday, look out!

Till next time,

    I followed you over here from Young House Love, and found myself totally amused by your header and "About Me." Despite the fact that you're a Scorpio! ; )

    Good luck and congrats on your weight loss journey.

    Becky - thanks :) it is a lovely incentive!!

    Buttons - thanks, I hope the wonderful things continue and they don't kill me!

    Twisted Soul - thanks :) glad to see another Curves gal who doesn't hate it! Yes the eating is a big thing also, we love to cook, and unfortunately what we love to cook isn't exactly fat free! But we're determined to make changes!

    Karen - thanks for following over :) I love Young House Love :) Thanks for the good wishes and congrats, I'll need them! Altho the Scorpio in me says victory is guaranteed (or people will pay heehe) :)

    Mel, I doubt you'd look dreadful in your wedding dress. I wish you every success and hope you reach your goals. When is the wedding?

    Rhonda - thanks :) No probably won't look dreadful, but I'm determined to be a bit happier about being in a white dress & being photographed in it! :) July is d-day!

    Rose - thanks :)

    the goal may be the wedding pictures, but if you manage to create a new habit of regular exercise, you will benefit the rest of your life!! I am a sporadic exerciser...still holding my own & don't weigh too much more than when I was younger, but a friend/classmate of mine is doing triathlons. I want to go back in time and live like her and look like she does at 50!! Go for the gold, you CAN do it, Mel!!

    Dmarie - agree 100%, the wedding is my first goal, my overall goal is health. 50 doing traithalons, that's amazing!
