No sir, I won't do it.
My old roommate from San Diego, who is a very good friend I used to bartend with in my hometown, asked me to call her the other day. We have a really amazing friendship and I value her dearly but outside of FB messages and texts we call or Skype very rarely. We stayed with her last may for that wedding I was in and she's just one of those friends that even though you haven't seen them in four years you feel like you never skipped a beat.
So I was thrilled when she told me she had gotten engaged! She asked me to be in her bp and I'm very excited. Bachelorette in Vegas, the whole nine (I've never actually even been to a Bach party, I didn't even have one). We chatted for a few and after we hung up, I came to one unnerving realization...
ZOMG all her friends are freaking models. Legit models.
I can't be the fat bridesmaid. I won't be the fat bridesmaid.
NO SIR, I WON'T DO IT.
So it's time to bust my ass again.
I'd already been bringing my lunches to work and running a little in the mornings the past few weeks in attempts to kick start me back into the gym. Went to bootcamp and then jogged this morning, counted my calories, bought a new battery for my heart rate monitor.
I am ready.
I can do this (again).
Yes I know I sound vapid and shallow but I've been unhappy with my weight since starting the new job. It's time to buckle down and put in the work to turn it around. What better motivation than having to be placed next to bikini models??
Right?!?!!!???

My motivation came after the fact lol. DH and I both put on a solid 20-25 pounds after the wedding and only after we saw the photos of us in SILs wedding last Sept did we stop and say holy moly we need to get ourselves back to normal.
Sigh.
