Well, Ashley's wedding last month was fantastic. It was beautiful, we got to eat cake, jerk chicken, peas and rice; we got to dance, drink champagne, hang out with the bride and groom in their hotel room (they insisted we stay, though I still think I hexed myself by staying). It was also tons of fun hanging out with old friends and share memories with them--we stayed with my friend Rose in her new house in Lantana. Spent way more than we needed, partied harder than we should have, wasted more gas than necessary, but it was an absolute jubilee and we would do it again in a heartbeat.
This weekend, Patrick and I will be in Ohio for yet another wedding: Gina and Brandon's. It will be fun, totally out of our financial abilities, and a great experience in a brand new state. Two, in fact, seeing that we're flying into Pittsburgh and then driving into Ohio. I am eagerly looking forward to taking this break with Pat and experiencing a new, strange environment. And get this: it's his first time getting on a plane! It will be exciting.
The diet has been well until yesterday and Saturday. I am already at 35 hours so I will hit overtime tonight when I go to work. Saturday I worked 14 hours and when they put chocolate out for us I couldn't help myself. So these last 2 days have been busy and they pulled out the chocolate, thus leading to 2 cheat days for me. But I believe I have lost 10 pounds and am on track to get back into ketosis this week! The wedding this weekend will be a cheat-a-thon but no worries. I will be back on track right after and I am positive about it. Plus, I have been burning a ton of calories at work so it's sort of balanced out.
So I am looking at return tickets from Pittsburgh and going to take a nap before my long shift tonight. Wish me luck with everything!
