Shhhh….I have a secret!!!!!
Okay my little buddies…
rn
I have a secret. On December 9th I will be attending a Celebrity Wedding in Chicago! 
rn
Okay, so it’s really the wedding of a CHILD of a celebrity, but still, pretty big deal…It will be a fancy smancy deal…And out of respect for the family I will NOT tell you directly who it is…
rn
You are allowed to guess, however, and if you get it right, I will tell you, but not on here, privately in email! You never know what kind of crazies hang out in cyber world!!! 
Hee hee hee…
rn
Okay. So two months ago I ordered two fancy dresses on line, because we have been invited to the rehearsal dinner, the wedding and the going away bruch/reception the following day…All three things pretty big events…
rn
I ordered the dresses sight unseen…They arrived, they were gorgeous, they both fit, but one BARELY…I looked kind of like a stuffed sausage! 
But I wasnt concerned…
rn
So this weekend, my DH made me try them on again, because he had never seen them on, and he said if they need altered, I must do it now…
rn
Well, I am happy to report one dress needs altered severely!!!! WAY too big now…WOO HOO!!!!
rn
The other dress, well, I no longer look like a sausage, more like a slim frankfurter!!! 
But with some clever tricks of the trade (Girls, you know what I mean) I should be able to make myself less sausage/frankfurter like by then…Disguise those fat rolls!
rn
Anyway, overall I was pleased, as was DH…And I am hoping I can loose 10 more pounds by then! Its exatly 6 weeks away, and I think I can do it.
rn
So thats my own new challenge. 10 pounds (OR MORE!!!) by December 9th!!!!
rn
Say a prayer for me and KEEP ME IN LINE all of you!
Do not let me fall off the wagon!!!! PLEASE!!!
rn
Happy Monday all!!

You are gonna tell us after, right????? I so wanna know!? Plus, how long are you gonna be in Chicago?? If I could find a reason to be there, I’d love to try to hook up with you for dinner or something, depending on the weather.? I’m about two hours out, in Michigan.?
Hey, I’ll join you on the 10 pounds.? That’s what I’ve got left to get to my mini goal.? I wanted it by my birthday (Nov 28th) and that’s looking unlikely, cause I waited to long to get serious, but I’ll take Dec 9th!?
How dare you!!!!
?That is totally mean!? We’re gonna have to start calling you a tease!!
And the change in fit of the dresses is awesome!?
?But I’d wait til a couple of weeks before to have them altered.? If you do it now, they may be too big again by then!
Dawn,
Lol, how about some clues on the celebrity thing???
Omg that is sooo cool that your dresses are going to work and even better that you have to have one altered because it is to big…SWEET!
10 lbs by December…You can totally do that.
xoxoxo

Yea!!! great job! I know that must be an awesome feeling losing that much weight!!! and you can and WILL succeed and meet your goal! Congrats and keep up the amazing job!
Hey Dawnie, maybe you can help me with my eating situation too.? I could really use the encouragement.? We can do this!!? No problem….right?!?!?!?
Just wanted to say thats great on the dresses~?? You can do it~? Congrat and keep up the good work~
YOUR DOING GREAT - KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK AND YOU HAVE TO TELL US NOW THAT YOU SAID THAT MUCH.? COME ON NOW….WE WON’T TELL ANYONE.? I’M HAPPY YOUR DRESS IS GOING TO FIT AND HOW GREAT IS THAT, YOU HAVE TO TAKE ONE IN - GOOD FEELING.
Dawn, I think 10 lbs in 6 weeks for someone as motivated as you should be no problem whatsoever!? You’ll be looking hot for all the paparazzi!!
Thanks for your comments on my blog, it’s so nice to have others along for the ride!
?
I would like to lose some weight by January 1, 2007.? I want to lose 12 pounds, and be down to my mini-goal.? I think it is so great that the dresses are too large, it is easier to take in than let out.? Take care.? Have fun getting ready for the wedding!
