Jenny, the starfish stopper looks pretty nice.

I have used both PayPal and bank wire to send deposits to several vendors in Mexico. There is a fee involved with PayPal/bank wire and the transaction can be tracked. The question should be "Is the vendor legitimate?" Also PayPal charges by a percentage of the total amount and it has a higher percentage for sending money to foreign countries, you may want to do a quick comparison with the flat fee for bank wire.

Go Bride Leslie! You did a great job!

Love it!!! The matching labels will add colors to the white envelopes.

Congratulations Gracie!!! Your wedding looked beautiful!!!

This is way worse than #1 Fashion Faux Pas - panty lines! I feel bad for the bride but at the same time it is funny.

Circuit training with Jillian Michaels "No More Trouble Zones" and had a great work out. Sushi for dinner!!!

Very nice!!! You are glowing in that dress.

Went to "Total Body Pump" at lunch today. Did only eight 30-second sprints before class since I was running late.

Dang, that IS hard core!!! Congratulations on the progress!!! Keep it up!!! Quote: Originally Posted by Stamperamma Hired myself a trainer. Today is day three, I swear he is trying to kill me.

Unfortunately the gym at work doesn't offer any Zumba class at this point. If I sign up for a second membership with the gym 1 mile from the office, they offer a Zumba class on Fridays during lunch time. However, it is based on enrollment and it costs extra too. I need some latin dance moves really bad for the wedding in Mexico. I am a VERY STIFF dancer.

Definetly a good way to spice up the boring old routine of spin, weights and yoga! The moves were surprisingly challenging at times. I have a bit of dance training so I wasn't totally lost, but there were a few ladies there who were doing alot of arm and leg flailing, but what counts is they were moving and having fun. Poohshek you should definetly give it a try to see if its for you! Do they offer classes at your gym?

After getting quotes on flowers from florists and wedding coordinators in Playa del Carmen, I decided to have all boutonnieres, centerpieces and my bouquet made. Since our wedding is pretty small (approximately 30 guests), all the floral arrangements can be packed in a suitcase. I am very pleased with the silk flowers and would rather use the savings for entertainment/food.

Keep your fingers crossed! I hope it all works out for you!

My favorite lunch activity - 30-minute step aerobics followed by 15-minute ABS. Also did ten 30-second sprints on the treadmill to get warmed up before class.

Can't even get a pair of flip-flops for that price! You did REALLY GOOD!!! Very cute shoes and it is comfortable too!!!

I have heard so many great things about Zumba and would love to try it out too!!!

Sorry about the foot injury. However, you still have time to get your workouts in before your wedding. 3 weeks will go by so fast!!! Meanwhile you can maintain your weight by eating well.

Very awesome!!! Bet you are getting extremely excited!!! and Congratulations!!!

Alright... I was running late to the gym and was hoping to have a great workout using Jillian Michaels DVD "No More Trouble Zones". There was a spin class at 5 p.m. and I was on the second last track and had to stop. Oh well... I made it up with ABS.
