LOL oh how funny misconceptions can be! We don't actually manufacture that much cheese here, more so just beer and phenomenal NFL legends. cheese : wine

haha i know right. isn't it awesome! I'm seriously getting one for myself too...maybe in a different color or something. Now to find my wedding dress....that'll be a little more difficult !

It was 50 degrees here one day, got 15 inches of snow 2 days later. Isn't it GREAT to live in the midwest!! ha ha

snow : Wisconsin

hahaha I remember the forest gump one that's hilarious. What a weird guy, he can't ever stop talking lol you can tell it's just so hard for him he has a comment for eeeeverything. I really gotta get started on the videos. Are you ladies actually following the diet plan? I never really read any of that crap when I did it the first time.

Do you think the Jackie Warner tapes are more intense than P90X? I've been looking to try something new too.

That dress is so pretty, and I agree it would be flattering for a pregnant woman too! The color is gorgeous and I don't feel like i've seen that color around a lot so it's unique too! Thanks! I saw it and knew immediatley it was the one I wanted. It's a Liz Fields dress #362 in turquoise. I found it online and then on the website (www.lizfields.com) found a retailer near me that sells the brand, I'm doing turquoise and lime green with accents of deep purple for the wedding, I wanted to make it fun and tropical looking! We will be in Jamaica after all =D

I found the bridesmaid dress i'm going to use! I love it and think it's perfect for a beach wedding, may have to get one for myself too! haha.

Aww Mrs. Martin, your kids are adorable. My little Chloe is turning 9 months on thursday, they grow up so so fast I feel like I just had her! She said mama for the first time yesterday and it pretty much melted my heart! I just got her these robeez cowboy boots, haha so cute!

Great advice! I think a lot of people think if they excercise a lot they'll lose the weight, but if you don't eat right along with the exercise it will never happen. I've had to switch my diet up a bit recently, i'm a vegetarian and a picky eater so I have to make sure I eat enough lean protein, not just carbs and salad! I was reading on vegetarian sources of lean protein and I found the source with one of the highest percentages is chickpeas! They're really yummy, I made hummus with them the other night and it was aaaamazing. A very healthy and tasty alternative to any kind of dip or sandwich spread. I also read back a few pages and i'm glad you were trying to convince everyone to not just do cardio but weight train and lift heavier weights. People always try to tell me i'm going to get all huge and manly from lifting heavy weights and doing low reps and it's so not true. I did the low weight 15-20 reps thing for many many months and it kept me in decent shape but when i switched to heavy weights I could almost immediately see changes in my body's definition. So so glad I found the light and switched to heavier weight. Originally Posted by sxcT You ladies seem pretty motivated. Keep at it!!

Treat ur body well by feeding it well. Don't put to much value in food - just eat to live instead of living to eat.

sky : clouds

Awesome thanks! Woohoo can't wait to book our room! Do they really not get a hold of you until a month before the wedding to plan details?? I might go crazy if I have to wait that long.

Yes i'm so glad too thanks for the advice. I have a potential for pregnancy in my bridal party too, and I have to wait to see who's all coming for sure. One of my 2 sister's has baby twins and her husband is a vice principal at a high school here and a work-aholic so they might not be coming. But if they are coming, I feel obligated to make her one of my bridesmaids. I asked my best friend already accidently because I was showing her the bridesmaid dresses I liked and just could not keep it a secret lol oops. I'll probably wait until people have booked the trip to ask anyone else though. I have to wait another month for flight prices to come out for next January! It's nice that destination weddings are so much less work (at least it seems that way to me), so we don't have to rely on our bridesmaids to help plan all the small details.

haha i totally forgot what a weirdo that guy is until you said that! When i did it the first time my FI and i would always just bust out laughing at him. I like when he does arm circles and makes weird noises pretending he's a pterodactyl. Woo can't wait to start in a week, now time to go to the gym boo sick of working out with a crowd of 50 people all the time.

beach: bikini

Does anyone know if we're able to stay in a different part of the hotel than where our wedding is? My FI and I want to stay at the suites but we're having our wedding at the beach.

Thanks, i'll ask on that thread too. We're going to Couples Swept Away in Negril for our honeymoon! It'll be nice to honeymoon at the Grand cause it's adults only, it looks sooooo nice. Bob Marley terrace sounds cool! I like the idea of the cocktail party after dinner I think it will be just as fun and special as if you rented out a restaurant. You'll have to let me know how it is and take lots of pics because I might end up doing the same type thing! More to decorate yikes I don't know how i'm going to get all this stuff to Jamaica haha

Oops i meant March 1 not May 1.

Absolutly, I have and would again. My FI and I plan to buy a farm in the next 5 years. I'm a horticulture specialist, we love to grow Would you ever move to Europe? (if you're from the US or move to the US if you're from Europe)

Good job everyone keep it up! I was moving all weekend and I think I'll have all our equipment and the TV or course set up in the workout room by the end of next weekend so my tentative start date will be a week from tomorrow. May 1st. I thought the 1st of the month seemed like a good day to start, and then I can cancel my membership at snap fitness for next month. Jessica - that's awesome one of your bridesmaids is doing it with you, my best friend (one of my bridesmaids) wants to do it with me but we're both really busy people and have conflicting work schedules so I don't think we'd barely ever get to work out together. I doubt she'd want to get up and work out with me at 5 AM on tuesday and thursday haha.

boating: water skiing
