Got my BD Book in today. Still trying to figure out what I am going to wear after the wedding ceremony. The UK has the cutest dresses (expensive but cute) and I might just wait until I get there on the 21st. Im not truly happy with my wedding dress and SOOO cant wait to trash it! I also ordered the memory frame from snapfish. Its really bracelet and I plan on wearing it after the ceremony.

I originally bought one from Jean M for about 20 including shipping. I will sale mine for 8 bucks (Free Shipping)

PM me if you want it!

Right now I am printing out all of our wedding and honeymoon reciepts and info so that when I get back from the UK I will be ready to go.

Today was my last day at work! YEA! I LOVE SUMMERS! On the 19th of July I graduate from graduate school and fly back to Japan AND then fly to Fiji 4 days later... boy will I need a vacation!

Heres pictures from my book.

Im on my 2nd day of Colonix. Guess where I am with my laptop YEP... You guys are closer to me than you probably want to know. Im not a regular person so this is great. I have pooped 2 days in a row. The only I time I do that is when I am on Alli. Maura, Alli will help you shed at least 5 lbs between now and the wedding but you must continue it. It makes me so bloated and sick the first few days but If I actually diet and reduce my caloric intake I start to feel good and I lose an average of 1.5 lbs per week. If I work out everday sometimes I lose more. Im not doing Alli now because of the Colon Cleanser. I havent gotten bloated yet. I am praying!

Amyh, your dress is AMAZING!!! I love it! It's sooo beautiful! I'm a sucker for the mermaid style and the embroidery on the bottom of it is spectacular!

Maura, cardio is the key and I would recommend 45 minutes each time. 30 minutes is good, but that is the bare minimum. If you do 45 minutes, you're golden. Also, I know you want to stick to cardio mainly but maybe twice a week you could try strength training because with weight lifting, you actually burn calories even when you're NOT doing it (i.e. sleeping). The effects last longer than with cardio. Also, it will help tone ya. And you've still got about 2 months so you will DEF see some toning in that time.

I love to workout and these things def do the trick for me.

Just came back from a party that the guys that work for my FI threw! Lots of yummy Japanese food and sake to go around! They gave us these special tea wedding tea cups.

Surrounded by Men! All of who understand Japanese...except for me...

Lots of Food and all you can drink for 2 hours

That is a great way to look at it! My resort finally got back to me and it is $200 cheaper to just have a symbolic cermony! and getting married at the court house is only going to cost me $50 so in the end I saved $150 bucks.. we are goign today to get our marriage liescen and then make an apt. for the last min for our legal day! yay!

I LEAVE IN 2 WEEKS!

ugh sorry youre glued to the toilet! i had to quit the colonix for a bit... i have stomach problems to begin with and when i am stressed at work they get much worse. taking the colonix was making me sicker, so i had to stop for awhile. i am hoping to be able to start it back up eventually when things at work calm down. i am going to go out to buy alli tomorrow (went today but they were out!) so hopefully it will work for me.
