31 days....

Since Zach and JP's graduation is a few days before my birthday, we've decided to have a party weekend!! Friday 9/18 they graduate in McKinney at some fancy country club :), Saturday 9/19 is my 25th birthday party (!!!!!), and Sunday 9/20 is their graduation party...so since I slacked off for the entire month of July on my diet and exercise, I've decided to make it my goal to stay on my diet with NO CHEATS and continue to workout at least 4 days a week until our party weekend. So I have 31 days (really a total of 32, since I started yesterday) and I am so going to do it! I'm a good little Methodist girl at heart and am used to giving something up for 40 days, so this is going to be a piece of cake (although I technically can't eat that piece of cake until the 18th)!

So to keep me accountable...yesterday I forgot to eat breakfast (I know, I know...the one meal you really shouldn't skip...) but I had a chicken salad for lunch and carb-less fajitas last night. Throughout the day I drank about 3 HUGE glasses of tea or water and went running with my Nazi brother! (He's not really a Nazi...but he definitely kicks my butt.) So you just watch out...I'm gonna be looking hot soon!

Let the countdown begin!!

It's already week two of August, so we all know what that means?!?! Let the birthday countdown begin!! As of today, there are 43 days until my 25th birthday!! It's really crazy to think that I'll be 25...we're getting old y'all!

Well keeping with countdowns...I've been on a diet (first the shake diet and since low-carb and working out) for the last 118 days (or close to 4 months) and I've officially lost a total of 36 pounds and just about 2 dress sizes! My goal for the next 43 days is to lose another 14 pounds for a total of 50 pounds. That's totally "do-able" I just have to keep on track and not maintain (which is what I did for just about all of July)!

Ever since JP was a freshman in high school (2003) I have made Homecoming mums/garters. I know this sounds so corny but I have so much fun making them...and if I get really into it I can make some extra money...and with Zach going through Paramedic school and having to work part time that extra money is sooo wonderful!! Well since GPISD or the football coaches or whoever sets the Homecoming schedule, has decided that Homecoming should be two and a half weeks after school starts, I have exactly 33 days...crazy!!! This is the flyer that Zach and I designed (with the help of Karen Davis...THANK YOU)!!!
Speaking of Zach and JP...they are both nearing the end of Paramedic School...can I get a Hallelujah!!! For the entire month of August they are on rotation with Dallas FD and will graduate in 41 days!!!! I am so, so, so proud of them!!!! (No I'm never going to be a teacher...)

Lots to look forward to in September! By the way...Christmas is only 138 days away!!!!

Where's Adalyn?

** Looks like the winners will be Robin and Kelli as Robin will be induced on Wednesday morning. Check her blog for real time updates on the day of!**

Judging from Casey's excitement and Robin's exhaustion, Adalyn Grace is coming soon and this baby girl can't get here quick enough! Since August 1st is the expected due date, it is time to start a "Where's Adalyn?" Pool!

We've got 26 possible days for baby Adalyn's arrival, with two spots per day available! Entering the pool will not cost you anything, BUT for each entry, Zach and I are donating $1 (to give the Averitt Family a possible $52 dollars on Adalyn's birthday)! Also, the winning guesser(s) will receive an "a-DOOR-able Hanger" (that will be customized). To join in the pool, just leave a comment with your name and guess -- the schedule will be updated as often as possible.
*If more than two people guess the same day before an update was made, I will take the first two guessers.*

GOOD LUCK!! :)

Week 11 Results

So I'm officially down 32 pounds!!!!! Brittany and I have been working out everyday at lunch or after work and its really paying off!! Next Saturday marks 12 weeks of so I'll definitely have to take measurements and another picture just to see if there are any noticeable differences! I've already dropped about a size and a half...so I'm hoping by my birthday I can drop another 2 sizes! Fingers crossed!

In other news...I need all you GP, Arlington, Las Colinas, etc...girls' help! My cousin just started selling Premiere Jewelry and so my mom and I are helping her out by hosting two parties for her on Thursday. The first party will be mainly GPISD teachers enjoying happy hour at 4:30 and the second one is for those of us who work during the summer and that starts at 6:30! For my cousin to count this as 2 parties we need at least 10 people at each party. So this THURSDAY, JULY 2nd at 4:30 or 6:30 be at the Seider household!!! We'll eat and drink and play in jewelry, so please come and bring a friend!!

Its a 4 day work week people!!!! Can I get an AMEN!!!

Seriously?!?!

Where has the time gone? It does not seem like its been almost 2 weeks since I last posted. Time totally is flying by!

So let's catch up...Week 8 results: -28lbs (YEA!)
Week 9 results: -25lbs (BOO! Too much celebration that continued into the week...)
This Saturday will be Week 10...I've been kicking butt all week and really hope to be down 30lbs! We'll see! BUT! I have officially dropped a size in clothing! My goal is to be down another 2 sizes by the end of summer...

Last night I went to my first Ranger game of the season (GASP...I know...)!! Justin had an extra ticket and even though I was the back-up invite (since Zach had class last night) I still had a great time and we had awesome seats!

It was dollar hot dog night so I drank my 2 bottles of water and watched as Justin created his food baby and was so miserable!
Brandon and Jennifer went too!!! So fun! PLUS, Pudge actually broke the "most games caught" record so that was a really neat experience...although I didn't tear up like Brandon did! HAHA! The game went into an extra inning but the Rangers WON!!
These are phone pics so they aren't the greatest....

I love my friends and I'm so glad Zach had class last night! :)

Week 7 1/2 Results...

The last few weeks I've been hovering at a weight loss of 22-23 pounds...and it has just stayed there...no matter what I ate or if I worked out. Well I am proud to say that this morning I weighed in and I'm down 26 pounds!!! Does that not sound so great? :) The official Week 8 weigh-in is Saturday morning, so I'll be pushing crazy hard until then!!

By the way, thank you, thank you to everyone who commented and emailed me your opinions on the door hanger. I really do appreciate it! I'm trying to finish up a few other door hangers to post...but with all of the great feedback I've gotten already, I think I'm ready to take the next step. More to come later though!
