A Little Bit 'O Summer

Some girls go to Tupperware Parties, some girls go to Pampered Chefs...


But my girls???? My girls go to

BATHING SUIT PARTIES!



A friend of a friend is a bathing suit designer. Check out her website. She had us all over to check out her line, try on stuff and find a bathing suit that best 'suits' your body.

I love love love bathing suits so you could imagine how freakin' excited I was about this.

There were about 15 girls there and before you know it clothes are flying and we're all having a blast. I ended up with 2 suits and seriously want to go back. The designer Nichole and her girls are soooooooooooooooo fun and sweet. She made you feel totally comfortable and the entire experience so fun. I can't wait to see her new collection coming out soon.


This is one of the suits I got. I can't wait for Costa Rica next month, then Mexico in April so I can show off my new suits. Start thinking about bathing suit season now girls. It will be here before you know it!



And you better believe that the second I left the house, I went STRAIGHT to the gym (and then tanning).

.

In other news, I decided NOT to out with the Smarmy guy. He's too borderline stalker-ish. He called me Fri, but I didn't anwer. Then he texted me asking when I was available. I didn't respond. Then he texted me about 3 hours later saying he was busy all weekend. Sure you are dude. Sure you are.

Bathing Suit Season?

I know you must be thinking, "POM - you're crazy - it's only January!"

Yes my peeps, I am crazy - that's not in question. HOWEVAH>>> I have 3 trips in the next few months that will require bathing suits. This got me thinking... and I can't BELIEVE I am going to do this, but maybe it will be motivational to me (and hopefully some of you, too).



So here we go. Bathing Suit Pics. SCARY!!!!! Not for the faint at heart. WARNING!



The first pic is me in 2005 - weighing in at 168 lbs. After I saw these pictures, I knew something had to change. Of course it wasn't until winter that year (and my 30th bday) that I finally made some changes. Besides my big ol' tummy and thunder thighs, my FACE was so fat! ICK.
















Fast forward to Summer of 2006 - 7 months of eating healthy and a couple months of running. I had dropped to 134 (my current lowest weight ever). I went on a trip to Hawaii, where this pic was taken.















NOW - here is where I'm at - Stuck at about 139. Only 5 lbs difference but it's all in the belly. I have not changed my exercise routine BUT I was eating and drinking more. For me- weight loss is all about food/drink.
















I have less than a month before heading back to Hawaii. I would love to get back to where I was in 2006 and I know what I need to do. So let's do this thing! And yes, I am wearing the same suit so I really I do need to go bathing suit shopping. That's worse than jeans shopping. Eek Gads!
