Weekend Wedding in Vermont

Posted on the 05 July 2013 by Gray Eyed Athena @grayeyedowl

The much anticipated wedding was last weekend!  This was the date I had in mind when I refocused my goals and motivations.  I had planned to have lost a grand total of 35 pounds by then, and instead lost 30.  I’m okay with that; coming within the 5 pound mark is still something to celebrate.  You’ll remember also that I posted about my goal dress, with pictures for inspiration.  Although coral was the color of choice, I tried on a million different dresses at many different stores, but ended up falling in love with this baby blue Cynthia Steffe design.  I love it.

And Joe looked dapper in chino’s and new shirt.  The dress fit like a glove (for better or for worse!), was incredibly comfortable, and I felt good all night long.  The ex-girlfriend didn’t show up (must have heard I was going to be there… wink wink) and while the weather was touch and go, the venue (high in the mountains of Vermont) was beautiful.
