Blue to Match my Eyes!

This journey continues to be an exciting experience for me. I keep feeling better and better and the Lord keeps affirming me that this is the path I'm supposed to be on.
As of today, Thursday the 21st, I am 13 1/2 weeks out from the competition. My meal plan and training has been going great! The only setback was this past weekend when we went out of town with my sister in law and her fiance. For the most part I tried to stay on track with my meals by taking my food with me for my breakfast and snacks. There were a few meals that weren't good calorie-wise but being that I was still 14 weeks out and had followed my meal plan to a "T" the previous 2 weeks, I wasn't too worried about it. I got right back on track as soon we headed home.
Since we were going to San Antonio, I looked up the suit shop that was sponsored for the competition I'm doing and found that it was only about 10 miles away from where we would be. So before we left town to head home, my husband and I stopped in just to see about getting measurements, style, time frame, shoes, etc. I met with Carie, owner of Caries Posing Suits (http://www.cariesposingsuits.com/) and she was VERY helpful. She had me try on about 6 different suits. We ended up getting my suit and Carie went ahead and took in the straps and sides so it will fit after I lose more inches. Of course If I need any adjustments I can always stop in.... Too bad she's in San Antonio! But no, I didn't find a suit shop closer and since my competition is in San Anontio, I'm not too worried about it. IF worst comes to worst and I can't get to her, I can ship it to her for any changes or head over there a day early before the competition.
Here is a sneak pre-view!
I didn't expect to leave the shop with my suit picked out much less in hand! My husband wanted to go ahead and get it to spread out the costs. Which was a good idea! I now have my suit & heels!
