Weigh in Wednesday

Wow ~ progress despite all the yummy Labor Day food at Mama's this weekend! Guess I'm glad I passed on the Cheetos a few times...

My feet look all digitized because I had to adjust the color temperature with Paint (I'm so not into Photoshop ~ I just don't have time in my life for that addiction to start) because I still don't know how to take good pictures with bathroom lighting.

I must comment on my "pretty pink toes" as noted by Angela last week. There was a time when I would have to give credit for a good toe polish to a nail salon, but two kids have zapped not only my spare cash flow but also my abundance of time! I am mostly a "low maintenance" kind of girl, but I do like to have polished toes. Sadly my attempts at polishing them myself usually look worse than just having bare toes. That is until a few months ago when I accidentally discovered the BEST nail polish I've ever used! It's called CQ and it costs $1.49 a bottle! Yes, you read that right, no need to go out and toss upwards of $8 at a bottle of OPI. This stuff goes on so smoothly and makes even my pathetic efforts at painting my toes (and my fingernails ~ I did them for the Charity Ball back in Feb, but who has time to worry about smudging fingernails on a daily basis?) look professional. But don't take my word for it, go get yourself a bottle.

And if you're wondering, I'm sporting color #236, Rose Topaz...

Congrats on the loss!! Every pound feels good, doesn't it? Good for you! It's too funny how I woke up this morning and thought- hey, it's weigh-in Wednesday! It's just fun being excited for others! :) And I keep forgetting to say how much I love the new format. It's SO cute, and I LOVE seeing Darcy's picture at the top. Man, she's adorable!!!
