Three Months, No Progress

I launched the Goddess Project last August in preparation for a very good friend's wedding on May next year (2013). At the same time, I want to slim down a bit because (1) I want to be able to wear the clothes that I want to, (2) I can feel the fat embracing my internal organs already (unhealthy) and (3) my boyfriend's bitter ex-girlfriend has a knack of name-calling and there was a time that she actually called me a pig. I didn't take it bad actually because pigs are very nice and sweet. But when I go shopping, all I can buy are shoes and bags because I get frustrated when I try on clothes that don't fit. So yeah, I have to really slim down.

October is about to melt and three months after I launched the Goddess Project, I am still nowhere near my target weight loss. I think I may have even gained a few pounds. Which is why when I saw my social calendar this upcoming holiday season, I knew I have to fast-track this Goddess Project thing. It doesn't just start and end with weight loss, because there are some other things that need polishing too.

So as of now, I have two significant weddings to attend to before the year ends. It was supposed to be three but apparently the first one was called off (yikes!). I don't know the nitty-gritty details yet but that was what I heard from the grapevine. The next is an uncle's wedding in Tagaytay. And then a childhood friend's wedding here in Laguna. Hmmm... I should try to catch the bouquet in one of them, yes? Hahaha!

Although I am not part of the bridal entourage in those two weddings, and I have no intention of stealing the show, I want to be pleasant to look at. And from now to the two weddings, I have roughly around two months to get myself into shape. Which is a good thing because after December, I have another five months to fit into the goddess gown for the May 2013 wedding.

I guess it's goodbye frappucinos and cheeseburgers for now. For now.
