Coming Out Party

Back in the olden days, girls had "coming out" parties, which was meant to introduce them to society, and hopefully find a suitable match, which would benefit both families.

Coming out has a whole new social connotation now, but that's not what this is about.

Tomorrow night is my coming out party. Everything I've done for the past 6 months to improve my body will be put on display tomorrow night. I'm as thin as I can get before tomorrow night, and although I'll tan tomorrow morning before we leave, I'm probably as dark as I'm going to get.

I'm still a half pound shy of the 45 lbs I wanted to lose...maybe the scale will be kind tomorrow morning. Not terribly worried about it - it'll still be better than last year.

I've been exercising at minimum every other night - arm curls, ab crunches, reverse ab crunches and leg lifts (wearing ankle weights). My legs and arms have definition they've never had before, and although I'm not "done" yet, it's obvious that I've been working out.

Tomorrow, I will do myself proud, and do my husband proud. He can't wait to show me off, because he knows how much it meant to me to look good this year. I don't look great, but I do look good and that's good enough ;)

Have a nice weekend, all.
