Doing well

I know I have posted several times that I have been working out, and I haven't lost any weight! Tomorrow will be 5 weeks and I still weigh exactly what I did 5 weeks ago! Grrrr....so I started getting pretty frustrated about it and today I got my "check up"! THis is where they check your weight, body fat percentage, and your BMI. My weight, as I already said, has not changed, my body fat percentage has gone down 4 % which is really great. I still have a long...long....long way to go, but at least it boosted my morale. I have actually been jogging and I have been trying to get in two miles a day, and today I actually got 2 miles consecutively in today...That's two miles in a row! My knees and ankles are killing me, but it was well worth it!

My grandfather had his doctor appointment today and they ended up doing an MRI instead of a biopsy. The doctor said that he doesn't think there is anything to be concerned about, which is why they didn't do a biopsy, but he will have to go back in 3 months. This is really great news!

One of my best friends, and neighbor, Nikki and her husband are getting really serious about having their first baby. I am so excited from them. I can't wait for them to experience the joy of a child. I know this is so incredibly selfish, but I want Nikki to be a bridesmaid in my wedding, so I am hoping they either have the baby before the wedding day, or after. Not that I want them to wait to get pregnant, or rush on account of my wedding, I am just hoping that she wont be due the week of the wedding! I know this is a horrible thing to think or even say out loud...so I guess I am a horrible person, but I really really really want her to have a baby, I just dont want her to go into labor on the day of my wedding, actually, I dont think I would really mind that. I think I am more scared, knowing my luck, that she will go into labor the day before the wedding! Honestly, any way that it happens, I will be so exstatic to see Nikki pregnant, to see her itty bitty belly grow. To watch Travis' love for her change...its crazy, you can love someone so much and think that there is no way you could ever love them anymore, until pregnancy happens. It changes, because you end up loving them even more, and then you have the child, and you love that person even more for giving you the child. Anyway, I guess I just really want Nikki standing there with me the day I get married. At the same time, I want Nikki and Travis to have a beautiful baby....and trust me, if you saw them, you would know that there is no way possible they could have an ugly baby, even if it means she wont be there on my wedding day!

JR and I will be having our engagement party on July 11, so I am excited about that, I am just struggling to get all the information to Dana, best friend and maid of honor. So I have to get back to that! YEA!

I want her preggers as well! They will be the best parents! Don't worry, my maid of honor was 9 months preggers at my wedding, she didn't give birth for another 2 weeks :).

Ya, I thought you wanted me to be 8 months pregnant up there with you so you could look beautiful and small next to my gargantuan-whale-self. ;) I'll be there! Don't you worry! PS - It might be difficult to find a bridesmaid dress with room for a prego-belly...
