Holy Mackeral! I didn't know fish were religious!!

WI feel accomplished with school as of late because I have made more time to focus on it.  Work has suffered a little.  I really need to get out of that job.  The other two guys serve a purpose..I just serve as the "get me" girl.."I need this..get me that..I want, I need"...ALL DAMN DAY.  They just think I dont' have anything to do so they give me new task or things to do around the office..and I just look at them and say.."sure..I'll put it on my list that is already the size of TEXAS!!"...

*breathe*

Any who..
I have maintained my 9 lb loss (woot!) and I will honestly say that is only from food portion control lately.  I watch what I eat and write it all down.  I am bad more often than I should and splurge on y points but I am good for keeping in my 50 pt allowance.  I need recipies that are fast and easy that I can come home from work and make quickly and be doing homework by 7 or 730 (I get home at 6pm usually).  Next Tuesday I have a dr appt with a new doc. Going to get some outside help and get back on meds I was taking that helped me out dearly (no not weight loss meds).

More important things tho!!

My weight loss this month so far has made me shoot for at least 5 lbs by end of the month.  If I can keep a steady 5lbs a month I'll be down by DragonCon!  Thats shooting way way low.  But I like to make super attainable goals but feeling awesome when I surpass them.  Hey ..it's motivation. I'll take it :)

So I decided for my costume I want to be somewhat of a huntress..not so much a safari hunt or world of warcrafty one but along the lines of steampunk.  Thanks to Miss Zwen, she suggested I go to this Etsy store: http://www.etsy.com/shop/damselinthisdress

I love this corset!! The pants too but methinks with some help (and another fine suggestion from Zwen) that I could make these pants myself.  I just like this look all together. So I am shooting for something similar.

Alligator material rocks for the huntress bit :)

I also like these pairings and picture with some lace up boots or some cute pointy toe boots.  This one goes with more of the steampunk western theme.  Get me some hot goggles and some steampunky sidearms...this would rock:

Awesome Bolero

Cute Bloomers

I hope everyone has a great rest of the week!! Tune in next time to "As the nerd turns"!
