The countdown begins...blah

Hello blogging beauties :)
I thought I'd make an entry for a few reasons...catch-up, update, and officially mark the countdown. Now I don't know if I'm the only person in the world to think about this so much, but I am...I do...I'm a freak, I know.  Oh! About what? My 10 yr high school reunion. Yeah I know, some of you might think, who cares?!? But, I know there has to be some over-analytical person out there like me who is dreading the day. Today marks (well technically yesterday is day 1) 3 months till the weekend I get to meet all those "popular, smart, pretty, too cool for school kids" that I didn't care too much about...well I'm lying...what kid in high school didn't want to be part of that group? Ha. Random cool college grad from school says, "Oh hi Jessica, what are you doing these days?" Before stumbling over my own feet or saying something completely inappropriate (that I have a knack for doing) I'd think and say..."well...you know, work, and well, I'm married and we have 3 kids....and you know, just working" cheeeeeese :/.  Ok. Wait I need to pause.  Reeeeeeewind. I am SO proud of who I am today!! But looking on the shelf of plaques and certificates, its quite empty. As you know, I'm still finishing school for the millionth time, so that leaves me still working on the career.  I guess I should say, well I'm not homeless, unemployed, or on drugs...cheeeeeese :D.  That might help the "wow, you've done well for yourself!" factor. I mean honestly, I really could care less what they "think" of me cause I know the One person who matters, but let's face it...we're all human and those accomplishments in life do help our confidence.  Speaking of accomplishments let me catch you up on ME.  Remember we spoke about my weight goal back in January? Okay well that deadline is coming up in a little over a week and have I lost 20 lbs? No. Sadly, no.  But I'm still working on it!! Yep, I can say that I haven't quit.  I still workout a few times a week, occasionally take into consideration what I'm stuffing in my mouth, and I'm training to run a 5k in April & Beach to Bay in May.  This is an area where I am exceeding in thanks to God alone! I definitely agree that if I can just get this eating healthier thing down I'd be to a whole 'notha level in no time, so that brings me to my next update :) Jennifer Hudson, move on over hunny! I'm "officially" going to join WW.  I know last time I said that I was including tips from WW, but I have decided to actually join...as in go to the meetings and weigh myself in front of another person!! Understand that my husband doesn't even know what I weigh!! Unless he reads my blogs of course. So. That's pretty much where I'm at today folks.  As you may have come to see throughout my blogs, my weight has a pret-ty hefty affect on my confidence level, too. I'm expecting my breakthrough in all these areas, amen. I start WW next Tuesday, so I'll be sure to keep ya posted!! 
Oh, can't forget...here is a picture of me from last week...excuse my the weird facial expression I'm making...this is me in progress :)  I know, I know, I may not look like the ginormous person write about but we ladies should know that black does the trick, lol. And see my inner thighs...yeah those shouldn't touch. And the stomach...oh goodness, you should see that freddy kruger face monster!! Yuck.
