My Favorite (Filling) Breakfast

Earth shattering, right? These breakfast burritos only have about 250-300 calories and they keep me full for hours! Just a scrambled egg with a little cheese and vegetables on a whole wheat wrap. So good! I found these wraps at the Fresh Market awhile ago and have been avoiding them because whole wheat wraps have failed me in the past. But, these are pliable and super thin, just like regular white ones.

The brand is Wrap-Itz in case you’re wondering. I’m trying to convince myself that they are worth the 45 minute drive to pick up another package.

I hope you all had a lovely Father’s Day weekend! I worked a lot on my other website and we had a cookout on Saturday for Josh’s dad. I made this spicy honey chicken which has never failed me.

I’m so pleased with my morning exercise streak and making it my goal to complete another week of exercise.

And so now I have a little confession. I went back and forth as to whether or not I wanted to share this until I actually did the work, but I’m not one to keep things to myself, so here goes…

I’m going to be in my best friend’s wedding in September and this is the dress that we’re wearing. We found out last week that David’s Bridal has stopped making the dress and it was available on deep discount ($30!) at select stores. This meant that we needed to order our dresses ASAP because it would sell out. I ordered the dress in a size 24, which is my normal dress size and the size I’ve been fitted for in the past at Davids’ Bridal. Not being able to try the dress on before hand, I didn’t realize that it fits more like a size 22.

As you can see in the photo, it’s tight. And I could not go out of the house wearing it because the back slit is up so high that I’m flashing my undies- keepin’ it classy as usual! I can get into the dress zipped up except for the top 2-3 inches and if I sit down in the dress I’m convinced it would rip open and the zipper would take the eyes of anyone around me.

Because I can’t order it a size larger, and because I can’t exchange it. I’ve got a little over 12 weeks to fit properly in this dress. I’m up for the challenge! This means, getting more structured with my calorie counting and stepping up my workout game.  It’s going to be a shade more serious around here and honestly, the kick in the pants that I need.
