Countdown: 13 Days_What do you do with stones that are too small?
I gave my four year old those teeny, tiny stones that I wasn’t going to use, a paper plate, a pair of tweezers, and put her swimsuit on some cardboard. The result? She has quietly spent the last 20 minutes carefully putting stones on every flower center and flower petal on that suit. She is completely engrossed and it is hilarious. Her mouth is open and she is gluing each individual stone, just like I’ve been doing. She said she can’t wait for the glue to dry. I hope the stones stay on while she has the suit on, becuase I didn’t want her using the permanent adhesive that I was using.
I am so sore. I worked my abs and some glutes and quads today with some one-legged lunges. I meet with Billy tomorrow and can’t wait to see what he cooks up. This week I bump up my water and am going to wean myself off of the protein shakes because next week it’s all food!
I am feeling pretty good. I did a partial carb up this weekend, which made me look less defined in my newest progress pictures. I’ll be depleting Monday-Wednesday, then carb-up later in the week. I created a Peak Week calendar and now I have to start going by that. I also need to start playing with my hair, twisting it, styling it and seeing what I can do with it. I also need some costume jewelry–just some earrings and a bracelet.
Later this evening…
My evening cardio was breezy. I did 50 minutes on the stairmill and I was drenched. I came home and my daughter was wearing her stone adorned swimsuit and rubber rainboots. Now that’s style.

Kids can do some of the most adorable things. They are truly a blessing. Keep working hard. Reading about your changes in diet is very interesting.

Thanks girl, needed a little encouragement. It’s time to drop calories and cut carbs–not a happy time. Hadn’t considered putting on my own stones, don’t know how. My suits are hot pink velvet and purple velvet. Let me know where to get the stones–fabric shop? Glad your little girl could be engaged in the process. What’s a peak week calendar? Your legs are very well defined. You are almost there!!!Thanks so much for sharing your story. I’m so hungry now I could eat the desk–anyhow I’ll chew my gum, drink water & smile.

That is so cute! I think I’ll get my step-daughter to do that with my while I’m working on mine. She loves bejeweling everything…including her cell phone!
