#FitReaders: Weekly Check-in May 13

#FitReaders is hosted by Geeky Bloggers Book Blog  and That’s What I’m Talking About

 

So, this was a pretty crazy week, work-wise. We had our first-ever fundraiser, and while it was a success – YAY!!! – it was crazy right up til the start of the event with all the running around and last minute to-do’s that needed doing. But, as I said, the event was a success and hopefully we will continue to do it. That being said, I’m glad we have a while before the planning starts for the next one, though it is fun to get all dressed up and I have to say, all my working out and healthy eating has done me good – I felt great in my dress and got a lot of compliments!!! Oh and I even had to have my dress taken in – it was too big when I tried it on…big win for me!!!

This was actually the second of three fundraisers I am attending this month, though the other two are through my husband’s work. The first one I also had to get all dressed up (that was the first week of May) and the final one is this coming week, but is a bit more casual and is in NYC – Brooklyn to be exact. I can’t wait for that one…I’ll share details about that next week!

    All these challenges are helping me fit my clothes much better, too, Kristin. Yay for a successful fundraiser and two 5Ks! 🙂
