Stepping in to step out

What do I wish to step into? That’s the Wednesday Wishcast for this week and never has my answer come so quickly... Why, it’s my very posh cocktail dress – which not only do I need to step into, but I have to do it up too! I have a black tie event on 9th November at a posh hotel in London and the frock I bought for meeting the Queen last year* is more than a little tight. Drastic action required my friends! Have already been on the South Beach Diet for two weeks but need to start the exercise regime. Wish me luck!


*Come on, if you’d met the Queen, you’d mention it at every available opportunity wouldn’t you?

In response to popular request - my meeting the Queen post!

  1. Wishing you the best of success in reaching your goal! Those first two week so South Beach are behind you, and hopefully it's getting easier now. You have a tremendous "pay off" with this black tie event ... and fitting into the pretty frock, ;). All the best, xoxo

  6. Yes! I'd brag about meeting the queen as well. You know how I bragged about meeting Prince Charles and blogged about it too!

    South Beach diet is a really good one. I'll bet you slip right into that dress for the November event~

  10. LOL I would certainly tell everyone I had met the Queen. "Hi, thanks for the casserole, I'm sure that the Queen, did I mention I met her, would have enjoyed your cuisine as well!" Seriously, how cool is it that you met the Queen!!!

    As Lisa wishes for herself, so do I also wish for her!

  11. My dh lost 60+ pounds by just cutting way back on bread. I no longer have potatoes, rice, or pasta for most meals. We only eat a meat or fish, a vegetable, and a large salad with lots of veggies in it. I also lost weight. We are both maintaining our weights doing this. Every Sunday after church we go out for dinner and eat anything we please.

    Yes, if I ever met the queen, I'd mention it loud and often.
