FAB FRIDAY ... Zombie Sweet Valley High Wedding Edition!

It's time for another installment of FAAAAAB FRIDAY DAY DAY DAY DAY DAY ...

1. BMI, BODY FRAME, AND SOME SWEET VALLEY HIGH REFERENCES! Let's talk about the BMI theory of weight loss for a second. Usually it is MAD JANK because it does not account for different body frames and muscle mass in athletes or bone loss in older people. However, you CAN make it work for you if you're not old and you are a couch potato like me!  Hooray!  What you do is you calculate your body frame by calipering your elbow bones and then comparing them to a chart. Find out how to do that here! If you have a small body frame, you want to add ten percent to your BMI.  If you have a medium body frame, your BMI is probably fine.  If you have a large body frame, you want to subtract ten percent.  I have a large body frame, so I multiply .9 to my BMI to get my real BMI. I made it work for me!  My ideal weight, then, instead of being 130 lbs is now 145.  This is cool because at 130 lbs I'm a freaking size 2, but at 145 I'm a perfect size 6, just like the Wakefield twins!  We know the Wakefield twins don't weigh no 145 lbs.  That's Robin Wilson and Lois Waller territory, guys. 



2. ZOMBIE BRIDES? My wedding is in less than two weeks!  Wow!!!  I'm having a Hallowedding at the courthouse. I have decided I'm not going to dress in a Halloween costume but I'll try to capture others doing that if I see them. :) LONG LIVE ZOMBIE BRIDES ... or Long Undead Zombie Brides because they're not alive?



3. KITTY ATTACK! So, the last few weeks my kitten has become a tearing machine.  She has poked holes in our screen door, scratched my face to bleeding, and ripped some of my comforters.  I finally girded my loins and clipped her tiny claws.  Life is so much better!  Her paws are like little cotton balls smacking my face when she tries to wake me in the morning.  I can sleep in!



4. NEW SCALE! After my other scale broke the same day I started this blog, along with my digital camera, I wasn't able to continue my "like a pregnant lady" updates with photos and survey.  But!  Last night I got a weight watchers scale on sale!  Ech, I've gained two pounds though. Now I need a nice digital camera to take goofy "look how huge my belly is" photos!



5. MY FRIEND DAVID IS COMING OVER TONIGHT! We are going to watch Zooey Deschanel movies with NO SHAME WHATSOEVER.
