Today I'm going shopping for the last of my christmas shopping, and also to get a b'day pressie for a friend who's having a party tonight

3 things I'm going to do for my happy body:

- Get an expensive haircut and loose perm like this: http://leightonmeesterfan.net/gallery/albums/photoshoots/russellbaer/005.jpg and this http://leightonmeesterfan.net/gallery/albums/projects/gossipgirl/promotional/season1/003.jpg
- Get a massage that's at least 30min long
- Get a professional makeup session

Congrats on moving to the maintenance section Madz, thats fantastic!

The pics look great, I would love my hair to look like that, I love the loose romantic curls.

What is a loose perm? How does it work and how much does it cost? I want my hair to look like that! Hehe.

Congrats again! And have fun at your party tonight!

Good on you Madz for becoming at peace with your body! You might even find now that your not focusing on it that your body may actually settle on a slightly lower weight. I always find that the harder I try, the more I weigh - the more I relax and eat consistently sensibly, that's when the weight comes off.

Once again, congrats for making your goal!

Hi Madz, I think it's fantastic that you have decided to be happy with your body the way it is. Enjoy your hair, make up and massage, sounds wonderful

Thanks everyone ♥♥♥

I am still in my pjs typing on my laptop after getting home at 3:30am last night. It was a lot of fun... oh and I had my first Jim Beam & coke but I think I still prefer Johnny Walker... just.

I haven't eaten anything yet (it's around 1:30pm) because I've been sorting through all my payslips and working out my expenses... and I seriously cannot believe how much I spend in a week... ON FOOD. Now I don't mind spending on 'stuff' so much (clothes, shoes, bags), as you can actually enjoy the things for more than a day, but food I should not be spending so much on. 30% of my paycheck goes to food (restaurants, cafes, lunch on work days, etc). Bad girl. Goes in the movies category for me- not worth it because it goes so fast and you never think about it again. Especially movies these days- they're all kind of the same, and they blend into one storyline (especially the Ben Stiller, Will Ferrell, Jack Black, Adam Sandler types).

Anyway, I have decided to have a day at home. I always vow to have days that I spend at home in front of the TV with a book and a cup of tea... but then I always get the urge to go out. But today I have willpower. I will RELAX and watch ridiculous amounts of daytime TV and enjoy today, because I have one massive mo-fo of a weekend coming up (I will be working starting from 7am over the next 4 days, and I have christmas parties over all of those nights). For once I will be praying for the parties to end early

WOW mads you are doing awesomely. Glad to hear you are happy with how your body is now You are such a beautiful gal!

I think those hairstyles/cuts look nice I would love long brown hair like that, mine is slowly growing.

Can't wait to hear how they go when you get it done
