Living a Life Fueled by Healthy Food and Fitness
I’m on anti-nausea medication.
And I couldn’t be happier.
I’m marrying the man of my dreams tomorrow!!!
My name is Julie and I am a full-time blogger, new mama, fitness enthusiast (certified personal trainer and group exercise instructor) and food fanatic (mostly healthy... but also not-so-healthy) living in North Carolina with my husband, dog and baby boy. Thank you for visiting Peanut Butter Fingers! I hope you enjoy little glimpses into my life and have fun trying the sweaty workouts I frequently share and making some of my favorite recipes along the way!
Love your positive attitude! If anything, I think it’s particularly touching that you’ll be pledging your love to each other in the midst of a minor health issue.
Ten days before her wedding, my good friend was hospitalized with a serious issue and very quickly lost 15lbs that she did not need to lose. She was already at her wedding site, six hours from her fiance. When he heard she was in the hospital, he hopped in the car with their dog in the middle of the night and headed up to see her. While driving, he was hit by a drunk driver. Luckily, he and the dog survived, but they broken bones (the dog broke a let, the fiance broke his arm and had severe bruising to his face). They got married as scheduled, she in a gown that was now swimming on her, and he with the sling he earned trying to make sure she was okay, and it was honestly the most touching, beautiful ceremony watching them commit themselves to one another after such recent turmoil. Six years and one set of boy/girl twins later, they are still so happy together 🙂
HAVE FUN TOMORROW!! You will be amazingly gorgeous no matter what 🙂
WOW- what a story!
Seriously! That is touching. I now have tears in my eyes.
Just remember Sex and the City…Charolette and Harry’s wedding. Pink eye just got you to your silver year 🙂 Way to have a positive outlook! Have a wonderful day tomorrow!!
feel better! you’ll be married tomorrow & none of this will matter! love your positivity!
I think I would be in my bed crying. Need to follow your example in staying positive!
Have a beautiful day tomorrow. It is so exciting that you’re getting married! I can’t wait to marry the love of my life (which I’m lucky enough to have found *knock on wood*).

I’ve never left a post on this blog before-I’ve been reading it since about August-but I just wanted to let you know that even though I haven’t met you personally, I feel like I know you in a way and I honestly wish the best for you and Ryan in your marriage. Hope you feel better soon!
I’ve never posted before either but I’ve been reading your blog every day for the past few months.
So sorry that you had to get sick, but I’m amazed by how positive you are about it. Congratulations and have an awesome, memorable day tomorrow 🙂 can’t wait to read about it!
Great outlook! Sorry you aren’t feeling 100% 🙁 Enjoy every moment and have a great day! Congratulations!!!
Wow, what a combo!! I’ve been reading your blog since you started (basically) and know you’ve been waiting for this day for a long time! Enjoy every minute of it, and I wish you and Ryan all of the best =) I know everything will be perfect! Congratulations!
You will be beautiful despite it all. Besides if you can have a great wedding while dealing with all that you can handle anything! Good Luck, get som rest, and have fun!!!
You’re only given as much as you can handle right? 🙂 You will be a beautiful bride no matter what!! Someday you will look back and laugh, I promise!
Oh my! Best of luck and congratulations! (Thank goodness this is a digital era and your photographer can fix up any tiny spots of pink in your pretty eyes!!) As always, I’m so excited for you like you’re a ‘real’ friend! CONGRATS!!!!
This is the first time I am posting after reading along for awhile because I just wanted to say good luck and I hope you feel beautiful tomorrow , because Ryan will certainly think so and that’s all that matters! Congratulations on getting married, you’ll have lifetime to look back on this together and laugh!
Congrats Julie! Marrying the man of your dreams is what it’s all about! Pink eye and food poisoning just add to the memories and make your stories that much better! CHEERS!
aw! Well feel better! And congrats!
I couldn’t resist adding to all of your well-wishes. You are one of my favorite bloggers! I agree with Jamie, you are going to have one memorable day 🙂 and will have a blast no matter what!
From your pharmacist: Buy Visine for red eyes. It won’t help your pink eye but it will temporarily reduce the redness by constricting blood vessels.
HAPPY WEDDING!
So sorry you had to deal with feeling sick 🙁 But you’ll be STUNNING tomorrow & your groom and you will be amazing <3. REALLY good tip for pink eye: get clear eyes red eye relief drops (the kind that stoners use all day haha) and use just a little while before the wedding. It will eliminate the redness that pink eye causes; just don't use it all day because it could irritate your eye more. I hope your stomach settles and regardless of any eyeball situation you will look gorgeous!!!!
Julie,
I have been a silent reader for awhile now, but I feel I have to speak up today. I got married earlier this year and after however many months of praying that everything would be perfect on our wedding day (and netti-potting, vitamin c, etc.), I had a horrible cold, barely had a voice, and was hopped up on Sudafed on our January wedding day. But despite all of that, it was easily the best day of my life. You will be a beautiful bride tomorrow when you begin your new life as a married woman! Take it all in and enjoy every moment! And feel better- as long as you’re doing your eyedrops and taking your nausea pills, you should be doing much better by tomorrow. Warm compresses to your eyes should help too!
Congrats!
You have agreat attitude! I hope you feel better real soon! You will have a wonderful wedding! Congratulations to you and Ryan!
I hope you feel better!!! ENJOY tomorrow!! Can’t wait to hear all about it and see pictures : )))
Happy wedding Julie! I hope everything will be more amazing than you ever imagined! Looking forward to reading all about your special day, congratulations!!!! 🙂
I hope you are feeling better.
If it makes you feel better I have a ruptured blood vessel in my eye the day of the wedding but its was an incredible day anyways.
You ‘ll be a beautiful bride and wishing you both all the best for the day!
Aww, I hope you feel much better by tomorrow. And even if you don’t, it’ll make a great story. : )
Congratulations Julie!! You will be a beautiful bride! Enjoy tomorrow! 🙂
Julie I’m crossing my fingers that you will be all better tomorrow! I’ve followed you since you started this blog, and wish you nothing but the best! Have an amazing day tomorrow 🙂
Congrats to you and Ryan!!! What a great outlook – tomorrow is really about you two and celebrating with the people who love you. Nothing can change that!!
I am routing for you Julie! I read your blog all the time and I truly hope you have a wonderful wedding!!!!
Hello, best attitude ever!!! 🙂
You just have to laugh. Life is hilarious and if you can’t laugh at it, then you’re not living. Besides…your eye will match those fabulous shoes! 🙂

All of those things are little steping stones towards the best day of your life! Hope you have an amazing day tomorrow and congratulations to you and Ryan!
