I am so excited that it is my SITS Day! For those that have no idea what that means, check out the SITS Girls site! This is a blogger’s dream come true! The SITS Girls truly are Irresistible!
I decided this weekend I needed to completely disconnect from the digital world and nurture my real-life relationships. I have been burning the candle at both ends and I was about to turn to dust. Great timing (insert sarcasm). I get an email from the SITS girls Friday evening that my blog is going to featured today. Because I decided to disconnect, I didn’t see all of this until this morning. Yayyy! but Wahhhh! I’m super excited but I didn’t have a chance to plan my featured post. I wanted to make a good first impression on you girls but I hope you still love me anyways!
More About Me
My name is Aimee but you can call me Mimi. I started this blog to talk about my love/hate relationship with weight. I’ve always struggled with weight. I’ve lost it, gained it, lost some more, gain it back, and I’m currently determined to get rid of it forever. This is a before/after at my highest and lowest weights to date.
I also talk about fashion, body image issues, my extreme addiction to icing, and becoming irresistibly you! I know what it’s like to not feel good about yourself. I want to help inspire/motivate other women to become irresistible and know that it is possible. I’ve been there…sometimes I catch myself going back and it’s ok. We aren’t perfect but together we can do this! Irresistible is a state of mind!
See, I told you I’m addicted to Icing! Even in the car . . .
I LOVE my Chihuahua, Chuy more than my husband at times. I mean, how can you resist that face?!?! And, he likes to sing!
I do love my husband though! We just got married last Halloween weekend, 10-30-10. It was the time of my life. I am obsessed with Halloween . . . So much, that we had a Masquerade Ball for our wedding reception! You can see more pics here. The after-party was all 80’s themed at a roof top oceanfront lounge. Boo Yow!
I’m a busy lady and I love it like that! I work full time as an instructional designer and I run a social media management business, Irresistible Media and run two blogs, Irresistible Icing (you are here now!) and Irresistible Pets.
Here are a few of my most popular posts you might be interested in!
I hope you stay around and we can become friends. I’m also on Facebook and Twitter @MyIcing. Or check out my About. Me profile to visit all my online homes! Make sure to say Hi and I’ll say Hi back!
Thanks again for stopping by and stay Irresistible!
“Every woman has the right to become Irresistible. Even if that means just throwing on a sexy pair of heels or wearing lip gloss. You can do it!”
Congrats on your SITS day and I love the icing face. I get that way too – just about chocolate!
Thanks Stephanie! Chocolate is probably in second place to icing for me! hehe. Thanks for stopping by!
Congratulations on being featured today! I completely understand about being busy – I’m going to have to force myself to do nothing next weekend, just so I can catch up. What a great idea to have a Masquerade Ball for your reception! My SIL is also obsessed with Halloween, and I recently posted some photos of her (heavily) decorated house (more to come soon).
Happy SITS day! I hear you on unplugging and nurturing real life relationships, good for you. 🙂
Thanks Holly! I would love to superwoman but have come to accept that’s not possible lol. Ohh, I wanna see those pics! I go a little crazy Halloween decorating too LOL!
Happy SITS Day Mimi! Hope it’s an awesome icing filled day. Can’t wait to read more. And so ironic that you the weekend you decide to unplug is when you get the SITS email. 🙂 Enjoy!
Happy SITS day. Love your honesty. Thanks for sharing your journey. Looking forward to reading more!
I’m loving your blog, Mimi! The design is sweet and so are you. So glad you had your SITS day. I look forward to reading more. I’m your newest follower, doll!
Congrats on your SITS day! I love that first pic with the red flower, so pretty! Have a great day 🙂
@Mama Mary – Seriously, the story of my life. LOL But, it all worked out 🙂
Thanks Dani. I just like to keep it real.
Aww, thanks Eve!!! xoxo
Thanks Charlene!!
Cheers to beauty through confidence and self love.
Happy SITS Day.
I am now following you on twitter via flgirlnewlife.
Happy SITS Day!!! What a nice surprise for you. I think you post is great considering you had no time to prepare:-) Sometimes surprises are better. Enjoy your day in the spotlight….and congrats on your marriage AND weight loss!!!
Happy SITS Day!! I’m so with you on unplugging, of course, the trouble comes when you plug back in and see everything you missed! But it really is worth it – I try to unplug for the weekend every so often and I find that I’m always more relaxed when I do. 🙂
Congrats on being featured today over at SITS! I can totally relate to this post… it feels good to know that I’m not alone. Going to go check out the rest of your blog!
I love the masquerade ball for your reception! I love those masks, and I’m starting to see them all over. I just can’t find a good occasion to wear them in every day life.
Happy SITS day. Hope you are having a great day. Your pictures are beautiful!
Congrats on your SITS day! I’m now following you and looking forward to exploring your blog! LOVE your doggie! Tucker (my YorkiePoo) sends Chuy puppy hugs!
Congrats on your SITS day. Love the concept of your blog, empowering women to let their true beauty shine. Good luck with the weight loss, I share the battle with you.

Happy SITS DAY hun! Glad you got your post up for it. 🙂 And yes, icing is soooo so good.
So are comments.

I always lick off the icing first…on cupcakes!
Never give up on your weight loss goals…I didn’t… and I lost 80lbs and have keep it off for 15 years…P.S. and I never gave up sweets while doing it…
xoxo
I’m new to SITS and also struggling with weight loss. But I have to say–you look great!

Great blog! Thanks for sharing! BTW, your smile is gorg!
Awesome idea to disconnect, but what an unfortunate weekend to do it. 🙁 I would totally do something like that… if I ever disconnected.
So glad you found out in time that it was your SITS day! I remember visiting you before – love your inspiring posts. I usually disconnect on weekends because it is the only time I really have with Alpha Hubby! Off to check out other posts now. HAPPY SITS DAY!
Happy SITS day ) and you sound just lovely. Really. 🙂 I wrote that I think you’re my long-lost twin.
What a cool idea for a wedding reception! 🙂
I completely understand your struggle with weight. I’m there now. I tell myself each day I’m going to start over tomorrow…only tomorrow doesn’t last very long!
What’s different about this time? This time I’m doing it to honor God in my body.
Much health and success to you in your journey.
What a fabulous email to wake up to this morning. Congrats on your SITS day!

Happy SITS day and I enjoyed getting to know you. Good luck with weight watchers. Great program.
Love this “I’m stuck somewhere between a rock hard body and a fat place.” I’ve struggled with my weight my entire adult life … and that’s a long time for me. I really like your attitude. We’d make great friends. You could eat the icing and I would eat the cake.
Yay, Mimi! Happy SITS Day! I love your sign-off…”Ciao, cupcakes!” Makes me feel like I’m having coffee with a good friend. I think I’m gonna really like it here! 🙂
Congrats for being the featured blogger at SITS!
Happy SITS day!!
Your anniversary is my birthday. That makes me like you even more. 😉 (I, too, am pretty obsessed with all things Halloween.) The masquerade ball is a beautiful theme! Love it.
Happy Sits Day! I love your blog. You’re so much fun! I love Halloween, too!
You are gorgeous! I’m not just saying that. Food is fun, but I totally think you’re smart to try to get healthy! I hope you find the perfect and healthy weight for you!
I totally get the push right now to be accepting and not judgemental of anyone for how they look! But I also think we personally know how we’re taking care of our bodies, and we need to keep our hearts and the rest of our organs in tip-top shape! So, You Go Girl!
Happy SITS day! Loving the blog, the dog and the GORGE wedding photo! 🙂
Mimi – I can tell you are awesome. And you are also beautiful no matter WHAT your weight. Take comfort in the fact that it’s a struggle for most of us. I love your wedding pic. So nice to meet you!!
Happy SITS day!! Enjoy it!
Happy SITS day! I’m going to crack open some icing & celebrate you 🙂
Happy SITS Day! I’m looking forward to reading more!
Happy SITS day! What a wonderful blog you have! Congrats on your weight loss efforts! Andvi live the idea of a masquerade ball for a wedding reception!
First- you are stunning. Really and truly.
Second, who doesn’t love icing? There must be some issue there.
Third- HAPPY SITS DAY!
Happy SITS day! I love your wedding picture! Such a unique idea, it looked like it was a blast! Wow, you are a busy lady! Keep up the amazing work!
Happy SITS day to you!!! Love that you had a masquerade reception! I hope that you had a great comment-love filled day.
Hope you had an awesome SITS Day! I love the confidence and energy you exude! I struggle with weight loss too and it’s such a bummer but the biggest motivation is when you see even a .1 difference in your weight. No high like that 🙂

Hi Mimi,
Stopping by from SITS, groovy blog you have here. You are a lovely person with a lovely anniversary. My boyfriend and I met the day before Hallowe’en in ’09. It’s a good day for love!

Hi Mimi, congratulations on your SITS day! I don’t get to make my rounds with SITS as often as I’d like, but I saw your feature come up on my feed and knew I just had to come by. I love your style, vibe and what you have going on here. I, too, am in an ongoing battle with my weight, love icing and baking, and am “Mama” to a chihuahua. Your wedding looks amazing! Happy early anniversary!
Off to enjoy some of your posts!
