Ok, its been a while, so time for an update. Just back from 2 weeks at the lake and SUN! OH MY...how I love sun. Had a great time with my family and visting all the fruit and veggie stands. Sounds crazy, but I was literally vibrating standing in the produce and just had to take in the sights and smells. I am a little nuts...yes.
I did have one bad habit on holidays, which I have quickly broken. Multigrain tortilla chips. Easy to grab, salty and crunchy. Not in my house now. Ate great otherwise...lots of bbq and wonderful veggies and fruit. I got on the scale when I got home scared..but no worries - the weight stayed the same.
We walked into some beautiful waterfalls and I led the pack....kicking butt and not even breathing hard...yeah me.
Some pictures I took on holidays I look crappy in, thus I realize some clothes I bought just don't look good on me. Funny concept, but reality. I will sleep in these shirts from now on.
My body is tan and I look healthy...and am healthy. All is wonderful on the health front. I did notice that by not taking my regular vitamins for 2 weeks made a difference, but back on them again now.
I did get more attention from men on the beach and although its a nice thing, I am still not comfortable with the whole idea...maybe in time.
Some funny things still....I still think I am the fat girl. Still have to think before I sit in a lawn chair (ie: weight restrictions), still have to selectively choose my seat in a speed boat (you have to balance out a boat), still wonder if I will fit in certain areas...and then have to give my head a shake.
I still look at some people and wonder if I am that size, or bigger or smaller. I still grab a large off the clothes rack...maybe one day these things will change, maybe not.
Life is good. Now at work for 3 weeks, then off to University for a week in the city and then 2 more weeks of holidays. So I will be checking in when I can. Have to get as much sun as I can before fall hits. Planning on Hawaii again in January - 2 weeks of sun, sand and a 2 piece suit.
I tried to catch up on everyones news, sorry if I missed some. Until later.....
