Dick Francis Marathon and Running Back Into Shape
I received four Dick Francis books today that I had reserved from the library. Yay! I'm on a quest to read all of his novels. I love his stories. Mysteries that are all related somehow to the horse racing world. I don't think I have that much more to go.
You know the old joke about the camera adding 10 pounds and someone asking "So exactly how many cameras were pointed at you?" Yeah, that applies to me. I videotaped Marc and Wei's shower and I saw myself with a double chin! How mortifying! How horrendous! How the hell did that happen? I haven't worked out in 2 weeks because I got REALLY busy and still am, what with planning parties, people moving in and out, etc. Dammit. Time to look at the Victoria's Secret website again in hopes of inspiration.
When you're skinny you don't even really think of weight or food. You just eat what you want. And I'm talking about really skinny. You knew you were just too skinny and you'd accidentally complain about it while your friends just stared at you in disbelief and disgust. Imagine complaining about being too skinny! ok, the "you" is really me. And my arms were as thin as my wrist. While I still wouldn't wish that upon myself now, I miss the days of eating junk food, drinking soda, and gobbling down food without worry.
You know it's getting bad when you start getting back folds when you wear a tight bra and stand up super straight. Ugh. Really, it's time to get back on the Firm. Next week. After everyone moves in. This I promise me. I've gotta stop the flab in its tracks before it gets any worse. Next week, I promise. I have to log on to victoriassecret.com again. Not like this weather is any good for bikinis yet anyway. But still. For my health. And ok, I do want to look good. I will I will I will.
" Will she or won't she? Will the flab win or will vanity prevail? Stay tuned! "
