Bitter Sweet Weather

It's July 20th. I've been to my pool ONCE. Once. Because the weather has been absolute CRAP. So..this has given me an excuse to eat like the weather....CRAPPY! I'm pretty sure i've been taken advantage of this and i've been using it as an excuse, but on some level i'm a little happy when I have to tell my son "sorry honey, the pool's closed cause it's raining"...or..."it's too windy sweety" -- truth is..the freaking pool is heated!!! and it's not THAT cold...there were a couple times i could have brought him..there i admit it.

Over the last week..i've indulged in vietnemese pad thai and a huge piece of chocolate cake from Boston Pizza..not to mention the chinese food takeout..and then chinese takeout for lunch the next day...OH and i forgot the margharitas..sangria's....burgers..doritos...olive bread with asiago cheese x10 and that tiramisu and keylime pie...oh and left over food from my son's plate ALL THE TIME.

Back to the lean cuisines for punishment...today's incoming nutrigrain bar and weight watchers meal with a diet coke!!! BORING. Id rather have some olive bread and asiago cheese dip..mmm

Soooooooo....................

Wow...this is embarassing. My last post was June 9th....June 9th!!! I did it AGAIN..what i said I wouldn't do. I wanted to never say again..again and here I am saying it again!

Time to whip myself back into shape. This morning I dropped off my son at my mom's house...for some reason she found it necessary to tell me that I had lost A LOT OF WEIGHT..Really? A Lot? How can that be since my bodies dimensions have not changed and if they had it's only for the bigger?
I've been afraid of the scale since moving out on my own and now I'm too scared that my scale obsession with frustrate my mornings like it used to.

Yes it's true..I was obsessed with the scale. A half pound difference used to make me do squats in the shower and I would weigh myself on two scales because one of them was a little bit more forgiving..especially on my "bloated" days.

More than likely..i did NOT lose A LOT of weight! or any at all. I am just wearing a well fitted outfit! and I always toy with the fact of buying my own personal scale...i haven't made my decision yet. To buy or not to buy a weight scale???????

So....my pool opened and i've been down there once. As I strip down to my bathing suit..i position myself accordingly to make sure not one person can see me from unforgiving angles! AGAIN..I ask...what's it like to put on a bathing suit and not worry about feel self concious! I will get there..I will I will...

New fellow blogger....a new inspiration to get off the couch! I wanna run 8K..can you teach me?
