A Tucked in Shirt and Belted Waist
I don’t want to be Dara Torres (it would be nice but come on.) I don’t want to be Madonna (yes I do.) I accept that the hot bodies displayed on television or magazine covers are totally unrealistic. I’m not an idiot and my self-esteem is okeedokee. In fact I just checked the dip stick and we’re good.
Yes I want health and that has become the main goal of my food choices and exercise. I’m nearly 40 and that mantra has soaked in just fine. Health not weight. Kay? Heck when even the Cathy cartoon starts eating for health it’s pretty clear that crash dieting had to go. So the funky diets are gone and I have embraced the goal of good health.
But I do have some vanity. My vain desire is this: I want to tuck in my shirt and then finish the look with a belt. I think that’s a reasonable goal. This was once a good look for me. See the picture. That was Spring Break 1990 in Daytona Beach.
I know I can’t look like that again.. for crying out loud I was 20. But I should be able to get to a point that I can tuck in my blouse and wear a belt. Right? Right?
Oh and if you were on Daytona Beach in 1990 and you whistled at me. Thank you. I’m holding on to that right now.
I think my goal is realistic… what’s your realistic goal?
It’s good to see someone admit there is some vanity involved in wanting to be thin. I want to look good, darnit! I want to feel my husband’s eyes checking me out.
if i saw you on the beach at spring break, i’d be like whos that hot chick with the dialog balloon for a face?
let’s ask her if she wants to hit our keg and maybe make out
furiousballs last blog post..Yeah, I’m doin’ the drywall up there at the new McDonald’s
Just last night I made copies of a picture of myself about 50 pounds lighter and left the copies laying around the house… including one inside the fridge!!… to motivate myself to make healthier, smaller food choices so that I can lose this weight I have gained.
One-hundred pounds in five years…erm…four years, now.
One little unrealistic goal? I want to run again…without worrying I’ll shatter my feet, ankles, and knees in doing so.
Shade and Sweetwater,
K
Kyddryns last blog post..Oh, Help
Wannabeskinny – I think a little vanity can be a good motivator. So can a little Appolonia.
furiousBall – Rock on!
Sarah – I’m not sue if I should put fat pics up or skinny ones.
Kyddryn – First we walk.. then we run and then we toast and thats where furiousBall comes in again. He’s got a keg.

Kiki – I did the skinny pic… I see the fat pic everytime I look in the mirror!!! My hope is the skinny pic will remind me that I really don’t need that snack so that I can try to look like that again. We will see if it will work…
I want inner thigh muscles again. Is that strange? I
could be working on them instead of drinking a glass of
wine and reading all the blogs in my reader right now.
I also want to run a 5K. Hell, I want to run to the end
of my street without passing out.
This is Kiki…
Okay so skinny pic it is…
And Candace that is not strange at all! I rana 5K once a long time ago. I think it’s a great goal.
My goal is to gradually get down to healthy range bmi, achieve my black belt in taekwondo and continue my martial arts training. self improvement is my goal.
