Well, I decided that even though the fatness continues, I can still put WAY more effort into my appearance. I'm going to be the best fatty I can be. To wit: I have purchased (from Target) and implemented Crest Whitestrips AND a fancy Olay skincare regimen. Perhaps my shiny head will distract others from the hot mess below. I have noticed that using the Whitestrips interrupts key gorging times during my day, so this helps somewhat. Maybe I'll just continue using them until my teeth are radioactive, and I can fit into my college jeans. I also got my hair cut, but I'm not sure it was actually an improvement. But, they massaged my head, so it's totally worth it. From Kohl's, I have purchased a handful of items that actually fit me (don't even ask the size- I could puke). Kohl's, I tell you. Swank! As this shopping spree took place the evening before our season-opening game, most of my new garments are "burnt orange". Now, this is not a color one normally stumbles across outside of the UT coop store, so I am enjoying the feeling that not only am I school spirited, but I am also (accidentally) actually wearing a current color. Oh, you know, it's in all the fall lines... Chaps, Dana Buchman, Sonoma. It's white hot.
In hormonal news, I only really had that one wretched day, so maybe this pill will work out after all. Anyway, it's an improvement. I'm hoping that if I feel more positive overall, I might actually be motivated to make some sort of real change. Oh- I did switch from coffee creamer to 1% though. Look out Nicole Ritchie. I saw in the Target ad that M&Ms are on sale. Cute, holiday-themed discount chocolate. Damn them! I must resist!
And here's a little nugget just for fun: All 3 kids have diarrhea. Little J started Thursday, and the fun just keeps on comin'. Nothing says "brand new me" like being up to your elbows in poop.
LAST DAY OF KINDERGARTEN :(

Alright, pony up on the fancy Olay skin care regimen. Does everyone have a regimen but me? Sigh. There are just too many options. Lemme know how that goes, m'kay?
ReplyDeleteAnd yay for new clothes, but burnt orange? You know how I feel about that.
For me the jury is still out on the nuva ring.
And peanut holiday M&Ms are fine. They have PROTEIN, right?
Oh yeah, luv those whitestrips. Just don't go Ross day glow white teeth on us.
ReplyDeleteIf it makes you feel any better of the 8 pounds that just fell off when I gave up sugar, well, 5 of those are back. Funny how that works, eh, especially considering I ate three cookies yesterday from Panera.
Yay for new clothes--I'm so impressed with your shopping outing.
