The mad hatter.

Posted by: getupnow In: General

A’ight, here is the hat. And the new jeans. And the shirt. So add that $200 pair of Frye harness boots to this and it would be my total dream outfit, although the jury is still out on the hat. Not sure I have the confidence to wear a hat. But anyway, had to take a pic of the back of the shirt to reveal its complete awesomeness. It is rockin’ the rhinestones, bedazzled style, in the shape of a fleur de lis. And these jeans would be the size 8 low rise levis that I bought after I bought the 10’s. The 8’s fit, but worsen the muffin-toppage dilemma. In this pic, am seriously sucking it in. And I will clarify why size 8’s fit someone who weighs 148 pounds. I have no ass. There. There it is. I said it. And low rise jeans do not have to accomodate my massive waist, which is my problem area. Now, I would rather stop here. Just with the new pics. But in case there may be ANYONE who needs a little encouragement today, below you will find yet another “before pic”. I threw on some text to make myself a “I heart 3FC” shirt, because this place is awesome.

 

And below, the before pic.  :cry:

So about my day: only had time for a 3.1 mile run today which took 35:45. It was just meh. It was a little too hot by the time I was able to get to the track. I think that was what made it just meh. Breakfast and lunch were the norm.  Dinner was chicken floured and fried in a T of oil, green beans, rosemary grilled potatoes, 50 calories worth of gravy for the chicken and pumpkin/yogurt. Calories were 1,331. I really, really like this calorie amount. I feel so much more full. It was just stupid to do days of 1,000 - 1,100. Stupid.  And now I don’t seem to think about food as much because my belly gets FULL. My weight was 148 this morning.

 I think I will run again tomorrow since my run wasn’t as long today. Maybe I can go when it is cooler. And also I NEED adequate sleep tonight. I get stuck in this habit of staying up late just to get in a few hours of down time for myself. I gawk at stuff online and listen to music and flip through the channels. Everyone is asleep then and it is so nice to have time totally to myself. But I need sleep. Last night I probably got less than six hours because once I finally went to bed, I didn’t sleep well. Could have had something to do with feeling meh about my run today.

LOVE IT!!!! Love the hat… and the face with the attitude going with it!! See, the ass is my problem. Sir Mix A Lot was talking about me when he penned Baby Got Back. I have 16s I can get into, and I have 16’s that I can tell would fit around my waist, but tight on my derriere. I need to figure out a way to make it smaller!!

Oh, and I TOTALLY understand about your husband and beans. My husband is the EXACT same way!! HOWEVER, after 12 years of marriage, I know what I can and cannot get away with. Chickpeas, I can normally get away with. Refried beans and kidney beans, yes. Black beans, lentils…. NO WAY IN HELL.
