Just a funny story from this weekend - I figured you WISHers could relate as well as anyone.
As you can see, I crossed the 40 pound mark this weekend - and am now 3 pounds from my original goal weight, and 8 from my updated goal weight. WOOOHOOO!!!
I've had so much fun shopping for cute clothes, and to make that even more fun, I've been dating a guy for about 3 months now (met him at my brother's wedding). So, of course, feeling a bit more sure of myself, I've been delving into the more feminine side of things, and getting those fun "girl" clothes..... I'm still a bit casual, but I've found a lot of cute T-shirts, pants, jackets, etc. When I go out, for the first time in my life, I spend time picking out the perfect outfit, doing my hair, and now applying make-up (a new venture for me since he started hanging around).
Fast forward to Saturday .. he is a tournament fisherman, and has a big tourney in a couple of weeks. In preparation for that, he pre-fishes the lake so he knows whats happening before the tournament. This is the first time Ive gotten to pre-fish with him. Fun stuff! Anyway, Saturday was cold and windy, and Im out in the boat with him I have a sweatshirt and jeans on. The sweatshirt is about 10 times too big for me, I have my hair up in a ponytail to keep it from getting too tangled while were zipping around the lake. Weve been moving about the lake for approximately 7 hours now, and my hair is a wreck . It has this horrible habit of separating and looking nasty greasy every time I get in a wind like that (motorcycles, boats, etc). My bangs especially are just hanging there in strings . Im wet from the splashing, my eye makeup has migrated beyond its parameters, my lips are blue because Im chilled, and my face is beet red from the sun (of which there was none how do you get sun burned on a cloudy day??) He looks at me from across the boat, and says You are so cute. HELLO???? Keeping in mind that this is the first time hes said this to me, my thoughts at that time were .. Youre kidding me, right???
Why do I try so hard when a sweatshirt and ponytail will do just fine???
