It's a book, yes. But it's also what I will be,without fail, this summer. I'm not sure what happened but all of a sudden, I became sick of how I looked. I'm not fat. I'm not ugly. I'm tall, pretty, and sexy as hell (LOL). But I am truly about 30 lbs overweight. Thank buddah I'm tall because most people think that there's no way I could lose that much (or else they are all just fucking liars afraid of being real....which is a possibility also) but they don't see me naked, and they don't know how I can look. But I do and I know.
Today was the start of a revamp! A beauty makeover of sorts. hee hee Aging has proved me to be somewhat vain. I hate to admit that but I am not doing so well with the whole aging thing. And it doesn't help when HE points out all the gray hairs I seem to acquire daily! (Yes, I know HE loves me despite my hair color....but this is all about how I feel about myself.)
So, phase one: bleaching the teeth. I have great teeth but I think this American diet really takes its toll on slight discoloration....oh, and you are nobody if you don't have sparkly teeth. (It's an ugly American trait to want to keep up with the cool kids in town.)
Phase two: I actually, for the first time in my 44 years, died my hair with grocery store color. And it's pretty awesome. No more grays....at least for a few weeks anyway.
Phase three: Drop 30 lbs. This one will be the hardest as I love, love, love food. Sorry Carnalis, I may have to not read your blog so often because it inspires me so often. ;) And it is serious foreplay when we share a meal. HE loves food as much as I do and we do not hold back if we are in the mood to try something delicious.
Hopefully you won't mind if I blog sometimes about my struggles and my successes with this transformation. Who knows, maybe I'll even post before and after photos....
Day one is almost over. It wasn't that hard to adhere to the plan, but I found myself a little bit hungry this evening. So I ate a little bit more than the 600 calories allowed, but lettuce and chicken doesn't seem like a bad alternative if I overate.
