Key words there... I had. To weigh. Myself.
This is a much cuter face than I probably made. Pic from here.
Now, I know that I am not fat. But, I am not skinny, either. My weight fluctuates like every other girl, but I have never been one to really worry about it. I mean, as a girl, I do think about it, but never obsessively. I want my cute outfit to look good, and I want to be attractive (I mean, hello?! I am 27, and time is ticking to find a man. Wait... did I really just say that?! I guess I did. And, let's be honest, there really is no rush. ;) ha, oh, Jen..).
Anyway... I just feel... gross. Ya know? Not comfortable in your own skin, clothes fit just a little differently kind of gross. I have been basically celebrate-eating (ya know, when you have someone visiting, or you just got a new promotion and you go out to eat!) for the last 3 weeks, b/c 1) I am back in the states and have access to good food all of the time, and 2) I am here visiting my bro, and we always go out and eat good things when I visit. Oh, and 2 vacations back to back before leaving Honduras. So, it makes sense. :) But, I think it's catching up with me. And, the inactivity.
I have never been into exercise. Ok, I swam practically my whole life up until college, and worked in a hospital where I was walking constantly, and then in Honduras where I had to walk over a Km to the clinic everyday, and everywhere else for that matter... but that's lifestyle. I have tried the joining a gym, getting a personal trainer thing... and I don't stick with it. I know, I know. Judge me all you want. But, it's just not something I really enjoy. Yes, everyone says that exercise kind of grows on you and then you learn to enjoy it. But, I just don't think it works for me like that. I do well when I don't know it's exercise! My mind and body have to be tricked... and then it's good all around.
So, I say all of this because... well, because it was on my mind. I need to start doing something a little more active, and a little less eating. But, what? Maybe going for long walks? Trying not to snack as much? I dunno... something. Something that will work for me. Especially because I will be traveling and road tripping all over the place very, very soon. And, I don't have extra money to buy new Fall clothes! ha... motivation?
¡Vamos a ver!
