Blech.
I feel sick. I’m done fooling around. I think I’ve finally eaten myself silly (”eaten myself stupid” might be more appropriate).
I took measurements last night. Remember when the ideal woman’s figure in the old days was said to be 36-24-36? Uh huh … well, I’m EXTRA ideal–more like 47-41-51. And my thighs are 8 inches bigger than my WAIST was when I graduated from high school! Wow. Hard to imagine I was ever that tiny.
I had myself convinced that it was never going to be possible to make my thighs look good no matter how much I worked out, until I saw Sandrelle’s Before & After photos. Wow, huh? What an awesome job she’s done.
I’m glad she posted all those. One never knows who’ll be inspired by something we put out there, embarrassing as it might seem.
So tomorrow’s The Big Day–I’m going back to the gym. On a Saturday, no less. Now that the fooling around is over and the real work is staring me in the face, it’s a bit scary. I’m not sure why … I’ve done it before and know I can do it, even better this time … but still, it’s scary.

I think i’m on my third restart since i began blogging.

OMG I couldn’t believe Sandrelle’s before and after pics. Thanks so much for posting them. It gives me hope that after I get my weight off I can look good again. Not sure I’ll ever look that good though! lol. I’m reading your blogs so keep on postin’.
