Free to be Me!
Do you ever feel like the "real" you is trapped inside a body that couldn't possibly be yours? I'm young (okay not chronologically but I FEEL young), I'm adventerous and free spirited and wanna look the way I feel. Instead I'm buying my clothes in the plus size section of WalMart desperately searching for something that isn't "stretch", "forgiving" or reminiscent of something my mother used to wear. :yikes: Ack!!! How did I get to be so darn frumpy!! Well, that's just got to change. My 13 year old and I belong to a waterski show team and I am determined that this time next year. I WILL be one of the girls in the ballet line and I WILL learn how to swivel ski and I WON'T have to have the costumer make an "extra large" for the one and only fat lady on the team. I AM going to get my butt to that 6:00 am spinning class three days a week and I AM going to balance my fat tush on the pilates ball two days a week and I AM going to waterski on the weekends even if I don't resemble all the other size 6 teenage girls. I'm a grown woman and I can do whatever I want. Who says that fat chicks should stay on the sidelines. Who cares what other people might think. I don't. I'm doing this for ME!
I feel better now. Thanks for letting me share :)
