Default Feel Good Factor

Whilst we were away we hired a speed boat and the guy handed over a life jacket I looked at it and thought it was Sean's and passed it on. The guy then handed Sean and Steve kid sized life jackets and gave me mine back.

I took one look and thought I was going to go through the embrassing process of asking for a larger one, because the jacket was definatley a normal sized one and not out sized it fitted.

IT FITTED LIKE A GLOVE

I was so happy . Was a good feeling when my brother asked for a larger one as he couldn't fasten his - didn't laugh have been there so many times myself, but it made me feel good.

Then on Sunday I was doing a 3 mile race for charity, you could walk, run or jog - your choice. So I was walking with friends and we decided to jog for a little bit and we ended up jogging on and off around the course, was great fun.

Was even better that my sister who is 10 years younger and at least 3 stone lighter than me couldn't keep up. Again I didn't laugh, but I felt so good. Have obviously done some good to my fitness levels over the last year.


Then my neighbour asked me if I'd lost weight, as she could see a diferrence.

If I could bottle the way these events have made me feel and sell it I would make a fortune.
