A New Me
Hey girlz!
My newest read is: Thin Is the New Happy: a memoir by Valerie Frankel--she touches on an entirely different weight issue while growing up than Jennette F in Half-Assed. It is interesting to see how different they both grew up. I'm not far into it so I be interested to see how her experience varies.
Last night I was talking to a good friend--it occurred to me for the first time in my life, not far from my heaviest weight ever, I no longer identify myself as a fat girl. My new identity has become a mini-marathon (wogger).
It was an epiphany--I'm just Shauna. This is such unchartered territory for me.....
A couple of weeks ago I stepped out of my "comfort zone" of hell (my current job) and actually applied for a new position. Tomorrow is my initial interview. So far I have been really calm about it--hopefully it stays like that.
Take Care! (I am still w/o laptop--so you'll probably hear from me once a week)
