Before After

I'm still around! Plus other random thoughts

OK, ok, I know! It's been days! DAYS! I spent the whole weekend cleaning house... it REALLY needed it. bleh. And work has been crazy. Also, I think Serena gave me her sore throat though, because I have been popping cough drops and sucking down tea all morning. This better not get any worse, or it will be your head, Serena! I have been thinking about you all though, and should have some time to get around to visit you all today.

I tried some bathing suits on this weekend... and was not as horrified with myself as I used to be. We are leaving for vacation in 2 and a half weeks, so I will need to get something before then, but I am trying to wait as long as possible. I have a really long torso, so it is hard for me to find a tankini that fits the way I want it too, and I don't think I am emotionally or physically ready to wear a bikini in public. But I don't want a one piece, so this could get interesting.

I noticed a couple days ago that I have the dreaded tanning bed "stripe". Meaning that my sides are not as tan as my stomach and back. Let me just tell you how Klassy that is. I tanned on my side yesterday... which defeats the pourpose of tanning imo, which is just as much about relaxing as it is for getting golden. Oh the sacrafices we make for beauty! LOL

Anyone know anything about lipotropics? You all know I am pretty against diet pills, but I had been weaseled into buying a bottle with some during a short lived stint at Pure Fitness by an overbearing trainer that reminded me a little too much like AC Slater, and I noticed them about a week ago. My very limited research has said they are herbal, and as far as I can see on the bottle they don't have any "uppers" in them. They expire this summer and I hate to waste the $20 I spent on them, but I don't want to screw myself down the line either. Internet, your thoughts?

So that's alls I gots right now. I'm working on anther post, hopefully I'll get that up later today... and WI tommorow. I really want to get to the -50 mark by the time we leave for vacation, and it looks like I am going to make it! Now I am off to visit all my buddies... have a great day!

Comments to this post:

stripes!

Well, my stripes aren't bad.  I do tend to lie on my side and then every now and then I upgrade to the bigger bed where the bulbs come up higher.  Does your salon have one of those?

50 down!

CONGRATS on 50 down ! WOOHOO!

 

Pills: personally, I'd chuck them. Good luck whatever you decide though.

And yay for cleaning the house - lots of calories gone that way I hope :)

Have a great week!
