Yankee, you didn't come across as flip or whiny at all. You came across as someone who's insecure when all her friends are tiny. And you know what? If we were all 110 lbs, wouldn't this be a boring world?

I hope you got your behind out and had a total blast!!!! You show those itty bitty things how to have a good time.

And LOL at Hermi. If y'all need me to help drill it in to your heads that we are all beautiful, in our own ways, and that having a positive self-image makes you even MORE beautiful, then... well, I accept!!! :-)

Yankee

If it's any comfort, I've sure you'd intimidate and make me feel insecure, Yankee! Take care, have fun, and don't let anything get in the way of enjoying your life!

I know what you tell yourself
Look in the mirror, what does it show?
I hear you counting
I know you're adding up the score
I know what you tell yourself

Ever since Eden we're built for pleasing
Everyone knows
And ever since Adam cracked his rib and let us go
I know, oh yes I know
What you tell yourself

Who taught you how to lie so well and to believe in each and every word you say?
Who told you that nothing about you is all right...
It's just no use, it's just no good, you'll never be OK?

Well I know that wrong's been done to you
"It's such a tough world," that's what you say
Well I know it's easier said than done
But that's enough girl, give it away

(You) tell yourself that you're not pretty
Look at you, you're beautiful
Tell yourself that no one sees plain Jane, invisible me
Tell yourself you'll never be like the anorexic beauties in the magazines
Like a bargain basement Barbie doll, no belle du jour, no femme fatale
Just tell yourself

Tell yourself there's nothing worse than the pain inside, the way it hurts
But tell yourself it's nothing new
Cause everybody feels it too, they feel it too

-------------
This is one of my favorite songs. Natalie Merchant. "Tell Yourself."

It's the line "Tell yourself that you're not pretty ... Look at you, you're beautiful" that's speaking to me right now.

Yankee! Don't forget the rest of it... "Tell yourself you'll never be like the anorexic beauties in the magazines". But you're beautiful so why would you want to?

BTW, forgot yesterday's workout:

I've been so bad this week about exercising. I will be better this week and exercise more than 2 times. I was good today because I did not eat any popcorn at the movies and that is big for me! LOL

Me, yesterday: 20 minute walk
Me, today: 45 minute walk

Mamie, if you have a Whole Foods market near you, check out Glad Corn. It's like a cross between popcorn and corn nuts and is absolutely delish! I turned my neighbor on to it, and she's gonna start taking it to the movies instead of popcorn! All natural and very yummy!

Here's an article about Spinning for anyone who's ever wondered what the heck I'm doing 4-5 times a week.

Some of my instructors, including the owner of the gym, have been encouraging me to start Spinning orientation to eventually teach part-time. I just may...

Oh, Yankee, you should go for it. About 10 years ago, I used to daydream about getting certification as a fitness instructor, but never pursued it. It would be a great achievement for you!

Me, today = 110 minutes (hill, walk, stretch)

TF07 = 4,760 minutes

I am embarrased to admit dh came home with about a dozen canolis last night. Maybe after we've polished them off I might consider it... after all waste not want not. Although I suppose you could say 'want not - then waist not', eh?
