Yesterday I decided I would take a day off from work and have a me day. I am lucky to have a wonderful substitute who was a long term sub last year and knows me and first grade. So the only day she had free was today. So got up took kids to the sitters came home and read some, napped some, ate some. Now I am off to get my hair trimmed. Trying to grow it out so it's only a trim. I love that it's long enough to put up when I work out. Then I am stopping for some of my favorite Indian food. Spice, spice, and more spice. The rest of the day I will have to see what I feel like. I would love to shop but don't want to waste money that I really don't have.
I made an appt. to get a fill, Sept. 13. He only does fills on Sundays and I really wanted one this weekend but since it's a holiday he took the day off. I definately have limited restriction. I can eat about anything right now. The saving grace is that my workouts haven't changed. Love my workout and feel so good doing it and when I am finished.
My principal really has been instrumental in helping our staff become fit. She is a fit person herself at age of 56 or so. Petite and beautiful person. She writes us notes every few months. Mine yesterday was: "First of all, I want to say how proud I am of your workout ethic. I have seen a tremendous change in your confidence. You have always had a smile on your face and been happy but I can tell now that you are really happy." Wow, that feels really good to read what someone can see in yourself. So true too. I am confident. I don't feel as embarassed of my size, rolls, and wierd but I don't feel as short. I am 5'1" and when I was heavier I felt really short and low to the ground. Now I am standing taller. My shoulders and core feel strong so I sit up straighter. I am happy.
I am so happy for all my blogger lapband friends and the weight they have lost!!!! Way to go!!!!! I need more restriction so I can focus more on losing again.
I had better go to my hair appt. Hopefully the smoke won't be so bad outside cause of those fires. So far they are miles away but we our house backs up to a national forest and the potential is there. Happy Tuesday::::)))))

That is great to have a boss like that...it makes a difference. Also, good for you that you took a ME day! You deserve it and needed it~!
ReplyDeleteSounds like the perfect day! I have every other Friday off as part of a compressed schedule and it is my 'ME' day. I have a standing nail appt for a fill and sometimes treat myself to a pedicure. Enjoy the rest of your week!
