A Happy Pic
March 2, 2009
Thanks for all your support, dear readers. I appreciate it more than you know.
Thought I’d share a pic taken last week at Carmine’s. Here I am pretending to dig in to the whole “Tug Boat” (mini “Titanic” for anyone who knows it).
I shared this decadent dessert (ice cream sundae atop a flourless chocolate torte) with my family … and it was scrumptious!!!
And I am HAPPY here in this picture, and need to just get that feeling back. That day I wasn’t worrying about my body.
A friend helped me see this today, and I’m 99% sure part of this down-ness is hormonal (I am due next Tues. and the week before my period is always an emotional time for me and also a body-loathing party) but still …
I want to carry joy with me to Mexico … not self-loathing. It’s a new day.

yes! it is so great to recognize the active “hormones” that are making you feel a certain way, physically and mentally. you are so cute!
no self loathing. aside from all the wonderful blogging, i can only imagine the positive impact you make on the world every day. your self worth has NOTHING to do with diet/exercise/weight.
keep talking/blogging yourself through it!
