So even though I can run errands during the week now, I'm about to head out to return a bunch of stuff. This is something I seriously hate to do on Saturdays -- heck, I don't like to go to stores in general -- but I got up and got ready for book club and then realized we weren't meeting. I'm glad I checked before I went to a coffee shop and paid for coffee when I have everything I need for that right here at home, already paid for.
So why am I going to run errands? I have a handful of things to return and wanted to do them the second I realized I didn't have a job any more. So I'm off to face Saturday shopping traffic, which is pretty much guaranteed to make me stabby. But do them, I shall.
And if you're wondering about the fat blog in general, let's just say that we are big football fans, and some time in the last two years, listening to commentators, I realized that I weigh as much as some football players. Yes, American football players. It's my hope that by the time the 2010 football season comes around, I am just a fan; not a twin for some of the front linemen.
Today I am thankful for:
Sunshine, and not buying a coffee at a coffee shop when I have it at home.
Current weight:
239 lbs.
When I was laid off on March 24, 2010, I thought I'd start a weight loss blog. I did, and called it "I was overweight when I was laid off". Unfortunately, I didn't lose weight and the title only sounded like a stand-up comic routine. Years later, I had multiple free-lance jobs and then another real job, and I got tired of saying I was going to lose weight. Now I'm doing something about it, because I don't want to just be the girl who CRIED skinny, but be the girl who is healthy.
