Dear the blog:
I don’t want you to get too carried away, but I’m losing weight. Exercising almost every day. I take one day off a week. I’m very motivated. Eating a little more conscientiously. Settle down! I said a little more. There are limits to my madness. Marjorie suggested if I were serious I could maybe cut down on beer. I suggested I would rather eat my eyeballs. We’ll try the exercise first and see how it goes. Besides, lately I’m working mostly from home, so there’s no beer anyway.
The secret to committing to a fitness program, apparently, isn’t shoes or expensive equipment, or a gym membership or workout clothes. It’s not working out with a buddy, and it’s not being jealous of models. It’s not looking in the mirror and hating what you see. It’s definitely not buying into pop culture’s profit driven body image terrorism. Please do yourself the favour of rejecting pop culture’s profit driven body image terrorism.
For me it’s not that I hate the reflection– it’s wanting to like the reflection. It’s wanting a long & healthy life with somebody immensely important to me.
Seems to be working so far. I feel pretty good.
