So I am sitting here pointing out every negative thing I can see and think of about my body. All of my imperfections.
The incident that sparked the thoughts? Putting on a bathing suit and taking Isabel to the pool with Patrick.
Before putting on that bathing suit, that god awful piece of fabric, I felt great about myself. I felt slimmer. I've been feeling healthier. I've actually liked what I see in the mirror.
And now I want to cry.
In happier news, I stayed off of the scale today. Normally I weigh in on Thursday's to see where I'm at for the week. This morning I resisted and decided that the only time that number matters is on Monday mornings at my weigh in. That's a huge success!
I was planning on skipping my run altogether today. I felt like I needed a break. But I went for the one mile run to keep the streak going. I'm glad I went for that one mile. Even if it wasn't everything I had planned today it was something.
