The shape of things to come

| 3 Comments

I can see my new body starting to emerge from the fat. I still have a long way to go, but I’m starting to build real muscle tone and I’m slimming down nicely. I love feeling stronger and healthier. I’ve gone from a size 16 to a 10 and sometimes even an 8. That’s single digit sizing! It's very exciting.

I’m stuck wearing suits to work almost all of the time now, because almost none of my work appropriate pants fit anymore. I have to admit, it's a problem I love having. And even though I’ve still got jiggles in some places and bumps in other places that I’d like to be flat, I can see how my body is going to look. I’ve always been short, but now I think I’m going to be small and compact. I’m looking forward to it.

And now I have to get your opinion on something. Tonight while I was at the gym working on said small and compact body, a woman in my yoga class did something which I thought was very rude. I’m not sure that I care, but still, I’m curious to know if other people think she was rude too. After class, as we were all rolling up our mats and putting on our jackets and shoes, this little middle aged woman came over to the woman sitting next to me and said in a very squeaky voice “Hi, I’m Suzy. I see you here every week and I just wanted to introduce myself and say hi.” The other woman seemed a little surprised, but said “Hi, I’m Joyce. Nice to meet you.” And then Suzy turned, looked me dead in the eye, and walked right past me to put her block away. Now I go to that class every week too, and have been for months. Am I wrong, or did I get dissed by squeaky voiced grandma?

Oh you so have to point her out to me next time so I can push her over when she's in a downward facing dog.

ooooooooooh that's the kind of thing that drives me nuts. But I have an explanation: obviously she was jealous of all the progress you've been making lately!

Congratulations! You've inspired me. I'm not having the cake this afternoon.

PS. That lady sounds pretty bitchy to me. You're better off without her.
