That's super impressive, what you're doing there. Congrats Bet it's helping to make you feel great!!
Yup, some gym would be good. I'm half thinking of maybe doing some dance classes too? I used to do a lot of dancing when I met my H. I used to really love dancing, and I miss it. I'd like to try something a little different this time round, perhaps ballet?
My work is pretty active and varied, so I guess I'm quite lucky on that front. I've lost so much weight this past month. Last time I checked (a week or so ago) it was a stone - which I think is 14 pounds for Stateside peeps. Maybe it's more now. I'm quite small anyway, so it's really pretty noticeable.
I also had the loveliest compliment ever from one of my best friends today, who said I was one of the most positive people she'd ever come across. She said I make her feel that anything at all is possible and that she can do anything she wants to. I actually had a little cry to myself when I read her message this afternoon.
I've been trying to make sure I look fine and dandy whenever I go out the front door, even if it's for something small and straightforward. I've found that is making a difference too to how I'm feeling. And I reckon that's coming across in what other people are picking up on and how they're seeing me?
The really funny thing is, I've had a few guys chat me up over the past 10 days or so. One very obviously had a bit of a thing for me when I was on my way to my GAL activity on Monday...it was hilarious. I could tell he thought I was quite a bit younger than I actually am (thanks to my genes for that), pretty glamorous (thanks to my job for that), and exotic too (thanks to my background for that one).
I was happy enough chatting to him for a while, but I don't know what I would have done if he'd asked me for my phone number. Thankfully he didn't...potentially awkward situation avoided.
Bet it's helping to make you feel great!!
