Back in Action!

Okay I'm back and feeling good. Actually by yesterday I was much better and back in the gym. I went to the gym tonight as well so I will rest out tomorrow and maybe hit spinning again on Saturday morning, we shall see. Anyway I just have to share about my driver's license. I just realized yesterday that my driver's license expires around my birthday in January. I can't tell you how much this excites me because I have had to live with my double-chinned driver's license photo for five years. I remember taking it in '05 and picking out a pretty red sweater to wear and doing my hair and applying some cute red lipstick only for my face to look like a pie with two chins and a pale as a ghost. I remember crying in my car in the parking lot over this picture. How vain is that? I don't even think vanity had anything to do with it. I think it was just the truth staring me in my face that I needed to lose weight and it wasn't until over a year later that I got my act together. The real kicker with the license incident was that the photo I had taken at my renewal five years before that horrid picture was the bomb! I mean it looked like a cover photo. My hair looked like I had a fan machine on like how Oprah has on the covers of her mag and I had a nice smile and a much smaller face but that was taken in 2000 when I was much lighter but still needed to lose weight! Talk about night and day. The crazy part was on the double-chin license I list my weight as 40 pounds lighter than what I actually was at the time. Who was I kidding? My face told on me big time. All I can say is I can't wait to take the next one, It's going to be my best pic yet!
