I just got back from a two day trip to Wisconsin Dells, a touristy waterparky area of Wisco. We went to a really cheap waterpark which is the first time I have gone swimming in maybe, 3 years? Which just about coincides with the time I realized I had become a horse of a horse (of course).
But anyway, I spent the whole day in a bikini covered up with a tank top and jean shorts. I still swam and had fun, but I was not about to show everyone what I've taken great care to cover up. Still didn't keep my fiance from griping the whole time that I was in hiding and he couldn't see my boobies. Well then take your t-shirt off. Oh wait, you think you're fat too. Hmm. Well then quit calling my kettle black, Mr. Pot.
Random: Dr. Oz just said the key to a healthy marriage is sex at least one time a week. Really?? I average 3 times a month.....maybe. Why is sex deemed so important? It. Just. Isn't.
The key to a healthy marriage is a skinny wife.
Anyway, I had fun in Wi. Dells. There were lots of skinnies to ogle and be jealous of (I think I checked out more women than my fiance did) but for every skinny there were 2 fatties. Seriously, I think this epidemic of obesity is changing the waterpark landscape. Nothing is funnier/sadder than watching a 300 lb woman getting caught on the lazy river. Nothing makes you feel like more of a delicate flower than that.
And nothing snaps you back to reality more than a chocolate/caramel/pecan turtle the size of a closed fist. I am going to be sooooo good this week making up for the weekends sins. I did good at the wedding, ate a little meat, a handful of green beans, picked at the mashed potatoes, passed on the stuffing, cake, dessert, etc. I wasn't terrible in the Dells, but I didn't go out of my way to be better, either. So this week is recovery week. I have to be prepared cause I might overdo it on Saturday. This Saturday we are taking a trip on mushrooms, and we may just eat for the sensory experience. Healthy stuff, homemade salsa, IDK what else.
Today I am going for a 400 cal day. That sounds like a good well rounded number to me. I have foregone exercise today to catch up on blogs, and because I got a lot of exercise this weekend. But I will start up again tomorrow.
I am so sick of my job. There is nothing I'd rather do than go to work early just to go to a stupid meeting! Yeah! Fuck you all. I hate you, factory. Ready for that new job now!!
Okay. Well. I think its time to go wake up Boy. It is after noon, after all. Where did my morning go? FML.
Love you skinnies. Do me a favor, don't eat today. Mmmkay?? I'll try my best to hold up my end of the bargain!
:)

I can totally relate to everything you said (cept the mushrooms :/ too strait-laced to do that, or something haha) but most of all to the 300lb fat chick on lazy river.
That's usually about the time, I elbow whomever I'm with and tell them if I ever get half that size, they need to get me a hamster ball to perpetually run in.
Unfortunately because this is the US, it is some kind of epidemic. Body acceptance is great, but accepting that you're morbidly obese and likely to die of a heart attack at 35? Not so okay...
Hey, I noticed that you commented on Lauren's blog (http://theloneliestmeal.blogspot.com/) and said you were from the Appleton area, and I live in Green Bay (at least for the moment).
So anyway, I can totally relate to this post! I went to Great America this weekend, and saw a ton of fatties. Of course, I'm not exactly skinny myself, so I can't judge too much. But it was really ridiculous anyway :)
Have a great day!
