For Melanie:
1. Dessert is preferable to food. I literally have to force myself to eat right and put down the chocolate for a salad or sandwich. Honest truth is I'd replace all food with sweets if I could. It's always been an internal struggle for me: being fit vs. momentary bliss. The cruelties of life! "Wouldn't it be great if treats were good for you and the vegetables were the dessert?" -Kaiden
2. I'm scared of losing. Life has never been more perfect for me than it is right now. But, inside I'm scared of losing all that is good. My husband, my children, my home, my friends, even my little puppy doggy. Existing is a completely unvalidated fear. Chalk it up to one too many losses in the past, I guess.
3. Taking a back seat to Jerry Mc Guire, school completed me. I felt very insecure about myself until I had a degree in hand- like it magically validated my existence.
4. Sometimes I feel like I'm spinning wheels right now. I can't go to work, there's no one home all day but me, life is filled with mundane doctor appointments, volunteering at school, and cleaning. I really think I need something to do!
5. I feel fat. It doesn't matter how much weight I lose or gain I always think I'm too fat. It's been that way since I was 8 years old and the size of my jeans never made a difference. Even when my clothes are falling off, I'm trying to figure out how to solve my problem ares- the jury's still out on that.
6. Christmas is magical for me. I love it. The lights, pretty presents, smiles, music, trees, shopping, wrapping, treat making, love it all. I never outgrew that. It just got better with my own kids.
7. I love gardening and being outside but do you know what I let stop me? I don;t know either. I need to get my boodie out there and prune some foliage!
