Dear Body,

Boo hiss!!

We are not friends today. I hope we'll be friends tomorrow, but I do not like you at all today, and I would be willing to bet the feeling is mutual.

Usually I feel all cute in my workout clothes. Tonight, looking in those dang full-length mirrors, I felt like a cow. And not one of those cute Wisconsin cows on the commercials. Just a cow. With belly jiggle. And arm jiggle. And butt jiggle. You get the jiggley picture.

I'm sick of this bad attitude week. So let's talk about some good things.

We walked 1 mile, twice today, in 13 minutes and 14 minutes. Drank lots of water. Ate a healthy lunch. Went to the gym even though we didn't want to and hubby gave us grief about it.

So those are some good things, right? We've only been on this healthy kick for a couple of weeks. We're allowed to fall off the wagon. We don't have to feel like a woo girl all the time. The point of this journey is to become healthy, both physically and emotionally. We'll get there.

It's still you and me, Body. I'll pull my head out of our collective butt, and hopefully soon.

Here's to a better day tomorrow.
