Manic Monday

I made it through my first session with a personal trainer this morning. There actually wasn't a whole lot to it. It was mostly paperwork and an assessment of what I could do. I guess the first "real" workout will be on Friday when I see her again. Despite having to wake up at the crack of dawn today, it does feel good to know that I already worked out! That doesn't happen very often. Usually I find myself sitting here in the evening, trying to will myself to go exercise. Not tonight!

Having a blog is kind of like free-associating. I just like to type the first thing that comes to my mind. Right now I'm thinking about clothing and how I am having one of those days where I feel like I have nothing to wear (despite my closet full of clothes). One of the biggest things I hate about being fat is the limited clothing options…especially in Canada! I really miss Lane Bryant and Torrid from when I lived in the USA. I know I can order clothes from these stores online, and I have, but there’s no substitute for actually trying on a big pile of clothing. One store I wish I had plus-size options? Lululemon. I love their yoga workout wear, and long to be able to shop there. Everyone deserves to look cute when they're working out! Even big girls! *sigh* I must be having one of those moments where I feel sorry for myself because I'm fat.

Right now I'd settle for breaking into my box of size 18/20/22 clothing that's sitting down in the basement! I can't wait to lose enough weight and inches to be able to "go shopping" in my basement collection of too-small clothing.
