Oh, The Humanity!
I bought a hairband today. A couple of months ago, I gave in and bought a hair brush. I haven't had to own either for over 10 years!!! It's a weird feeling for me, getting used to this growing ... thing. I feel like I'm losing my identity and morphing into something quite unknown. The hairband was necessary to keep my hair out of my eyes at the gym. I was just so freaking tired of being half blinded by this thick curtain of unruly hair flopping infront of my face!
*sigh*
On the good news front, I've lost over 7 lbs since I started going to the gym and watching what I ate. I don't think I've been in this decent a shape for a few years. I'm fitting again into my size sixes (though still a touch strained). And my arms are actually showing some muscle tone. They've got a long way to go to get to Michelle O levels of hotness, but I see a glimmer in the dark. So, inspite of the fact that I am learning of the existence of hidden muscles in my body by the ache I feel in them, I'm a little bit proud of myself, and not avoiding looking at the mirror so much. The extra pounds show up very badly on my small frame, so it's good to feel them melting away. And my knee feels just a little stronger. So it's a win all around.
Except for the hair ... I'm still doubtful about that.
