after thanksgiving update

Dec 07, 2010 20:34

Thanksgiving was awesome, though I couldn't eat that much because my band is TIGHT! I'm getting daily heartburn, which I know isn't good, but it's so much easier not to overeat on all the great food and sweets around the holidays. I've been killing myself with a new weight training routine at the gym and I can barely move my arms today. I like the burn though! I've been on a couple more dates with that guy Dan. He is really nice, but I'm not sure how much I like him. He's quite a bit older than me and he's different than most guys I've dated, which is a good thing! but I'm not sure our personalities get along yet. I have a great time when I'm with him, but I'm just not sure he's the guy for me. Which is no big deal, because I really want to date around. The only problem with that, is that I can't find ANYONE to date around with. My dating pool is a desert. I thought it would be easier now that I'm so much smaller but it's really not. I guess my standards have gone up some, but I still have a lot of trouble meeting anyone decent. I think it's my personality. I'm not planning on changing it anytime soon, so I guess I'll just have to hope that one day I'll meet someone that I click with. In the meantime, I'm trying to up my odds by being social and getting myself "out there", whatever that means!
My friends have a bad habit of flaking on me at the last minute, which really sucks. It seems like I have all this energy and want to do stuff and be social and everyone else is only like that a very small part of the time. My job is going okay. Not too bad. I have a week off before Christmas, so I'm looking forward to that. I've applied to a lot of other jobs, but nothing has come up that has an acceptable salary--by acceptable, I mean one that I can actually live off of.
I'm getting excited about Christmas! It's really cold right now in Florida. It's supposed to get 23 degrees tonight!!
My swelling has gone down so much and for the first time in forever, I can honestly say that I'm happy with how I look. Now, I am by no means perfect or completely fit and slim, but I think I look pretty damn good, especially compared to before!
I'm going to a really nice restaurant tonight with one of my friends and either getting prime rib or lobster, so I hope I can eat some of it!
