Back on the Buffalo


I had no idea being in a relationship would occupy my thoughts as much as it does. My blog is being seriously neglected, and this bugs me. I'd like to be more consistent, but my attentions are elsewhere. My angst's reduced and my need for validation disappearing, I find little energy for my writing. Am I this fickle? Apparently.

I fell off the primal wagon while on vacay in Vegas. I blame TI's desert buffet. How did they manage to have every one of my favorite yummies? Since returning a week ago I've found it hard to get back on track. Yesterday was the buckle my belt day and decision to get back on the buffalo (sounds more primal than horse). I feel better just making the decision. Four months of eating healthy can not be blown by one four day vacation.

I still have refused to weigh myself but I know that losing two dress sizes is a lot of weight. I have at least one more dress size to go before I'll be at my best weight. That said this vacation proved to be the best one I've had because I didn't look with envy at every other thin woman on the planet. I felt great.

I don't often post my whole face, but heck I feel like it today. I'm sure I'll get insulted - I know I have a big nose - so either say I'm ancient or...I don't know something more creative. I'm prettier in person my man tells me. I'll take his word for it. (I included an unretouched one, I'm so brave - yes I realize I look super shiny - it was 118F people! I'm from Canada - jeesh).
