I'm technically not at my heaviest I've ever been in my life. However, I'm nowhere near where I wanted to be at this point in my life. I've come to the conclusion that I will NEVER be skinny. I honestly have no desire to be skinny. But I do feel like there's a thinner version of myself trapped in this fat body. It's been a long time since I've blogged on this blog and I haven't made much progress. Actually, I've gained weight since I've last blogged. These are some goals I want. Most of them, I want to have in a year. Some, like becoming a MILF are not likely to happen. But I do think I'll be able to fit into my prom dress in a year. I'll even have a smaller bra size in a year. And maybe, just maybe, I'll become a runner. I definitely want my boyfriend (yes, the boyfriend I have now) to be proud of me. He says he's proud of me and loves me just the way I am. Yes, I believe him. But I want him to wake up next to me a year from now (maybe not precisely a year, because that'd be hard to do if I'm here and he's in Phoenix) and go "Damn, she's hot." I want to be "the hot girlfriend." I especially want my best friend, Justin to for once, think I'm pretty. In the 14 years I've known him, to my knowledge, he's only thought I've looked pretty once. I want him to think I look pretty all the time and not be embarrassed when we hang out together.
These are things I want for my future self. I could put more; but 50 seemed like a good number to stop at. I could've put stuff on there about when I have children (aside from the MILF); like being the hot mom at soccer practice, or the mom that makes all the other moms jealous. I also think a year is a good starting off point for these goals. Most of them, I can achieve in a year. I know how I want to look and the clothes I want to wear. But most of all, I know how I want to feel. Now it's just up to me.
***UPDATE*** I really HATE running. But so many people tell me it's rewarding, fun, and relaxing. However, to me it's monotonous. I'm going to TRY running a couple of times when I'm physically able to. If I don't like it, I've added an alternate to #38 if becoming a runner doesn't work out.
