Tiny Tim…
Good morning Buddies! Happy Tuesday!
Well, I am feeling pretty darn good I must say…Thanks to all of you for all the feedback…I am liking the hair dark, I think…The husband likes it a lot and friends and family are still split about 50/50… My boss said it makes me look more “serious”…Not really sure what that means!! LOL! J
So I had dinner last night with some old old coworkers…Not old in age, but old as in three jobs ago! HAH!! J I hadn’t seen them in over a year and a half!!
One was my old boss whom I absolutely adored…But they fired her, of course, because she was actually one of those bosses that spoke on behalf of her employees… My company at that time didn’t like that much…So they let her go, and I was devastated…I left about 4 months later after seven years there…
Anyway, had a GREAT time catching up on all the work gossip…She is doing well… So, I was sitting down when they all arrived, and they all mentioned my weight loss, which is cool and all…I have lost about 30 of my pounds since they last saw me…
But then when we got up to leave, we all stood out in the parking lot for a while talking, and several of them said “Oh my god…You are sooo tiny!” Now…At 180 pounds, I am far far far from tiny…
However, I mention this ONLY because that is the second time in a week that I have been called TINY…ME!?!?! Has the world gone mad???
Seriously… Last Friday, I was hanging out with my girlfriends, and my friend Annette FIRST got mad because my ankles are smaller then her…
MY ANKLES?!?!!? She was sooo upset…I mean, really, she is a size 6 people. I think I could handle having chunky ankles if I was a size 6, but anyway… Then I am standing there…With a towel over my head, no less, (Coloring my hair, of course!) when she said, “Girl, standing out here like that you look really really tiny!”
So there you go. Twice in one week… Who knew you could be tiny at 180 pounds??
Personally, I think it’s all rather ridiculous, but you know what, it all felt good. Really really good… I am doing well on my diet these days…Sticking to plan. Feeling good physically and mentally for the first time in months…
I feel like I am getting my spark back…My spirit…My voice…And that is a GREAT feeling… I have missed me…
So take care all! Hope you are all doing well!!! Love ya-Dawn
Glad to hear you are feeling better these days. it is nice to hear those compliments about yourself. Silly, or not it is good to hear. I just have to say that I like the darker hair better. I am brunette though so you know….
I LOVE your hair!! You are such a cute lady anyway and that color suits you (just my humble opinion). I’m also thrilled to see “YOU” back.
I know you’ll be back here with your witty blogs I love so much and I’m looking forward to it.
Hey, just one more thing…I just noticed that we weight exactly the same thing. Hmmmm…maybe I’m “tiny” too?
You’re doing a fabulous job!! Keep it up and have a FANTASTIC day!!!
Doesn’t it feel great? People tell me I’m “wasting” away, lol, I have a long ways to go before that! I do love your new hair color!
Great to hear from you again Dawni, I’m so glad you are sticking with it!
Well you work out like a fiend so I’m sure you do look tiny. I don’t mean to sound like a broken record but you know my stand on the scale, it’s not all in that number. Now go out there and keep enjoying yourself woman!!!!
Don’t you just love compliments!!! Drink em up girl, you are a hottie!!! (A tiny one!)
I agree if you were closer we would be buds!
