Where did you Go and what did you DO this summer?
I am interested readers in what activities you engaged in this summer that might benefit our readers...did you take a cruise and do an activity that has you jazzed and had a weight limitless...fill me in WHAT DI D YOU DO?
This summer was about me getting a bike. I wanted one so bad and through a bunch of stuff I finally got a bike. Because I am heavier, I am accutely aware of how I will look on a bicycle riding down the street and tried to think of when I will ride when there is less of a chance that I will get seen. I've decided that AM's between 6 and 7 are the best times. So, I'm pumped about my bike and I am pumped to get riding.
I am so happy that you have your bike, and even small riders buy clothing that "looks cool" as they ride...I loved your idea when we were talking of riding in a dress. Are you wondering if people will say things as you ride? Can you post a photo of your new bike we are dying to see it.
I started going to the gym and even taking a ballet class there! It's sometimes really hard to get motivated but I'm trying to go 3 times a week. This summer has been off I normally make it to the beach several times but went only once this year. Unheard of! But it saves me the embarrassing time of doning a bathing suit! ;)
Ballet was good, it was hard, but I ended up not being able to sign up for this time because I got so sick! I just wore yoga pants and a tank top and socks. People buy shoes (theres a place near here that sell them, where I got my little girls, hers were $17) at a "real" ballet shoe place, but she said socks were good!!!!
