Hi 2Skinny
You're so much fun. Waitressing is so fabulous for getting your bum and legs in shape, and of course your arms. I've waitressed for years and the MOMENT I quit, literally, the weight piled on. I wore my pedometer to work sometimes, and I'd be shocked by the end of the night. The only negative is that I find it virtually impossible not to smoke when serving or bartending. Well not WHILE serving. But on my break, you know? I don't know if you've ever smoked but it is ridiculously difficult to quit while still working in a place where everyone smokes and you have to accomodate less than considerate people on a regular basis. That's life I suppose. I think it's a great idea though, you're obviously such a fun interesting person anyways, (Anyone can see this from reading your diary) I really think it's cool. Also, it's such a fun job as long as you work with mellow funny people. The shrill neurotic ones are the people that make a restaurant environment unbearable.
Your. food. makes. me. drool. rather impressive because all while remaining at such a low intake, and exercise, and the food sounds delicious. It just seems like you're not restricting yourself too much even though it's all healthy and you're not actually eating very much. If you can can decipher what I'm trying to say, I'm grateful and all I mean is GREAT JOB!
Your country jog sounds so lovely. It's like I can picture you in one of those commercials where everything looks vibrant and inspiring and the dog is laughing and running and the slim woman is running yet smiling and looks perfect and the sunlight captures the subtle highlights in her hair and she's not sweating. So then I go out to jog and it's not the picture perfect moment captured on tv. I'm cynical today, I apologize. How dare I marr your diary with my negative thoughts. This is what I meant to say....you've inspired me to go get on my treadmill. Thanks

Keep up all the wonderful things you're already doing, and have a great night.
