My husband and I snuck away this weekend for a quiet time together -- life has been so nuts of late, it was desperately needed. While away, I had some "Wow!" moments I thought I would put down on here.
1. I played golf again after not playing in about 3 years. I was afraid it was going to be like the last time we did where I was winded, not able to move right, etc. NOT THE CASE. I walked and walked and walked without even feeling like I was winded. I was able to move easily swinging the clubs, chased the balls (A LOT!), hopped in and out of the cart like it was nothing...it was amazing.
2. When I was getting my massage, I was able to put on the robe without them having to search for a larger one and/or me being self conscious about it being so tight. It easily fit, in fact, I had to wrap it quite a bit!
3. I wasn't self conscious about getting the massage. I have avoided them for the most part because of the weight...opting for a facial or something easier like that. This weekend...hot stone massage...and it was AWESOME.
4. I was able to buy and wear a very fitted dress to the formal dinner we had on Saturday night, and FELT great in it. I can't remember the last time I wore a dress, let alone one that was so form fitting. It was AMAZING.
5. I moved around the resort looking...dare I say it?...like a normal person. I wore skimmers (longer shorts) with sleeveless tops and didn't feel out of place at all.
6. I was able to eat a filet mignon!!! The restaurant on Saturday night didn't have a lot of choices that I would normally be able to pick from. So, I asked the waiter what would be more tender...the filet or the lamb. He said the filet, and he was right on!!! It melted in my mouth...no issues with anything getting stuck or me not being able to handle it. I was so happy. Meats have been touchy for me.
7. Last, but not least, I found myself sitting and crossing my legs automatically. Not hard to do at all....it was just so natural. Unreal.
So...a few Wows that showed me that I am moving in the right direction.
