This is my Fall (Former Post)

Oct 15, 2011

I've always loved the colors of fall... and the flavors. All the pumpkin, carrot and spice breads, the smells of the fresh baked goods, pot roasts, ummm good stuff! It is this stuff that has made Fall one of my favorite times of the year but I was never too fond of the weather. Having always lived in SoCal it was HOT and all the fashion that rolled in every September was long sleeves... pants... cowl necks.. beautiful stuff that I longed to wear but at my weight I was already sweaty..... so much so it was too much to add any extra clothes and that kinda kept me indoors!
For the last 6 years Ive lived in Northern Ca but I still never got into the boots and sweaters. Its much cooler and more fall like here but I was still always sweating due to my weight. So I aimed at staying in doors in some boxers and a wife beater so as not to sweat like a fat lil pig on Christmas day.
Well... this is my Fall.
My first Fall.... as grown up that I can actually enjoy!!! I loved being outside today, enjoying the weather, the scenery, the kids... and I was able to wear my fun fall clothes. Long sleeves... and boots........I never broke a sweat.. even when chasing after my bad boys!
My body is no longer getting in my way of living and loving my life...

Its official: I LOVE FALL....
