#7 and #26


 I joined one of those fitness boot camps to get motivated and get my fat ass in shape. Tonight is my third session. The previous session I thought my lungs were going to explode(due to my sedentary behaviour) but I'm getting into the groove and I hope to increase my cardiovascular endurance. I joined to lose weight and also because Caribana is a couple months away and I just purchased my costume. I am a little scared of it. It's a little...tiny and I'm a smidgen BIG. So....yeah....I'm working hard so I don't look like a hamhock being stuffed into a sausage casing. Being a big girl, I hate when other big girls wear stuff that is inappropriate for their size—in this occurance, I am just going to have to let go. Whenever I would go to a beach and have trepidation about removing my sarong, I would close my eyes and say' there must be someone fatter than me on this beach'. I would open my eyes and low and behold, there would be. I'm sure I can do the same at Caribana. I just don't want to look "fat and lawless"(that's how one of my bitter spinster great aunt's described me).  I won't show you what my costume looks like exactly, but it's one of these three...
