Food fantasies tonight: chocolate muffins, chocolate ice cream, chocolate popsicles, warm chocolate pudding, chocolate mousse, german chocolate cake, chocolate covered pretzels, chocolate drizzled over popcorn, chocolate hazelnut spread, vat of chocolate sauce for immersing my entire body. My brain's calorie deficit is kicking in and overcoming my mind. One more week, and I'm having a chocolate binge after my final weigh in. I KNOW!!: not recommended. Nevertheless, let me fantasize for my final week, okay?
I went swimming today for half an hour in the CHapel Hill heated municipal pool. Heavenly until 4:00 when all the highschoolers showed up for the swimmeet. Before than, only me and a pool fullof warm water, which I like. Cold pools are only refreshing in the hot summer sun. It is forty degrees outside with a dreary cloudy rainy chill in the air. A good day for a warm swim!
One week to go. Feeling healthy and fit. thougth I Wish my mother's large thighs would disappear from my legs. I love you, Mom, but you could have kept these thighs to yourself. I never, NEVER had massive thighs before a few years ago, and lo and behold, my mother's massive thighs appeared on my body. Weird how middle age recreates our mother's body on us. I always wondered how my slender, fit-looking Mom had these huge thighs. Now I know. They magically appeared after she hit 50. Nothing to be done but gawk at them and wonder why the heck they appeared. I love my body, but these thighs --- well, I dont exactly love those things because they dont seem to be mine. I'll claim the rest, thanks.
