Who Is Squashy?

I’m squashy all over my body, and it’s annoying.  I’m soft where I’m supposed to be firm, and I point out where I’m supposed to curve in.  I’m a confident person, too: I dance at parties and make friends easily.  Actually, I’m a pretty cool girl.  Often, though, I look in the mirror and go, “Who’s that?  The woman I feel like I am is much more fabulous!”  I’ve got the confidence, I need the body to match.

I’m “squashy” in other areas of my life as well.  There are things I skip doing because I don’t think I’ll have the energy.  My house is not the extremely tidy place I want it to be, and sometimes dinner is less than spectacular, even though I have a new recipe I’d like to try, because I just don’t want to bother going to the store for ingredients.  I need to tone up my life, too, and while I think my body is a good place to start, it is, by no means, an end.

I’m starting this blog to help with that goal, and your words of encouragement are greatly appreciated.  At this time, I’m not doing any hard-core diets or exercise programs, but those are coming.  Also?  I’m not tracking my weight, for a few reasons: one, I don’t have a scale!  (Flimsy excuse, I know.)  two, I’m not posting my weight on the internets!  Because?  Eeek.

Happy reading.
