No Matter How Much Weight You Lose, Everyone Will Still Think You’re Fat

“Researchers asked participants (young men and women) to read vignettes about a series of women—some who had lost 70 lbs and some who had remained weight-stable. They were then asked to rate the women based on attractiveness and other factors. The results? People hate fat people so much that they can’t stop hating fat people even after the fat people become thin people.”

(A) Disheartening

(B) I guess not terribly surprising

(C) Very real fear of mine, though I try to remind myself that I don’t really care what if the nameless/faceless masses choose to think I’m fat if I know I’m healthy.

This just makes me so… sad.

Pretty sure I bruised my butt with all the falling last night.

Got tired of my snatch tonight!

Working on our 1RM of Snatches tonight. I fell on my ass twice. 1RM turned out to be 55#. My only visit to CrossFit this week and I’m bummed about that. Ready to get back to my normal routine next week.

The Satisfaction

Of eating yet another healthy, delicious lunch… and FINALLY seeing a difference on the scale.

Massive headache, behind at work, and some horrible banging sound from the shop… not a good combination. Thank goodness I have an office door I can close. Now it’s time to get some uninterrupted work done!

TGIF

Just got word from my boss that we will likely be closing the office early today! As an hourly employee I wish I’d known earlier in the week so I could have taken shorter lunches but I’ll never EVER complain about leaving early on a Friday!!

Being proactive

I struggle with my nutrition every single weekend, so tonight we went to the grocery (honestly we have almost no food in the house) and prepared for a good eating weekend. My week has been so spot on I don’t want to ruin all my hard work this weekend!

Dying. Sweaty. Red-faced.

I peeked at the WOD as I signed in for tonight’s class… probably shouldn’t have:

Rowing or Running? Why not both!

Endurance WOD:

2 rds for time:

Row 600m

Run 400m

Row 350m

Run 200m

Max effort on both rowing and running.

Push it as hard as you can!

First thing I thought… why did I sign up for this, let alone pay good money for this. This is going to suck and I am going to die. Then I remembered… I signed up to get better. Every day a little better. So yeah, it’s gonna suck and I am going to hate it. I thought of a million reasons why I shouldn’t go tonight (my life is so busy right now y’all… softball, packing, CrossFitting, being a mom, working) but I’m signed in and ready to go make myself better today.

edit: I thought I was going to die when I read this, imagine my fears when I looked again and realized it’s TWO rounds. HUFF!
