Christina Week 6 - On a better track

by Christina on February 7th, 2008

So pre-fashion week wasn’t so inspiring to me, but a few good things happened to me during and after that have put me in a much better frame of reference and feeling more positive.

1. I have cut WAY back on my smoking. I was planning on quitting totally while in NYC, but I didn’t. What I did do was successfully wean myself from a pack and a half down to <10 cigs a day. And I think I can wean off further. Say a prayer.

2. I have been exercising. One good thing about life in the big city is that you walk a lot. I didn’t walk as much as I had hoped to, but certainly more than I do in a day here. I am very sedentary, and walk to the barn and to the kitchen and bathroom and back to my computer. Yep, that’s about it. I exercised yesterday though, and will do so again tonight. While watching those skinny bitches on Lipstick Jungle. Day two of habit forming. I can do this!

3. That’s about it. I have found myself wanting to eat more - and even made a convenience store trip for a danish - something I NEVER do, and mustn’t do again. And I am going to wash this dieting negativity out of my system and do the best I can. Will weigh in the morning, as I know I gained a few pounds in NYC. So much good food - and we ate it - tons of it. *sigh*

This picture is from the ribbon cutting ceremony at Fashion Week, with the skinny bitches from Lipstick Jungle. Believe it or not, the teeeeny little face closest to the backdrop behind the barricade, is me. I am famous. :D Brooke Shields is inspirational to me, because I know she has to work to stay THAT skinny. She truly blew my mind, she looked so amazing. Maybe someday - just for a minute. :)
