Well, we got home late last night from the water park! What a place! So much to do! The kids loved it. We just couldn't stop laughing with each other. So fun to be silly!
Remember how I wrote about feeling a little self conscious about my body in that swim suit? Well, after this mini vacation, I think everyone feeling a little self conscious about their physique should go to a water park for a few days and get over it!~ Seriously, there comes a point where it just doesn't matter any more. I started out wearing a t-shirt over my swimsuit. By the final day the t-shirt was off and I just didn't care anymore. There were a lot of other folks there without perfect bodies too!! I still believe having healthier, thinner bodies is important, but we get have a level of acceptance for our bodies during the process of losing the weight too. I don't want to be foolish and say oh, this is just the way I am and that's it. I get to say that this is the way I am right now and I get to be okay that my body's size during this process. My improved health and weight may not visibly improve overnight, but my attitude and focus has.

We had a blast didn't we??!! And I noticed the same thing - you didn't make a big deal out of it, but took you shirt off the second day. We sure had some good laughs! Maybe accepting yourself just as you are at that moment played a part in that. We had so much fun!
