Sexy Photos of Older Ladies

It's Friday -- Return of Frivolity Day. To mark the occasion, I thought I'd chitchat about stats which are kind of like an accident for me. I see an accident and know that I should keep my eyes on the road lest I get into a rubbernecking-induced fender-bender.

I have a love/hate relationship with information and technology. Once, when I got a ticket, I got postcards from lawyers wanting to represent me in traffic court. Really?

And I still don't know how I feel when someone calls me back after I've decided not to leave a message.

Occasionally, the search stats amuse me and remind me of things I've been preoccupied with:

Gratuitous Embellished Sexy Photo of Older 'Drea's Upper Body in Oiselle Shirt Scored from MizFit

I like the simplicity of Drea Go. If I ever change the title of my blog, I think I have the name. I'd also consider Sexy Yoga Body even though I don't do that much yoga.


Any interesting phrases in your stats?

I'm My Own Heroine

I was reading the blog Overdose of Satisfaction. I have to first say that I really dig the title which comes from this quote by Salvador Dali:

There are some days when I think I'm going to die from an overdose of satisfaction.

Kourt wrote a post on March 31st called Everything's Amazing and Nobody's Happy. In the post, Kourt decides to address her low self-esteem issues and wrote 50 things that she likes about herself. I was intrigued and wrote in the comments that I didn't know if I had the (introspective) stamina to write 50 things that I liked about myself but I was still intrigued...

I googled the exercise and came up with some guidelines from eHow which include:

1). Start by listing 5-10 things you really love about yourself. Think of all the things you have done so far in this lifetime that made you smile and to be proud of yourself.

3). Do this exercise over a couple of days...

I think the couple days is crucial because characteristics occurred to me over a span of time especially while walking. Without further ado, here's the list:

Well, here's some ado. My title is inspired by MizFit who has a shirt (along with her daughter) that says I Am My Own Superhero.

1). I like my sticktoitiveness. I’m told that even when I was a little shorty and knew nothing about shoe tying, I persistently wanted to tie my own shoes without assistance. Also, I once stored food in mouth that the babysitter had given me until I was able to get to my grandmother who helped me to dispense with the distasteful matter.

2). I enjoy hanging out with other people but I also enjoy my own company.

3). Little things make me happy.

4). I only applied to one college.

5). I know how to change a tire.

6). I know how to check my oil.

7). I like my eyes.

8). Even though they don’t seem like they should be on my body, I like my massive calves.

9). I like my arms which are firm.

10). I like that I can make other people laugh.

11). I like my love/hate relationship with altruism.

12). Very few things frighten me.

13). I’m a stickler for details.

14). My family is important to me.

15). Hello! Hips unplugged.

16). I’m fond of the burgeoning definition in my abs.

17). I was able to lose 58 56? (fickle scale) pounds.

18). I stuck with rock climbing even though it gave me jitters at first.

19). I climbed a 5.9 (just yesterday).

20). I’ve read hundreds of books.

21). I participated in a sprint triathlon.

22). I learned to swim as an adult.

23). I like the introvert’s angle.

24). I smile from ear-to-ear when I get a sentimental message.

25). I’m willing to try new things.

26). I have eclectic taste.

27). I’m considerate.

28). I’m thorough.

29). I am responsible.

30). Whenever I see a Cardinal, it stops me in my tracks.

31). I enjoy photography.

32). My friends are important to me.

33). I like that I write sappy missives.

34). I enjoy singing while I walk or clean.

35). Lovin’ the new collarbone.

36). I’m a good listener.

37). The shape of my head is pretty cool.

38). Satisfied that I stopped using hair chemicals.

39). Glad that I’ve been working on being flexible (with other people and physically).

40). I like it that, at night, if I’m fretting about something I can usually put it aside and get a good night’s sleep.

41). I like casualness.

42). I more generous with myself.

43). I’m level-headed.

44). I’m patient.

45). I pick my battles.

46). I have an expansive spirit. (Friend verified)

47). I am sweet. (G’ma verified)

48). I am loyal.

49). I’m kinder to myself.

50). I am more vocal.

I'm also including the video that Kourt posted on her blog which is from The Conan O'Brien Show and it's called Everything's Amazing, Nobody's Happy. Kourt encouraged everyone to do a list and I hope this exercise spreads like wildfire. I also hope that you're having a satisfactory day that extends into many more days.

The Imposter Rut

Diane, over at Fit to the Finish, had a recent post called My Lame Excuse List and posed the question What’s been your favorite “I can’t get started” excuse?

My response? I never made excuses because I thought I was sexy as all get out. In fact, in high school, my nickname was Sexy Wren. Don’t ask what high school I went to…

Recently, I have been feeling unsexy. How weird is that? I lose 60 pounds and my body image takes a dive. I won’t even delve into the psychological ramifications of this inversion. Denial? Coping? Who knows?

My scale has not moved since early November 2009 and being in a two month rut makes the imagination run wild. You start to wonder what you are doing wrong, if you’re eating enough or too much. Maybe you’re eating too many fat calories or not the right combination of carbs, proteins and fats.

Lately, though, I’ve been seeing quite a few posts about non scale victories and I was really moved by this post at *Bitch Cakes* who talks about reframing and focusing on what you’re doing right.

Also, Mish’s collective post, Getting Fit, Not Thin, stuck with me.

*Bitch Cakes* brought it home in another post in which she said that this fitness journey is not a race .

Likewise, it was helpful to be reminded on MizFit that the calorie is king.

Even though the scale hasn’t moved, I do have more room in my clothes. My rings no longer fit on my ring finger. I wear an L in most clothes instead of clothes with tags that look like a Super Bowl championship number.

My once snug glasses are loose.

I'm also having to adjust my climbing harness more than I did before.

And the biggest bonus? I am fit. Very. I hit the gym six days out of seven.

I eat up – trading white rice for brown.

I no longer drink soda.

I don’t eat food with high fructose corn syrup.

While I can and should eat better, I’m still doing a lot of things right.

I’ve shrunk out of five swimming suits…

Speaking of swimming, I went tonight after a three week hiatus because of a cold and the cold.

After swimming 18 laps, I got in the hot tub. I know why the lifeguards walk around the edge of it; I’m sure someone has fallen asleep and almost drowned.
