Thirteen Things About the Ideal Me

Like drinking enough water, positive thinking is something I forget about all too easily. I have my ’skinny me’ picture open and I’m envisioning what I/she is like…

This is is mostly a work of my imagination. Who knows if everything I put here will turn out to be the truth, but I think they’ll at least be pretty close.

Thirteen Things About the Ideal Me

1. FitJM likes being active. Of course, that is helped immensely by not getting winded so easily!

2. FitJM loves to dance! I have always loved to dance, but you can go much longer when you’re fit. Plus, you don’t feel as uncomfortable dancing in front of other people.

3. FitJM actually likes clothes and cares about how she looks. I kind of do now, but I imagine I will a lot more when I can actually wear fun, cute things.

4. FitJM doesn’t need birth control or other medications. She’s fit, so her body works the way it should.

5. FitJM is happy planning future children. Until I get my body straightened out, they’re not really a possibility…

6. FitJM can outrun Mr. JM. As it should be.

7. FitJM has sexy lingerie. Hehehehe.

8. FitJM enjoys food and no longer considers it her enemy. I very much look forward to that day…

9. FitJM is confident. To get where I want to be, I’ll have to work through some blocks I have. It’ll be lovely, though…

10. FitJM loves cooking! I like cooking a lot now, but I reckon part of my health journey will mean cooking even more.

11. FitJM works outside the home more often. I know that a big part of my problem is that I work from home (freelance writer). My goal is to work outside the flat more often (which involves finding free wireless…)

12. FitJM loves to run… In my better times, I’ve been able to do some sprint-type running. Were it not (currently) so hard on my knees and ankles, I think I’d be well and truly addicted. I’m looking forward to becoming addicted in the future.

13. FitJM is going to have fun sending pictures to people who knew her as an overweight child/teen/woman. The. Best. Part.
