“I Feel Fat”

I feel fat.

I know I’m not really fat. I’ve never worried about my weight. Nor do I weigh myself. Ever.

Even after two babes, the number remains pretty steady.

I also know that the feelings associated with “I feel fat” are more about the health of my soul than they are the number I may or may not see if I were to step on a scale (which I won’t be doing).

As I wrote in today’s Daily Mile post, I haven’t been a good runner.  I haven’t been a good runner because I haven’t been running. Life is excruciatingly complicated at the present and sadly, the miles seem to be the easiest to let go of.

I feel fat.

I do.

But it’s not because I am. It’s because I haven’t been intentional about taking care of my body and soul.

Today is a new day. As is tomorrow.

And as I also wrote in today’s Daily Mile post (I am very much a problem solver/solution do-er), I’ve started a simple challenge.

I don’t want to feel fat any more.

    Oy, I feel the same way especially because I cannot run as much as I want.  Hopefully my knee MRI will come back with good news.

    I have been pretty much a running failure as of late. I have even cancelled my planned run for today because the bike keeps calling to me…
