I ate like crap while on vacation. Now, I feel like crap. I feel big, bloated and sluggish. It’s amazing how one week of eating copious amounts of hot dogs, hamburgers, miscellaneous fried food and pizza had really made a change in my mental and physical state of being.
It was super fun while it lasted, but I’m ready to get back to my routines. I’m ready to eat healthy and light. I’m ready to go back to no sugars and no sodas. And I’m ready to feel like me again.

The Sell Out
This Is Me
- Big Girl
- I think of myself as though I'm a pretty typical hipster kinda gal. I feel like I'm younger than I am and I'm still trying to figure out what I'm going to do when I grow up. For now, I'm working part-time "for the man," but more importantly, I'm a mom to a daughter, The Little Miss (TLM) and a wife to The Husband. We live in an area of the country where being anything bigger than a size 6 is considered unacceptably large and in a town where movie stars live. I've always been the Big Girl. Growing up it was because I was taller and "big boned." Now I'm the Big Girl because I'm fat. At one time I loved being the Big Girl but now, not so much. This blog is my way trying to be a part of a community that can help each other through our struggles to be who we really are. For me, it's still being a Big Girl just not of the fat variety.

Well done for getting back to normal! The best part is that "normal" is now healthy...
Your daughter is beautiful - Sounds like your vacation was wonderful and it's always nice when vacations put life into perspective and give us a renewed sense of diet purpose!
Well said Hanlie, that's just what I was thinking - that it's great you've set yourself a whole new set of standards.
I agree well done! :) It's amazing how after a while "junk" makes you realize how icky it actually makes you feel. It's amazing how hungry you end up after eating those kinds of foods too. So, Here's to getting back to normal and enjoying it! :)
SO GREAT that you are ready to get back to your routine.
it can take me a few days but even the junk starts to get old...mainly in that it makes me tired, slow and unable to keep up with the Toddler.
Glad you're back. Too much of a good thing - junk food and princesses - is not always a good thing for long.
Kudos for getting right back to 'normal'. I failed in that regard at the end of my vacation...and it spiralled out of control!
I think food hangovers are worse than alcohol hangovers :)
this is so odd but hearing you talk about all the "bad stuff" actually made me feel sick and bloated ;)
I'm glad you all had fun!
It's great how we long for "normal" after a longer-term splurge such as a vacation. Good for you for getting back to business!
It's important to have those kinds of weeks sometimes just so we can remember how much we value the healthy norm.
PS that picture of the Little Miss is so so cute!!
Yes, vacations are wonderful, but I'm always happy to come back home & sleep in my own bed. :)
