Didn't your mother ever tell you NOT to ask that?

It happened today...
While I was innocently grabbing my bags of healthy yummy groceries...
those 3 words every single girl battling the bulge never wants to hear...
"Are you pregnant"...

I didn't know if I should be mortified..
Cry..
Or laugh...
So I Politely responded.. nope I'm just comfortable???
In the arsenal of responses... looking back... that one is probably the lamest one you could come up with...
I'm comfortable...
OK... I WAS wearing black leggings and an oversize sweater... so MAYBE that was misleading to the UN-suspecting sales clerk...
Or Maybe I really have let myself go THAT bad...
What I do know is this:
I'm on a Journey right now...
It's a journey in the right direction...
To reclaim that cute lean body I once possessed...
The nice muscular leg's... The size 2 smile...
and the confidence that goes with it...
I know this journey is going to be a long challenging one...

But I'm ready...
I have my fitness plan...
And today I took the next step and met with a great nutritionist, who understands the plan I'm on...
And how to help me learn to take care of this body.
On Wednesday I am meeting my most amazing Doctor, for a complete work up.
And on Saturday I'll run my  first "official" timed 1/2 of the season...
Followed by a week of playing in the mountains...

I know I am strong...
I know I am stubborn enough to see this to the end...
And Mostly...
I know I am not pregnant...
So for today...
The response is... no I'm just trying out the look...
Turns out I hate it...
Now I know 100% for certain I don't want to get pregnant...

Take a photo today friends... because tomorrow... I'll be a whole new girl....
