Spin me right round baby



It has been another Olympic night. After going out for a very vigorous walk with baby boy tonight, I have been watching the men's figure skating with my husband. During the commercials, I twirl around the living room and entertain my husband with my our artistic interpretation. My husband thinks I should just go out on the ice and do my thing (without skates of course as I don't wish to spend extended time in traction). I really believe I could score at least 30 points for all my facial expressions. Why I've been practising for years. Every time I jump on the scale and it's down, it's like landing a quad (lingo we Olympic skaters use for twirling pretty for 4 times around). I am so into these Olympics...


I absolutely loved the answers I got regarding which event you would be in. It makes you think...that could have been you. If you really wanted it...you could have made it possible. That's what we've all done by choosing this band. We really wanted to take control of our weight issue, so we did what it took to make it possible. Very powerful. We should really give ourselves credit for the choice we made to better our lives. It puts us on the podium. So kudos, to everyone here on these blogs that dared to dream and more importantly, did what it took to make that dream happen.

Great post, so funny! I keep trying to watch (and have my kids watch) and then it gets away from me. I've seen snippets here and there, though. LOVE the Olympics.
