Today I finally decided to take a walk during lunch. I haven't exercised in over 8 months so I thought, it's time. My co-worker Inayah went with me. It was a nice stroll and turns out we walked 2.7 miles. I didn't realize how far we went. It was just nice walking and chatting. We did some crunches back in the gym but I didn't get to far with that. Afterward, when we were getting dressed, my other co-worker Barb told me I should go back to the office without my Diva wig. I wasn't sure if I was ready for it but it was such a warm day out and I was dying to shed my itchy and tangled wig. Both Barb and Inayah encouraged me so I did it. I actually went back without it. Sure I got a few looks and got some positive compliments but for me this was huge. Shedding my wig and showing my true look was tougher than I expected but I actually feel really good about it. In fact, I even have a dress on and everyone thought my new short haircut complimented my dress. Remember a few days ago, I was all upset and feeling like I couldn't wear a dress with my new look? Well, I'm doing it and I feel GREAT!! I actually had my 2 co-workers take a few photos of me outside. This one is the only one that really turned out. What do you think?
