davidsprincess's Journal, 14 July 2019

One of the things I wanted to do when I lost weight was go roller skating because I haven't gone since I was a kid and wanted to be good at it. So I asked David to go to the skating rink with me about 6 weeks ago. I told him I was going to go every Saturday. We have gone probably four times out of the last 6 Saturdays. For my birthday he surprised me with my own skates- black with hot pink laces. Prior to my own skates there was a sign at the rink that said Absolutely no skate rentals if over 200#'s. I took my chances and hoped no one would ask me because I am a terrible liar and would have blurted out "I'm 208" if asked. So the first time I went around after not being on skates for years- it took me about 12 minutes to get around the rink just once. I kinda did a weird march/frankenstein walk. Super embarrassing but the upside is the rink is filled without a lot of weirdos who are actually pretty accepting. :) For whatever reason- every Saturday it still takes me a couple times around to remember how to do it... and I'd be lying if I said I was great at it or really fast- but I am much better and having fun. I don't hold David's hand anymore and while he glides past on rollerblades- I stick to my skates and try to think about what else I want to learn now that I'm on my way to a smaller size. Beyond blessed and loving my life and my new self. 💗
