I'm at an age when many women believe their best years are behind them. I hope to convince my "Sisters" that many more of those "best years" are waiting to be lived! I'm living proof it is never to late to live them. Not to long ago I weighed nearly 200 pounds and was being treated for a long list of obesity related medical problems. Thankfully there came a point in my life when I decided to keep my self promises. When I did...my life opened to a world of possibilities.

Dress for Success!

Ok..I had to share this with you. I think its pretty funny.
Yesterday as we were getting ready to go to the Gym I put on my work out clothes. They were on sale and looked good at the time I bought them.
Pink, bell bottoms that were the perfect length and my EAS Energy Camp T-shirt.
The problem was the pants had shrunk...and the T was getting a bit
faded...but I thought what the heck--its Sunday. Nobody will be at the gym so I'll wear them anyway.
When I met my husband at the door he looked at me. You could see the wheels turning!
Then he said...
"You are a champ. You should dress like one!"


Then he added...to soften his criticism. "Bells are ok, Hon but not when the bottom of the bell hits the top of your ankles."
I immediately turned, walked back up stairs and put on a champion's outfit. Pants that fit, coordinating top.
By the time I got downstairs I started to feel like a champ too.
My workout was great and my husband was proven right, once again.
There is a reason for that old saying..."dress for the job you want."
