HA! If you know me, this post is probably gonna make you laugh. At least I really hope so! I learned recently that there has been some "gossip" going around about my weightloss. Just silly ladies at school drop off that I don't really know, but see on a regular basis. Mind you - most of them went from seeing me daily last May at almost 200lbs to then not seeing me again until last September, about 70lbs lighter. Apparently...at that time, the word on the street amongst these ladies was that I must be using. As in DRUGS!
Are you dying? Cause I am. Of hysteria!! Oh yes. That's exactly me. Home snorting CRACK while all the kids run around naked. Didn't you know?
Anyhow - I couldn't resist publicly putting this rumor to rest! No friends, I didn't do any drugs. I didn't throw up my food. I didn't even starve myself (that much!)
What I DID do was bust my ass, pounding the pavement in my magic shoes. And there were more days than not that it was super HARD. But I had a few things along the way that made it easier. I still use them. I'm talking MANTRAS...not drugs!
(Want to know what they are...click over to my post on 500 in 2010 today to see!)
Thanks for the laugh today! It might even become a new mantra of mine...

Really??? Those moms are sooo silly! You are amazing. You look fabulous.
Haaa! There are always those that gossip.........
YOU look fabulous! Keep it up girl!
You must be kidding! Keep working hard and giving those gossip girls something to talk about.
You gotta give them some credit for being creative and unrealistic. You live in the OC. Why didn't they spread the rumor about lipo? You can get that at the grocery store in the OC, right? I guess that would have hit too close to home for them. Kudos for the crack rumor. Exercise is much better for your hot new bod. Good for you and your health!
Did they stop to see how hard you worked on getting to where you are? You worked your a** off and still do. It makes me sad that they don't know how much hard work and dedication goes into it.....you have to be a strong person like you! You amaze me and I hope to be like you when I grow up!!! xoxoxo
You obviously aren't a druggie because you can't snort crack... you smoke it! I mean, ah, I saw it on TV once.
I can honestly say I have watched your slim down via pictures on your blog. You have quite a bit to be proud of losing the 70+ lbs. I don't run...never did like it, but you have inspired this old lady to get off her duff and do something about my own weight gain this past winter. Pray me thin! Hugs!!!
