Oh, How I Love My Sexy Bod!
I’ve already written blog posts in the last year about how much I love my pussy and my small breasts. So I thought I’d write today about how much I love my sexy bod. Especially since this is the time of year when I tend to go into shock. Yeah, my birthday is coming up the first week of April.
I’ll be 53.
Eeeek! There must be some mistake, right? LOL
Being delusional and always thinking I’m 18 helps soften the birthday blow. Plus, the fact I tend to dress, talk, and act like a teenager (duh!) doesn’t hurt. Not to mention, I take really good care of my sexy bod (which is true of all the exhibitionists I know, but that’s another blog post… *kinky grin).
So why do I take good care of my bod? Cause it’s the only one I’ve got. Duh! LOL
Those of you who know me know I’m a vegetarian, and I eat organic most of the time. No chemicals for me. Eeeek! I also don’t drink alcohol or eat sugar.
And I LOVE to exercise! I always have. When I was a teenager I jogged and was into yoga. The yoga phase didn’t last long. But I’ve always done some form of exercising, and I LOVE to jog. Did I mention that? Oh, right, I did. 
The only time I couldn’t exercise was in my 40s for about five years when I had really bad fibroids. Talk about painful. Eeeek! They put a cramp in my sex life, too. Horrors! But then I found a great acupuncture doc, and he got rid of the fibroids naturally, as well as the endometriosis that had plagued me since I was twelve. Okay, I’ve also been into alternative medicine my entire adult life.
Some of my readers have mentioned they’d love to lose extra pounds and exercise, but they don’t have the time. Ha! Like I do? Not! Hey, I’m the one who works 10-12 hour days almost every day of the week. Yet I exercise every day.
How do I do it? I always say a diet and exercise regime will never work unless it’s a lifestyle change. That’s definitely true for vegetarians. We become vegetarians because we wanna eat healthier. Weight loss is just a nifty side effect, but it’s not the goal. If it were, most people wouldn’t stay vegetarians. It’s the kind of thing that takes a lifestyle commitment. It’s not something you can just add to your present lifestyle.
Exercise is the same way. It’s gotta fit into your lifestyle, or it’ll never happen. I don’t know about you, but I work too many hours to hit the gym every day. However, I do exercise every day. How do I do it? I work it into my present lifestyle, rather than trying to fit my lifestyle around it.
I suppose the easy way to do it would be to buy one of those cool exercise machines. And when Wes the Packrat cleans out my garage (hopefully, sometime this decade *LOL) I’ll do just that.
Until then, I find increments of time during my day to work in a good exercise routine.
For example, before I go to bed at night I lift five-pound weights to strengthen my biceps. I do 60 lifts with each arm every night.
While my lunch is cooking in the microwave, I do leg lifts to keep my ass tight. Then I jog a mile. I used to run outside, but the weather doesn’t always cooperate, and I really hate to miss my run. So I discovered I could jog in place and get a more efficient workout. Just count your steps: 1000 steps is half a mile, and 2000 steps is a mile. It takes me about 15 minutes to jog a mile in place. If you jog forward and backward (like 5 feet) you work extra muscles in the back of your thighs. If you do arm circles at the same time you strengthen your biceps and triceps. Cool! I used to lift weights for my triceps (nobody wants those hideous bat-wings, ya know? Horrors!). But I stopped when I discovered arm circles could do that for me while I was jogging. Okay, I’m a multi-tasker from waaaaaay back.
This daily exercise routine keeps my sexy bod toned with daily spot exercises, weight lifting, and jogging 5-6 miles every week.
Hey, if I can do it and work 10+ hours every day, anyone can, right?
BTW, isn’t it cool how this blog post popped into my head the first day of February? I mean, it’s just in time to help those of you achieve your New Year’s resolutions for losing weight and living healthier in 2010.
See? I can be helpful and think of others. Kinda. Maybe. Not. LMAO!!

I'm with you, I've always exercised. I used to be just a runner, but now that I'm getting older, I try to incorporate different methods into my exercise routine. I hired a trainer for a bit to help me with what works best. I now have a few sets of weights from 5 pounds to 20 pounds, I have a Bosu which is so much fun for balance, I have a weighted hoola hoop, a small trampoline for when my friend's 4 y.o. comes over (my three month old puppy Oliver thinks it's his!), a fit ball and a jumprope. I know. I'm the kind of person who likes to work out at home. I never was one of those look-in-the-mirror gym people, although they say if you want to get your form correct, it does help to look in the mirror when you're learning a new routine. :ilke you, I tend to incorporate exercise into everything I do. When I'm pumping gas, I do squats, when I brush my teeth, I do plie leg raises,.
I wish you would go on a national campaign to get young girls to love their bodies the way you do. I was with my friend's 17 y.o. over the week-end. There is so much pressure on these girls to look a certain way. I think the reality show girl that got 10 plastic surgery procedures at 23 is a terrible example of today's young women. I thought she looked so much cuter before. Anyway, thanks for the post I'm writing now but in a bit, I'll do my work-out…Mary Kennedy Eastham, Author, Te Shadow of a Dog I Can't Forget and the upcoming novel Night Surfing

So you mean sitting here munching on candy hearts while twisting in my computer chair is NOT what I should be doing? Well dangit anyway….we have enough exercise equipment in the basement to open our own gym….see thats the problem,its in the basement where its dark and dreary.I told David I wouldnt go down there and workout and since son #4 left home for school there is no one here who can help move it upstairs…And going to the gym? Aint happening cause ya'll know you have to be fit and trim to get into the gym and well….*looking down* again aint happening.Should I be on the treadmill most def,can I do it now?Laura have you ever tried to exercise with a kid velcro'd to your leg? All excuses I know but…my choice of exercise is throwing the girls a handful of M&Ms and running like hell to the car so I can go shopping…alone…have you ever taken 4&5yr olds shopping and try on clothes in a tiny dressingroom? Now that is an Olympic event and a major work out…
February 1st, 2010 at 7:48 pm
Hi, Mary! I'm glad you enjoyed this post. Yeah, many of my local friends are in their early 20s and the pressure to look as thin as possible is intense. Not to mention the big boobs thing. But back when I was a teen we had Twiggy. Gorgeous woman, but yikes!
Ha! I think parents would freak if I went on a national campaign to help young girls love their bods. So much of what I talk about is sexual. I mean if you love your bod you gotta love your pussy and your breasts (no matter how large or smal they are). And that always leads to sex for me.
But I totally get what you're saying. And who knows? Maybe young women would listen to a slut like me faster than they would a squeaky clean spokesperson. But then we're back to their parents freaking out over me. Not to mention I'm a Witch so the "Devil's Spawn" thing would come up too. lmao!!
February 1st, 2010 at 7:53 pm
Carol, all I can say is excuses, excuses. *lmao* If you're lucky enough to have the gym equipment at home you've got no excuse not to use it no matter where it is. As for the kids, get a schedule, darlin'. They have to sleep at some point during the day. Head down to the basement gym when they're snoozing at night and work out. It's doable, really. Although you gotta ditch those candy hearts. Horrors!!!
February 1st, 2010 at 8:04 pm
I hate it when youre logical,ya know that? LOL….if not candy hearts what about an M&M? *mentally seeing you smack my hand* OK no to that too…but I am doing arm exercises while I read emails so see I am exercising…..but you have a point if we all liked our body images then there would be less unhappy women.Frankly I blame it all on David….
February 1st, 2010 at 8:12 pm
This simple, logical slut thinking of mine can be so irritaing, can't it? Just ask Wes. He hates it. *lmao* No sugar, Carol, it does nasty things to your bod. Arm exercises are good, preferably while you are JOGGING IN PLACE. Not sitting on your ass in front of the computer. *laughing like crazy*
I can totally relate to the blaming David thing. Is it really his fault or is it just that it's so easy to blame everything on him? And it works so well too. I even find myself blaming him for stuff when I can't find anyone else to pin it on. lol
Okay, time for lunch after I jog a mile and do some leg lifts for my ass. Spring mix salad with black olives, kidney beans, chopped pecans, and Italian herb vinegrette dressing. All organic. Yummmm! Notice the lack of sugar?
February 1st, 2010 at 8:30 pm
One day Laura…bamm to the moon with ya….LOL….remember the Honeymooners? Now dont get all logical on me,I live with preschoolers for pity sake!!!! There is no logic in this house. And yes everything is David's fault just ask him he is always right….you can ask Katlyn she'll agree…now I'll go run up and down the stairs for some exercise hows that? And if Katlyn sends you an email telling you she found me laying at the bottom of the steps well…it'll still Davids fault….
February 1st, 2010 at 8:38 pm
Funny, Wes used to use that Bam to the moon thing with me sometimes too. Wonder why? Guess what? I always liked Jackie Gleason. My dad looked a lot like him. And when dad was drinking he looked like Fred Flintstone. Crazy, huh? It gets better. My dad knew Jackie Gleason. They closed down several bars together in Vegas and Atlantic City. Both alcoholics, both gambling addicts. Small world, huh?
Hey, the only stairs I'm intersted in seeing you on are the ones that go down to the basement and that gym equipment. I'm just soooooo aggravating, aren't I? No wonder Kat likes me so much. lmao!!!
February 1st, 2010 at 9:16 pm
All right I have to say your are my best friend!! I have been teling myself all the things you wrote and i have been working on doing it. Even my honey has liked the change he is seeing. Down two pant sizes and at least two more to go. I just have to keep thinking about the goals I have. Also that I want to be sexy as sexy can be. *Lusty Grin* So Please keep telling me that I can do it. Some times it takes someone telling you that you can to keep you going. That and the sweet little dress you want to get into. hehe
February 1st, 2010 at 9:23 pm
Thanks, Beach! You are a sweetheart! Congrats to you for the weight loss. You go, girlfriend! You know me. I'll keep after ya until you reach your goal. No reason why you can't do it, right? Right!
February 1st, 2010 at 10:24 pm
WHAT?!!!! You have an elliptical in your bedroom????? Wow, Carol, you got NO excuse whatsoever. I would LOVE to have one of those. Lucky woman. Now get to work!!! lmao
February 1st, 2010 at 11:15 pm
you should see the little girls use it like a side by side teeter totter….LOL …I can even put my kindle on the shelf thingy and read as I trek along…or use my ipod….David is just as bad as me about using the thing…off to clean the torture device off and give it a serious talking to and let it know who is boss….
February 1st, 2010 at 11:21 pm
Great post Laura! I too enjoy exercise and have made more of an effort to fit it into my day. Doctor's orders actually. LOL. I have a treadmill in our basement and I used to belly dance, which I love and am planning on doing again as soon as I decide to finally get out the dvd's.
The one thing I haven't done in awhile that I loved almost as much as a good lay is horseback riding. I actually saw my former instructor at lunch and chatted w/ her briefly. I'll have to do that again when it gets a little warmer. Speaking of a vegetarian diet. How long have you been a vegan and do you eat any bread or whites, such as rice,potatoes? How did you get off the sweets? That is my biggest pitfall! LOL.
February 2nd, 2010 at 1:03 am
Good for you!!! I do all kinds of planning and thinking about stuff while I'm jogging. That's what you're supposed to do, right? lol
February 2nd, 2010 at 1:20 am
You love horseback riding almost as much as a good lay? Whew! You have me worried there for a minute, gf! lol
I call myself an "almost" vegan because I do eat organic cheese on lasagna and pizza. But not the non-organic stuff full of all those awful chemicals and hormones. I was a vegetarian in high school, but back in the 70s there wasn't much out there on how to do it right, so I quit and added chicken to my diet. But went back to being a vegetarian in my 40s cause I went into perimenopause at 37 and it was all downhill from there. I was in perimenopause for like 12 years and developed terrible fibroids, like 60 of them. I spent 5 years looking 5 months pregnant. Not fun. So to save myself from death by perimenopause I went back to being a vegetarian, got my estrogen under control and balanced, and have been an almost vegan ever since.
February 2nd, 2010 at 1:21 am
In fact we just came back from eating at Longhorn Steak House (Wes eats all my sugar and meat for me). I had a fab dinner of asparagus, steamed veggies, mashed potatoes (they also have baked potatoes and sweet potataoes there). I drank water, because that's all I ever drink. i have nothing against a white baked potato. They are good for ya. But white rice isn't, so I always do brown rice or wild rice (my fav). The only bread I eat is organic, since most regular bread in this country is made from those nasty GMO grains.
February 2nd, 2010 at 2:23 am
Yeah, I agree about eating organic and brown rice is better than white. I really like the vegetarian recipies in your novels from the "Witchery Series" and have tried a few of them! Actually w/ the horseback riding, it's fabulous exercise and I enjoy jumping horses! No, it's not as good as good sex, but better than bad sex. IMHO. LOL. Bellydancing is a sensous form of exercise as you could !imagine. I love the music too!
February 2nd, 2010 at 2:41 am
Alrightyyyyy! I'm glad you enjoyed and even tried some of the recipes in my novels. My readers tell me my novels make them hungry, so I had hoped they would try some of these dishes. I eat them all the time and LOVE to cook vegetarian. The funny thing is I do it all in a microwave with corningwear bowls (well, except for the pizza *lol*).
February 1st, 2010 at 9:57 pm
Great job on the weight loss Beach…I need to find someone to come knock on my door and make me exercise.Once I get started I'm pretty good at staying on a routine.Its just awfully hard to get going when you are out numbered and there is no place to 'send' or 'lose' the small people who always want to 'help'…now if David would just stay home long enough to watch them…oh well….but I do think about using that expensive elliptical machine that is sitting in my bedroom thats holding up Davids dress shirts that need ironing more and more.So maybe,just maybe I'll go dust it off…..
February 2nd, 2010 at 4:01 pm
Laura, very interesting post. Didn't realize we had so much in common. I, too, love to exercise. I, too, am basically a vegetarian–some fish (gotta get those omega threes!). I, too, being an exhibitionist, love to keep in shape. As Jack Lalanne once said about males, the thinner you are, the bigger your business looks down there.
I wouldn't knock the GMOs too much. Without them, millions would starve. Just a thought.
Would love to raise your hearbeat sometime, Girl! Dave
February 2nd, 2010 at 5:48 pm
Good for you, Dave! Didn't know you were also a vegetarian and a lover of working out. Awesome!!!
I get ya about the GMO grains (genetically mutated grains). My problem with them is they have known ever since Monsanto created them in the 50s that they cause cancer. All the flour and bread in this country that is not organic is made from GMO grains. Can't get away from the stuff unless you eat organic flour/bread. There's too much cancer in this country these days. We are approaching a 50/50 change of getting cancer in your lifetime if you live here and eat our chemical rich food. And GMO grains are one of the reasons those statistics are so high. So I try to avoid them every chance I get.
February 2nd, 2010 at 5:53 pm
That is interesting…I had no idea.I make alot of our bread but if I am using other then organic what good is it? Is that right?
February 2nd, 2010 at 6:09 pm
Right. GMO grains aren't just wheat but all grains like rice, oats, etc. As crazy as France is they have refused anything with GMO grains from our country for years cause of the cancer % of that stuff. But then Europe is more advanced in this kind of thinking. They had safe chemical free makeup long before the US. It's just getting here. But so much of what is in makeup and personal care products causes cancer. This is Corporate America for you. In order to sell makeup/personal care products in Europe they had to take all the bad stuff out years ago. But they kept it in the stuff they sell in the US. They have always had two kinds of makeup. The good stuff and the bad stuff. Finally, women in the US are wising up and demandingt he good stuff which is why you are seeing it now in bits here like mineral makeup (no talc that causes cancer).
February 2nd, 2010 at 6:10 pm
Anyway, so many people think they have food allergies in this country. They don't. They have allergies to the chemicals in our food. So many think they have incurable diseases in this country, especially disgestive diseases like Kat. They don't. They just have severe allergies to the chemicals. The bad thing is the symptoms are destroying their organs. That's what Kat & I talked about. So many of her symptoms are like chemical allergy syptoms, in cluding her mood change.
February 2nd, 2010 at 6:23 pm
so I looked at the whole wheat flour I have in the pantry and it says in the only ingredients is whole wheat flour, and it says it has iron,riboflavin,thiamin and niacinSo how do you know if it has GMOs? This all news to me….
February 2nd, 2010 at 7:52 pm
Who made it? Pillsbury or one of those big Corporate America companies? If so it's GMO. Any non-GMO flour is gonna say it's organic and "made from non-GMO grains." If you drink soymilk be sure it says it is made from non-GMO grains. If not it is GMO. Any grains sold in the part of the grocery store that is not the organic health food section is GMO grains.
February 3rd, 2010 at 2:00 am
Thanks Carol, my kids are older and i still have very little time to myself. But i have just decided to work on it and to look good for my husband and myself. So its going to take time but i will do it. Because i want to look good in a sweet little mini skirt that i want. But most of all i want to feel good and healthy. At 40 its time to do just that and i wish that i had started a lot sooner.
February 3rd, 2010 at 2:13 am
oh to be 40 again……
February 3rd, 2010 at 2:35 am
You crack me up, carol! No way I would wanna be 40 again. Shivers! I was in perimenopause, nasty fibroids were on the horizon, and my husband was deep in his midlife crisis. Horrors!
Nah, I love being 52 almost 53. Every year and every day of my life is better than the one before. As Alex always says: MOVING FORWARD! lmao
February 3rd, 2010 at 3:14 am
seriously you wouldnt want to be 35-40 again? 35 was the best…youre not considered a kid and not considered an 'old' person either.Now 53 isnt bad just not what I had thought it would be.I knew adopting twice in my late 40's would be a challenge as far as parenting, its the other stuff I hadnt anticipated…like David being on travel all the time…so …yes again its his fault….and its snowing and that's his fault too
February 3rd, 2010 at 3:31 am
Nah, I'm serious. No way I would wanna be 35-40 again. Life is just soooooo much better now. I ADORE menopause!! Wouldn't trade it for the world. Love, love, love it!!! I love my acupuncture doc too and how he has gotten rid of a host of medical problems that plagued me for decades and regular docs couldn't get rid of and just made worse. My life at 52 is a BLAST! Seriously, every year of my life is better than the last.
But I do think you should blame David for the snow. I am blaming him for the cold rain down here right now, and it is working very well. lmao!
February 3rd, 2010 at 2:05 am
Beach, 40 is YOUNG!!! You go, girlfriend!
