Aside from getting a bunch of work done, this toasted sandwich with rocket from the garden was about the most worthwhile thing that happened today.

somerealclassyshit said: “there’s actually enough space there to fit an 8kg kettlebell between my stomach and the waistband, or a thick-soled running shoe…” haha those things are so specific, is this essentially a list of objects you’ve been shoving in your pants?

Haha! Those were the objects lying closest to the computer that seemed to be about the right size. X’D

Body changes post-hysterectomy?

So after 1 year of T I remember taking out my winter clothing and finding out that all my trousers were too wide around the butt. Some were so much too wide they pretty much immediately dropped down to my ankles without a belt.
The next couple of years there wasn’t really much difference though, and since all the other changes on T had started slowing down considerably too, I figured that was pretty much it.

Now, I had a hysterectomy late last year, October I think, and I don’t know whether it’s because I lost a lot of weight in general, some of which I’ve not been able to put back on since (despite eating the same or even a little more than usual). But I also think that the weight that I have managed to put on hasn’t gone back to where it used to be. And that might have something to do with the hysterectomy shifting my hormone balance a little.

I bought these shorts last summer, and they were fairly tight back then. I dug them up yesterday because we’ve been having some good weather the last couple of days, and they’re definitely a lot looser.
You can’t see it so well, but there’s actually enough space there to fit an 8kg kettlebell between my stomach and the waistband, or a thick-soled running shoe…

Okay, so the Dutch national fitness certifitation organisation is called FitVak

Which - I kid you not - is pronounced more or less exactly as “fit fuck”.

Try telling people in English-speaking countries about that certificate you just got…

Thanks! It might be worth a try if I can get around the ridiculous “customs fees” you sometimes have to pay on top of the international shipping. I’ve had to pay up to 60 euros a couple of times because customs decided to open up a box with a minor purchase for random checks. With the world’s most expensive solid gold and diamond encrusted utility knife, apparently. And then cellotaped back together with tape manufactured with unicorn bone collagen.

Such a lesbian

Me: You have so much space outside your place. You should just plant some low maintenance stuff there like a hazelnut tree or spinach or beetroot or something.
Friend: I should! Omg, I want vag…tuh… vegetables. I want vegetables, I mean! …Vagtables. I am such a lesbian…
