So, it's no secret, but I'm not what you would call "small." I haven't been for a long, LONG, time. In fact, for a long time, I've convinced myself that it didn't matter. Which, in some situations, I still believe size doesn't matter. Anywho, when I was about 10, I was...chubby. Or what you may call pleasantly plump. But I never really realized it. When you're little, you don't. But then my dad got married and his new wife, my new step-mother, started having us eat healthy and start exercising. I HATED IT, for a while. When I was skinny, I realized it was all worth it. I even started doing pagents and all that girly stuff. Oh yeah, did I mention that I was a bit of a tomboy? So, after moving on from that, well, life happens, I was getting older and didn't really care about eating healthy and exercising. I mean it's way more fun to grab something in a drive thru, and head to a party, who has time for exercise? Well that was my mentality about health all through out college too. So naturally, when you eat crap, drink empty calories, and never exercise, you gain weight! Now that I'm married and thinking that kids may be a little nearer in my future than I realized, it's time to get my {big} butt back in gear.
*UPDATE*
We are getting "back into it" for weight loss. We pretty much sucked it up the first time(s), but we know if we want a baby, this has to happen. We're sick and tired of being so chubby anyway. It really hit me when I was looking at my medical chart the other day and realized how much weight I have gained in just two years. I've got a closet full of clothes I can't wear, and I'm too broke to replace it all! Plus, I want to be able to spend that money on baby clothes when we finally get that little bundle of joy.
