Default I'm back...

Wow, I haven't been around in a while! AND I've put on 20lbs since not being here too!! I stopped working in July and gained most of it back then. I'm working again, but only part-time and it's not really helping. However, I do work at the YMCA and I have free membership to all programs, so, I have no excuse as to why I'm not in the gym working out. I started back last week. So, I had to come back here and get some more motivation.

Over the last few months, I realized that I didn't really care about losing weight...even after seeing the weight gain. However, this month changed me. Someone gave me a gift card for Christmas. I went to the store and was going to buy me some new jeans. I picked up a size 20 (I've only worn this size once right after I had my son). And I picked up a size 18. The 20's fit in the waist, but were too big in the thighs and butt. The 18's fit everywhere, but were really too tight in the waist (made my stomach rolls protrude over them). So, that was my turning point. I put both pairs of pants back up and didn't try on another pair. I can't believe I was about to buy a size 20. My mother wears a size 20...and I always said that I would never get to her size. So, here I am...I'm back and ready to get on the weight-losing train again.
