Catty Reasons why I want to lose weight

Catty Reasons why I want to lose weight:

    So I don’t have to be the “fat mom” all the time.So I don’t feel like I am embarrassing my kids.

    So I can be more active with my kids.So during my 3rd and (hopefully) final pregnancy,

    I can wear cute pregnancy clothes. And people can tell I am pregnant, not just getting fatter.

    So when people ask how old I am they aren’t shocked that I am this young.

    So for the first time ever I can not dress in clothes that are way older than me. I don’t want to dress young and sluttish, but I would like to dress my age in more fashionable clothes.

    To escape the plus size department. I have been imprisoned there for too long. To not feel like there should be a wide load sign taped to my ass when I bend over.

    To not be the fattest person in my entire family, because right now I am.

    To not feel like a piece of blubber when I put on my swimsuit.

    To not have to wear a bathing suit with a skirt like an old lady.

    To not be everybody’s “Fat Friend.”

    To be smaller than my husband.

    To look better than my S-I-L. (Told you it was Catty)

        To not be scared that the airplane buckle won’t shut or the ride bar at Kennywood won’t close shut because of the double belly.

I came up with theory:

I will do ANYTHING, and I mean ANYTHING to lose weight, BUT DIET AND EXERCISE!  Or portion control. But other than that I will do anything. LOL.   I’ve fallen. But I am in the process of getting bacdk up folks. I started a big long analysis of my being fat in my works document. Maybe over time I will post bits and peices. You know how something works for everyone and they just have to find that something?   Well that is what I am working on. I am in the process of getting a bunch of books out from the library.   Right now I have:

~Flip the Switch Lose weight (about metabolism)

~Denise Austen Your Tummy Type (I have this old 6 min abs VHS of hers I love)

I ordered Bob the trainers Are you Ready from Biggest Loser and also their Success Secrets. Oh and I ordered The Perfect Recipe to lose weight and feel great from some lady. The library is so awesome, I getthem all for free for 3 weeks to see what I really like. Can’t beat it.  I will take notes on anything and everything I think are valuable.  Now can anyone point me to a WW Points knock off site?   Something that explains it all. I might give it a try.

So that’s where I am. I am back to baby steps but at least I am getting my ass back in the game.   Talk to you soon and more frequently, I hope!
