I'm trying to tame the runaway gain, but I find that it's a hard situation. I've gained somewhere between 10-15 lbs and a size and half since last August. Strangely, I don't really mind that much except for two factors: I've lost all my tone and I can directly tie the gain to the increased interest from XYs around town. Totally scientific evidence that (most) men like a girl with some meat on her bones. And that some of my old clothes don't really fit anymore, but hey, the new ones are nicer. I've gotten a kick out of the effects too (I've got a rack! A big one! Plus my ass is amazing! Yeah, I'm vain. And what?!), but really starting tomorrow I'm taking myself to the gym and getting my money's worth. I mean it this time.
You might ask: "well, you're putting it across like you don't mind the weight and like having it around, so why is it a battle?" Mostly because my body type is such that I'm about 5 pounds from crossing the line between curvaceous and fat. My eating habits suck for real. I'm all about fast food and eating at strange hours and I'm basically a slug, sitting around on my ass for about 80% of the day. I don't even really dance, my only source of exercise. when I'm out and about nowadays, so all the years of hard body goodwill I had are fading. Plus truthfully, I'm not really happy with my bottom half and I think a wonderful addition to birthday time in Miami would be strolling the beach super fit like I was two years ago.
Then again, I'm never satisfied, so that has a lot to do with it also.

Miami? When?
Posted by: Camilo at January 30, 2004 03:57 PMYeah, motivation to get to the gym is definitely the hardest part.
Miami circa the first weekend in March.
