I’ve been feeling crappy (and crabby) lately. I’m slowly growing out of my clothes, and the number on the scale is quickly growing to numbers I haven’t seen in 5 years.
I’m sure it’s all due to my eating habits. However, I don’t feel like I’m eating differently than I have been the last few years…try to be healthy, but indulge in the occasional nachos or pizza. Maybe the occasional indulgences have gotten more frequent? It was very easy to eat well before I moved in with E. If I didn’t want to eat it, I didn’t have it in the house. E is the kind of person who is tall and thin and can eat whatever he wants without gaining an ounce.
I also started taking my bc on a different schedule. Some studies say yes it will make you gain weight and others say no it won’t. Hard to say, I guess. I’m also getting older by the minute, and while I’ve never had any sort of awesome metabolism, what little I did have I’m sure is slowly fading.
So…I don’t know, but I know it sucks. It was so super easy when I lost weight before. Everything just clicked together and it came right off. Having it come back tho…is disappointing. And scary, like I’m out of control and it’s not going to stop. I’ll cut out the candy at work – always a big culprit, and cut back on my portion size, and try not to stress about it. I’ve lost it before and I can lose it again.

I am always going on that up and down roller ride, too. Now that I’m not in my twenties, I have to fight a little harder, but it’s never impossible.
You can do it!

It’s totally harder as we get older but it IS possible. You can do it!
