I’m not big on resolutions, but I do have a goal to lose 10-15 pounds before summer so I feel better in more revealing clothing. Ideally I’d lose 15 pounds so I could get down to 120 pounds, but it seems like once I hit 123 pounds I get stuck. Last year the closest I got was 122 and I kinda gave up because I was pretty happy with how everything fit and how I looked. I’m not so happy now because all the extra weight tends to sit on my hips. It’s particularly annoying right now as I wear long underwear beneath my pants to keep warm but with the extra weight I can’t wear them under jeans, and I refuse to buy a larger pair! So I’ve been wearing lose fitting dress pants to work and track pants at home. My jeans fit ok, albeit snug, without the long underwear but I’d freeze to death without them.<\/p>\n
I was actually doing well working out 20-40 minutes per day on the elliptical until my birthday when I went back to work. Up until then I had been working out every day for five days straight. I haven’t been feeling very well since my birthday but once I get over whatever that is I plan to get back to a regular workout schedule again. Honestly, 10-15 pounds is not THAT much to lose; I can do this!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
