Yet again, I turn over a new leaf.
Yet again, we begin The New Cruelty.
And all because of that picture up there.
Okay, no. I take that back. I'm doing it for a lot of reasons. But that picture is my main incentive, my definite catalyst. My Elba.
Why?
It looks like a pretty good picture. When you consider that my three-year-old took it using an old point-and-shoot camera, it's almost impressive.
"That's a good picture of me," I said.
"You look cute," my husband said.
And then I saw it.
The double chin.
One month off the wagon. One month of depression and inertia, eating whatever I wanted, doing no exercise, drinking no water. The scale says I haven't gained any weight, but there's a definite difference in the fat-to-muscle ratio.
And FREAKIN' DOUBLE CHIN. Look.
I now hate this picture. This is not who I want to be. I may never be a "thin" girl. But I resolve to not have a double chin.
So I'm back on the wagon.
I will eat less than I want to.
I will eat more vegetables and protein.
I will eat less carbs and sugar.
I will drink nothing but water. Mostly.
I will exercise. Maybe not every day, but most days. I'm back on the Shred.
I will not eat after 8pm.
I will not bake.
I will succeed.

Hey, more power to ya, Hottie. I'm all in favor of you know, being healthy and stuff. But for the life of me, I seriously cannot detect this double chin you speak of. I even clicked on the picture and looked closely. I see no double chin. Are you sure it's not that strand of your hair that's creating the illusion?
Also, it's a good picture of you. And you're pretty. And cute. Et cetera.
Love ya!
can the "mother-creature" who spawned you get in on some of the exercise/walking action?I have a couple of things that can help us both, as you know. TIMIMNG (and spelling) is everything.
luv

Woo-hoo. You go!
I plan to sit here and watch, trying not to tempt you to the dark side. Mmm, brownie. Sorry. Force of habit.
I'm with Valerie, I can't see it. I think maybe it isn't exercise but a visit to the eye doctor that you need. I think you look fantastic!
I think you look beautiful. But a 20-minute daily shred, lots of water, and a clean diet never hurt anyone.
I see no double chin. And even if you have one, you should be happy. Did I ever tell you about my friend Dan who didn't have a chin. Sad. His face just disappeared after his lips.
And I also have a friend named Dave who has 8 chins. He's dangerously underweight, but he has 8 chins and 3 bellies and one giant walrus mustache.
I think you guys used to date.
