Confession: Thirty Pounds Heavier
Don’t really know when I started to let myself go. I don’t know if it was when I finally got tired of rice cakes and traded them in for cowboy stew and a big slice of Momma’s homemade bread or if it was when I decided that I would rather spend 45 minutes on Facebook instead of 45 minutes with hot hip hop abs guy. Of course it could have been when I figured out that my husband is either too in love with me, too use to me or has me too well trained to leave me now. Perhaps it was when I made my children’s education my first priority. Whatever the case, in the last year and a half I have gained a whopping 30 lbs and bought my first pair of size large pants. Discouragement was brief though because after listening to General Conference, I can list at least ten things I’m doing right….plus I also spent 45 five minutes with hip hop abs guy this morning and I’m feeling very optimistic. And let’s face it, I finally have girls and buns! So I might as well enjoy having cleavage. It does kind of take the edge off of buying a bigger size.
