Well why the HELL not Jillian!?!
I swear, if I have to hear that phrase one more time....well, I guess I better get over it cause I will. As I was doing my Jillian Michaels cardio blast yesterday I started thinking about this, she says "it doesn't come for free" you gotta work at it, etc. quite often throughout the killer workout. WHY doesn't it come for free? WHY must I sweat my tail off, and eat super strict if I want to lose weight. Oh and let me go ahead and tell ya, I'm about to turn all whiny and bitchy here for a minute...tune out if you must. Seriously though, I just wanna be lazy and eat whatever the hell I want and stay skinny...is that really too much to ask? Ha! Yeah, don't worry...I've known for about 10 years that it is. Let me go ahead and point out that I realize skinny girls may not be smart, and pretty girls may not have "inner beauty," etc. BUT, it is so unfair how some people can not really worry about working out/what they eat and not gain weight!!!! I have friends that struggle with weight/discipline/working out just like I do, I have friends that don't need to worry about it that much, and then I also have friends that are so disciplined and obsessive about food and working out it makes your head spin. I just wish I could find an even balance between the three. I realize I will forever have to work out and eat decent if I don't want to blow up like a pig, which I don't. But...why oh why can't I be that girl with the super hard core metabolism who can just kinda watch what they eat and stay thin. *pity party for Caroline day over here* Or why can't I have more discipline, I swear some people are just born with more...this is something I have always struggled with. My brother can say he is going to diet and will stick to it like crazy, he has the discipline to do what he says...I remember when he wrestled in high school, how he would never eat at thanksgiving cause he was cutting weight, now that's discipline! Why did I miss that gene!
Anyhoo....just super frustrated after stepping on the scale...it took me a year to get off 15 pounds before my wedding...I wasn't crazy about exercise or eating at the time...it was just a slow process. The weight I was when I got married is where I should freakin STAY. I am 5'1'' for crying out loud...not much place for the fat to go! Over the past year, I have slowly put back on those 15 pounds...and guess what, it's all my fault! You know how it goes...we got home from the honeymoon and I wasn't ready to jump back on the eating healthy/working out train quite yet...then comes football season, where I probably take in at least a tray of Chick fil A nuggets a weekend, oops! Along with all day drinking every Saturday....and by Christmas I had gained about 7 pounds. Well, I start thinking...that's not too bad, I better get it off pronto though. Then winter hits and I have ZERO motivation to work out when I get off work and it is dark outside....and so it goes, here I am over a year after my wedding back where I started and I only have myself to blame. I have gotten better lately about working out, but I still can't seem to make it a 4 day a week routine. Something always comes up, and yes...I realize that it is my own lack of discipline and willpower that allows something to come up.
Okay, sorry for the rambling...but Jillian just made me start thinking about this yesterday and I realize how unfair life is...I mean duh...everyone should look like a super model without working out and eating french fries all day!
