What's up with Bikinis?

This is my rant!!!

Nate and I were talking the other day about how some of the ladies at his work are using Alli to help them with their weight loss goals. He suggested that I may be successful using it. Of course the crazy in me came out ready to fight.
I don't want to exercise, I don't want to go on a diet and I don't see why it really matters!!!
I know I am soft and that is something I am willing to deal with because I love cookies and ice cream and cheese. But not all together! The problem with this conversation is that he was trying to help me find something I could have success with and I had already decided that diets make me grumpy, I hate following an eating plan and I am just going to accept myself the way I am and love me for me.
Besides, if I were to be successful and actually lose weight then my clothes wouldn't fit and then where would we be? I mean, REALLY!

So tonight everyone is asleep and I am searching the internet. I bought the Alli eating plan book today(at the dollar store) and another healthy eating book. I also signed up for Jillian Micheals online. I like that her online program is just like her-realistic with no BS.

I am not sure if any of them will be helpful because once again, it all comes down to how you eat. But I am trying. I really don't see the need to lose weight. I know I am soft, but I am not far from my healthy weight for my height. I love candy and I am not sure I am really, well I'll tell you outright-I hate exercise and I am not motivated by being skinny anymore. Not that I want to be a blimp, but it's unrealistic for me to want to be super thin. It just isn't in the cards or stars or anything else.

I don't have any carrots hanging in the future-like a cruise or class reunion- and sadly, being healthy isn't that much of a motivation. But my health is important to Nate. So, because I want to be attractive to him, I am going to empower myself and put forth a little effort. I guess we'll see how long that lasts. Because being empowered is very sexy. :)

  1. Yea, you have a blog! I love you. You are hot just the way you are, you look freeking great. Any your body has produced a person, mommies aren't meant to be on "sexiest swimsuit bodies" E! special.

    Maybe for the health thing you could comprimise and like trade a daily bowl of ice cream for a bowl of strawberries or something. (Or however much you feel you can do and stick to it.) If you try really hard to diet and you don't even want to in the first place, you may not have too much success.
