As Granny used to say, "Shit or get off the pot."

Now that I am gainfully employed, I hereby declare there shall be no more excuses. I MUST reduce the square footage of my ass. I used all of my school and job angst as a handy dandy excuse to stop exercising. I went from running 10 miles per week and whaling hell out of my punching bag, to taking lots of naps and sitting on the couch as much as possible.

I done did what I shouldn't of done. I done got lazy. I've become a veritable Three Toed Sloth, the world's slowest mammal, so sedentary that algae grows on its furry coat.

Since the very thought of running makes me want to hang myself, I shan't do it. I shall, however, Power Walk with 10 lbs of weights strapped to my arms. It's a start.

If you ain't movin' you sittin' still... that's what Mammaw still says. Great advice for every moment in life. Oh, and good luck with the excercise too.

I have always wondered why sloths are so skinny. Serious look at some pictures of them, skin and bones, they could be on a Paris runway.

Damn vegans. ;-)

Oh and go you! *Sends tons of encouragement vibes your way* Unfortunately my weight loss solution doesn't work for very many people (breastfeeding... just add baby.)

I find that the San Francisco hills are helpful. My clothes almost fit again.
