My Skinny Jeans Taunt Me

Whew, where have I been lately?! It seems like this month is really flying by. January whizzed by and I just looked at my desk calendar only to realize it’s almost mid-February!! How are you guys doing on your New Year’s resolutions? Did you even make a New Year’s resolution?

My basic theme in 2008 is getting healthy, well healthier that is. I’m trying to hit the gym at least three times a week, consume a (heart) healthy diet and try to avoid adapting any lifestyle habits that might be detrimental in the long run.

Much to my surprise, and chagrin, I have lost ANY weight yet. Actually, I’ve gained weight. Can you believe it? I can’t understand and I must admit, it certainly doesn’t help to motivate me. I just have to keep telling myself muscle weighs more than fat and these new healthy habits will pay off in the long run. I’m not even going to act like I need to lose weight. I’m a petite girl and weight has never been a problem but man would it be nice to fit into that skinny pair of jeans that keeps taunting me from my closet.

Have any of you run into a similar problem? You know, when you think you’re doing everything right only to come to find out it hasn’t done a bit of good?
