Will this straw break the camel's back?
Monday night and I was putting out my work clothes for the next morning as I usually do. Decided to try on my jeans (yes, I dress down at work) and HORROR OF HORRORS!!! Couldn't get it buttoned! Calm down... maybe it shrunk in the dryer. Put on another pair and OHMIGOSH!! I couldn't button it either!
When did this happen?!! I swear I wore them only a few weeks ago. Yes, they were a bit tight then but I never imagined this day would come so soon! Stepped on the scale and I'm only less than 2kgs short of my weight in early 2004 before I lost weight for the wedding. All that hard work and determination down the drain....
Sat down (and couldn't help but notice that my spare tyre is on the verge of doubling! SOB!!) and thought about it and came to the conclusion that it's the increase of sugar in my diet (from all the cakes I've been baking plus the CNY goodies) that has added to my girth. Doesn't help when your colleague bakes fantastic cookies either!
Hubby mentioned to his mum the next day that I've become fatter and she agreed as well! In a way, that's a good thing 'coz she will understand if I don't eat as much as I normally do when we go for meals at their house.
This calls for desperate measures. The eating binge has gone on for far too long (since November) and the workouts have been taking a backseat. Gonna go back on my low-carb diet and hopefully shed of some of these before my study stress begins again in March. Been going to the gym every morning except today (going after work later). The big question is.... how long can I keep this up? There's no longer the motivation to look good on my wedding day.
Hmm.... now that's a thought... You think hubby would want to get married all over again?

At least you had a wedding to get motivated for! Don't worry, everytime you think of the extra CNY pounds acquired, know that we're all in the same boat.
