Why?
Well, I saw my rear in the bedroom mirror when I got dressed yesterday and it is as BIG AS A BUICK!
And not the now Buicks either. I'm talking the 1970's ones- the ones that were called BOATS because they were so HUGE!
Yep- I have a butt the size of a BUICK and my thighs have become entities unto themselves... I have never had 'inner' thigh problems... outer thigh, hips, waist, but not inner thigh... OMG! I have old lady thighs... or maybe I have elephantiasis... that MUST be it... but my elephantiasis is concentrated in the rear and thigh area...
I eat healthy and I exercise- really I do!
I came down stairs to the kitchen and put on coffee. I went down stairs to the laundry room. I came back upstairs to the kitchen. I went back up stairs to the bedroom. On the upstairs runs I was carrying the freshly laundered clothes and you know, that exercise stuff works cux it was LIGHTER than it was when I carried it down!
I admit I did some lunges too... I did 8 cuz all the exercise gurus say to do 8 reps, and man were my thighs burning after those 8... then I realized they meant to do 8 reps of 8... Ummm , according to my math that is like 64? lunges... why didn't they just say DO 64 LUNGES in the first place?
So, I did 48... I figure I gotta work my way up to the 64. Then I went down stairs to get the laundry. Guess that means I really got a work out?
Okay- give me a break! I was just traumatized by seeing a buick-sized butt in my bedroom... and it was on ME!
So back to the scale... I only got on it to see just how much a buick weighs... and now I know... about the same as a whale.. ok a new-born whale... or me right before I gave birth to my youngest child- 11 YEARS AGO!
Note to self:
1) buy more salad fixins
2) eat more yogurt and oatmeal
3) snack on carrot sticks(sans dressing)
4) throw away the Gosh Darn Scale! ( or at least put it somewhere I never go like...the gym!)

Cute post! Good luck with changing your food choices.
I'm LOLing here.....you are too funny, Dawn!!!
I saw your post in the SITS rollcall & I just had to see what all the commotion was about. So, a car show, huh? LMAO<---well if laughing helps to remove the ass...we should all do it some more:)
I have to say that I am going through somewhat of the same crisis. I actually have said just recently, that I weigh as much as I did when I delivered my daughter...what the bleepity-bleep is going on?
Well, I finally found out yesterday and shame on me for not going to the doc's more regularly b/c it might not be this bad. I've got killer low levels of B12 and now need injections, an under-producing thyroid and now need meds & freakin' fibroids that are huge and now need removed.
Sooooo, I'm saying all this in case you're anything like me...stubborn as a mule...and don't like to go to the doctors' for check-ups. You should go! I've always eaten sort of well and filled up on the good stuff, but my body evidently has a mind of it's own...I'm like Sybil here. LMAO (again, trying) :D
Take care of you and I'm wishing you a Happy & Healthy New Year!! Oh, and I'm a follower now too!
SO identify that I'm making this my post for the day. (just with a link, babe. Didn't steal it.) Oh, and thanks for doing those lunges so I didn't have to!
Good luck with that.
Sometimes I want to throw out my scale.
I. Hate. Lunges. Good for you for getting them done. I'm not even sure I would have done 8.
Visiting over from SITS :)
