My dear Internets,
I have kept a secret from you for the past six months. My DH and I have been going to the gym religiously for the past six months. No lie....six months. He goes to his work gym at o dark thirty every single day, and I go to mine. (Mine is nicer, but we won't tell him that because his is free and mine's not.) Anyway...the good news is that my DH has lost over 20 pounds. Yes, you read that correctly. And no...I didn't inadvertently leave my results off. Now I ask you....is that fair?!

Seriously. I suffer from the same problem. Bitterness is my middle name.
Yes, how does that happen?! Same problem here. Except it seems like George doesn't even have to hit the gym, and he just looses a few pounds here and there, when he says he 'just simply chooses to eat little less'. Yeah.. well, it sure doesn't happen to me, when I choose to eat less. So unfair!
But I totally salute you guys for going to the gym.
And super cute pictures from Anne's shower, by the way!
And where are the pictures?!?!?!?!
Hey we are really proud of the the two of you. I think that you both look terrific and I can't wait to see you. I just can't believe how fast the time is going by. Just know that we love ya.
I hear ya there! It is SO frustrating....I wish the men could have the hormones. I believe its all their fault...the hormones I mean!
In another 6 months do we get a before and after picture?
Good work!

Me toooo!! my dh has gotten so slim I had to buy him a new suit and belt because the pants were puckering. I got on the scale and YuP everything is just as it has been for the last 10 dam years. I am just tired of the same old stuff. I try to hold my head up so you dont see all the chins but, it doesn't work. Love ya
Not fair, but it never is, the guys act like they want to lose wieght and bamb, there goes five pounds. Just tell everybody you didn't really want to lose any weight, you just wanted to feel better!!
The first time I saw one of those "this is how my husband loses weight, and this is how I do it" commercials- I had the TV on mute and was talking on the phone, not really paying attention at all.
The man shrinks, then the lady points to herself and her boobs disappear. I knew exactly what she'd just said and I lost it. So funny, and oh so painfully true!
Keep it up, Diane. I know you feel better than you did. You are stronger than you were. You are more confident, you know it. The weight thing will balance out too. :)
Also, have you thought about lifting heavy weights? You won't look like a man, I promise. But you will start to burn calories in your sleep. Tell me that's not cool.
Three sets of 8-10 reps. The last rep should be very hard or you don't have enough weight on. If you cant do at least 8 reps, you have too much weight on.
Lift three times a week, full body. Or lift every day except weekends and mix it up between upper body and lower body.
Then just keep doing the cardio you've been doing.
Don't talk yourself out of a great lifestyle change because it takes longer than you want. Don't tell yourself you're too old or too tired. Stopping is what will make you old and tired.
I thought you looked pretty damned good the other day.
My workout buddy is 62 years old in numbers. In reality she keeps up with me just fine. At times, she even kicks my butt. She looks amazing! She didn't always.
You're younger than her by a lot, in numbers. You'll get there too.
Pick up the heavy weights, I'm tellin ya. They are the astounding equilizers!
I guess I should throw in one little warning. My friend and I... neither one of us have boobs. Yeah... that commercial is very true.
But that is the only ill side effect that either of us has suffered, I promise.
Well, I for one was able to see the fruits your labor even if you were not. You looked GREAT the other night. It was so good to see you even if just for a couple of min. Congrats on the last one getting married. Now, bring on the grandbabies! :) Hope that the rest of your stay was nice.
Mom, it's time for a new post! I am dying to see pictures from Michael and Anne's wedding and you should post a picture of Dad...he looks so good!
