Friends, don't let this happen to you

So, studying for the bar... a painful endeavor. During the time that I was studying, I was also stressing as any logical law student is wont to do. When I stress, I stress eat.

And I figured that the last thing I wanted to do during this bar press is to put constraints on myself. So, anything that made me happy in the moment or temporarily relieved my anxiety, I indulged.

I indulged a lot. Stress eating + sitting around all day = pants that no longer fit.

I don't know how much weight I gained. Enough to limit my wardrobe to a few pairs of pants. And, I actually don't want to know, but now is the time for me to do something about it.

Other than whine, that is.

So I am. I started my "diet" yesterday. Cutting out the carbs. And it's hard because I love my carbs. I am also such a wimp about this that every day is a struggle. Day two and hear me whine! I haven't worked myself up to the exercise part yet -- and I know it's the most important key to losing weight. My metabolism is in the crapper, so I will have to get off my big, fat, lazy ass and do more than just walk to work and back.

::sigh::

I keep telling myself that I'll do more when the weather is better, but I know that's crap too. Any suggestions on how to make exercise actually fun???

I feel like a loser right now, but I want to actually be one.
