Dear Betsy,
Remember that one time you started a weight-loss blog only to put up two posts and then neglect it horribly? And where did that get you exactly? Oh, that's right, more than 10 pounds HEAVIER than when you started it in the first place. Good going, champ. But seriously, how's that working for you? Not at all you say? Weighing in at 211.0 this morning doesn't put a cheerful grin all over your face, huh? You are obese, and it is time to do something about it. You have successfully lost weight in the past, and YOU CAN DO IT AGAIN.
Let's take a walk down memory lane, weight-wise, shall we? (thanks, fitday.com!)
6/2002 - 135 - my lowest adult weight. I was a STONE. COLD. FOX.
5/21/2003 - 152.5 - Put on about 15 pounds of happy weight after I got married
5/24/2004 - 159 - Still at a healthy weight technically, but higher than the previous year, and getting uncomfortable with my weight.
5/30/2005 - 153 - Back at a more comfortable weight.
5/8/2006 - 148 - 2005/2006 were banner years weight-wise. I got down to 141 in late 2005.
9/20/2006 - 157 - I gained almost 10 pounds in 4 months. Early warning sign of bad things to come.
3/24/2007 - 167 - I gained 10 MORE pounds in 6 months.
7/18/2007 - 183 - I gained 16 MORE pounds in 4 months. Failing marriage, anyone??
5/13/2008 - 175.8 - Was on my way back down post-divorce while living alone.
5/12/2009 - 190.1 - But then I started living with Mandy and dating Nick. This time the weight gain was 15 pounds of happy weight in 1 year.
Today - 211 - Gained 20 more pounds of happy weight since I married Nick. And stopped going to the gym full-stop. Yowza, self. Yowza.
Now, tell me, what do you want to weigh on your birthday this year?
Heavily,
Betsy

Rock it girlfriend! I'm right there with you. We'll do this together.
Sorry about your struggle, but pleased that you have gained happy weight since marrying Nick. I would be worried if you didn't ;)
Hang in there and soon you will be comfortable again. I believe in you!
Before you get carried away. Have you checked out all that loose skin on your mom. She looks fine in her size 12's now, but when she takes off the jeans, you get a topographical model of the Sierra Madres.
Maybe we should concentrate on our nice tight skin.
