Happy Fat

I have a fear, a very big thing that I REFUSE to let happen.

The Happy fat coming back.

Happy Fat Right before I started Losing weight.

 We were on vacation in Seattle, WA and I started changing my life when we got back. So glad that I did. YUCK. Late April 2010

Happy fat is what you get when you get into a new relationship and you are so freaking happy all you do is go out to dinner and eat ice cream off each others body's. Okay, to each their own but you get the idea. When you get into a relationship with someone you go out, you go to the movies and "split" a popcorn and jumbo coke (because he loves coke even thought you know you should be drinking diet  you end up drinking more regular coke than him because it just tastes so much better than you remember and the idea of getting two separate drinks just isn't as cute or economical as getting one and sharing the straw) Not to mention the 12 splashes of EXTRA butter for the  popcorn you both agree on because hey, it's date night and those calories don't count. UMM HMM. Big Mistake.

I experienced this Happy Fat during the first 3 years the Hubs and I were dating. Outback servers knew my name, the movies had my buttered popcorn ready and his gummies waiting, and if Cold Stone Creamery had a frequent flyer card I'd be on my 100th free scoop.

Damn you happiness.

I gained 40lbs in 3 years.

(Thats like a 2 year old!)

BAM. Go to Fat Jail.

Do NOT pass go Do NOT collect $200.00

Anyways, After a year now of working out for the wedding 51 lbs are GONE and I still have work to do but I am happy. I'm smaller than I was when I met the Hubs and I no longer get 12 splashes of butter on the popcorn and we do Coke Zero now. We only visit Cold Stone once ever couple of months and I haven't been to Outback in awhile. We don't order pizza ever week and I cook A LOT of fish (which is mmmAMAZING) Life is healthier now, We go to the gym together and try and be as active as possible.

But, I'm still worried.

Every single person I know that gets married gains weight. It's the Married Fat. I REFUSE to be apart of that terrible cycle ever again. I will break the mold and focus on losing even more; however, I feel myself being more relaxed. Yes, I did successfully resist the Krispy Kream Donuts and Boiled Peanuts at work yesterday but my freezer is full of Mini Cheesecake Bites that were leftovers from the wedding. I can not resist them I've been eating way to many this week. Probably 25 seriously. RIDICULOUS.

I'm getting rid of them Tomorrow at the in laws Fathers Day thing. I have to make this stop. I will NOT get Married Fat due to these amazingly delicious morsels.

Damn you Cheesecake Bites.

I'm going to the gym now try #3 since the Moon full of Honey.

(which we ate like CRAP during and drank way to many calories)

I didn't work out for almost 2 weeks due to the wedding and honeymoon and I can tell...I've been sucking lately and my muscles are sore and I can barley run 2 miles straight when I was knocking out 4 straight before the off time. I've just got to stay focused and build back up but MAN that is annoying.

I'm also going to go back to spin class next Thursday.

Pray for my ass people.

 Pray.
