diet, shmeit.

If I bring myself to think about it, I mean REALLY think about it, I've been on a diet on and off since the age of about 12. I'm fairly lucky that I've never really had to cut something totally out of my life; I've been known to eat my share of pizza and brownies, etc. But somehow, I gained almost 30 pounds in the last 3 years...obviously I KNEW it was happening because I couldn't fit into any of my jeans anymore, but I'm not really sure HOW exactly it happened. I guess food and laziness are the major causes, but I don't really recall eating more at every meal in the last few years than I did before. Now that I want to exercise, my knees hurt, my chins hurt, my elbow and shoulders pop. Getting old really is a beeotch! Youth, why must you mock me?
