I'm chubby. I've said it before and I can say it now. I HATE working out. I HATE sweating. I LOVE food. I haven't met too many foods that I don't LOVE - or even LURVE. However, it's pretty ridiculous how badly I've let myself go. I used to be quite the knock-out and now...we'll just say I now have some huge knockers.
My SIL's mother, who I adore, has inspired me to lose weight. As she literally worked her ass off over the last 3 - 4 months and I'm insanely jealous. I have no excuses now. I was using the fact that I was getting my MBA as an excuse...yeah right. Basically I can make anything into an excuse.
So here is the main reason: I'm trying to decide if I'm going to attend my 20 year High School reunion. EEEEKKK! 20 years!!! WTF?! Seriously! Where did the time go? We had a 5 year - ridiculous, half of the people were still in university. We had a 10 year - I was conveniently living in Japan at the time. Sorry folks, not paying to fly back. Now...my excuse is I'm fat. And frankly I don't know if I'm up to the questions...why aren't you married? why no kids? why are you fat? gee, you really let yourself go. Sigh...and I'm sure everyone is thinking I'm gay. If I was gay, I would be the first person to say it loud and proud, but I'm not.
So, I'm starting an 8 week bootcamp in January at a fitness center near me. I'm totally bugging out about it. I'm going tomorrow night to try out a class for free. We'll see if I can manage without keeling over. I'm actually more worried about my asthma than I am as to whether or not my fat ass can keep up.
Because an 8 week bootcamp is clearly not enough pressure for me, I have am also going to enroll in a 12 week human resources certification program starting in February. If I can make it to April significantly thinner with a certification in hand, it will be a miracle.
But I figure after all I've been through these last two years, between getting laid off twice, getting my MBA and selling my house and moving...I can do anything. I hope.

You have done more in your short life than most people do in entire ones, including living around the world in a non-English speaking country by yourself for 3+ years. So, yes, you CAN do anything.
I'm going to my 20 year this year as well. So excited b/c we're all reconnecting via FB and so far it seems all the stupid BS clique-y stuff is gone. Finally.
You really think someone would ask you why you're fat? That is some kind of rudeness!
