Ok, so now I feel better! Turns out Kathy Ireland, one of the supermodels of the eighties, let things get out of hand, too! Apparently, she developed a serious sugar habit while she was busy raising her kids, being married to an emergency room doctor, and just generally living her life. I think we can all understand that! I mean, my kids are way older now, Ryan is 23 and Sam is 17, so it's not like I have little ones at home who need to be tended to, and still, before I knew it, I was heavier than I've ever been!

Which leads me to thanking everybody for all the nice emails of support after my last blog. I got lots of great suggestions about where to find jeans to fit my booty and "you-go-girl's" in regards to trying to lose weight.

A little update: for the first time this morning, I put on my pair of jeans that were just out of the dryer . . . and I didn't have to do deep knee bends to stretch them out! Don't you hate the way your jeans shrink in the dryer? I do! So I took it as a great little victory that they were comfortable right away. *heavy sigh* I guess that means that eating fewer brownies and drinking fewer Cokes really does work, so I'll have to keep doing it. Oh well, it's worth being able to feel smug in the morning when I pull on my jeans! Stay tuned!
