All I Want For Christmas....

I can't believe it's only 8 weeks until Christmas. I also can't believe I've gained 25 pounds in the last 6 months!!!

How can that be??? I'm hardly recognizable to myself!

I would love to be able to blame my weight gain solely on my steroid use, but the truth is that I've been eating like it's my J.O.B.

I have struggled with my weight my entire life, but the last 6 months have been especially hard. I have had the most voracious appetite! Even if taking steroids does increase your appetite...you don't have to act on it. I mean, steroids don't force you in to the kitchen and make you open the refrigerator...and your mouth. Right?? Right!

What has happened to my self-control? I have none. Zero. Zilch. Zippy.

Okay. Here's the point of my post. I want to lose 15 pounds by Christmas. That's all I want and it doesn't cost a thing!

My hope is that by putting this out here in blogland I might actually stay out of the kitchen...and reach my goal.

I'll keep you posted (pun intended) on my progress.
