Oh, god - I can't fit into my pants. At all. I think it is probably because of my birth control pill, so I've stopped it even though it brought me such hormonal peace and joy (and no children!) but I *have* to be able to wear my clothes and my knee and ankles need less weight on them. They needed less weight BEFORE my pants got too snug.

So, I've started a diet and I've been good. I've been soooo good it hurts. I am counting calories and watching protein intake and downing yogurt like a rockstar (that might have more to do with vidding Burn Notice) and nothing. Nada. I had to run to Gabriel Brothers and buy some cheap pants in a size up to kind of get me through. I am very sad about this. And I am resentful because the old me could have dropped the weight like it's hot by now and this sucks.

And I am taking all this time just to say - I totally get how discouraged you feel right now. I am gonna keep trying (for now) and possibly adding more (any?) exercise into the mix. I think I am getting angry which might work for motivation. I'll show my body who is boss. Or I might need my thyroid checked (like they said in the above comments) - that is actually a really good idea.
