Why the muffin top??

OK - so maybe it's because it's 2AM and I have 4 more hours to go at work but I just had a goofy moment that I thought was appropriate to share with MFP.

I was talking to a friend that has lost about 40 lb's and counting (thanks to WW online) about the weight I've put on since meeting my husband. (About 40 lb's coincedentally) After she tells me that she never would have guessed, I look down at my muffin top and think "you wouldn't??" Then it hits me... I didn't get this from eating muffins!!!

I HEREBY DECLARE THE TERM "MUFFIN TOP" OBSOLETE! The new term shall be CUPCAKE TOP!!! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :noway:

I disagree -- problem just hidden. Next thing you know you're 20, 30, 50+ lbs heavier because you're just hiding the issues. By wearing pants that fit - not skin tight, but not hanging like a sack either - I realized one day when I saw a reflection of myself in a window that something had to give. My own personal motivator..
