    Well, I got in a relationship about 20 years ago. Eight kids later, it's time to get healthy so that I can keep up and continue to hike and ski. It is hard to stay motivated, some days you're like, maybe being fat is better than doing this.

    Being fat most definitely would be easier!! I always get a pang of guilt though looking at my old dresses and through old pictures. Then comes the thoughts 'why did I let it go this far!' well not anymore. Bought a rowing machine yesterday let's see how it goes xxx

    Yikes!

    I guess a relationship can go two ways...

    you order all your favourite foods together, relax on the couch eating junk food, get really comfortable around each other and let yourself go a little bit

    or

    you exercise together, have lots of sex, cook together, try to look your best for the other person

    I know which way I'd rather go, but I'd probably sabotage both of us to be honest.

    We actually do both thank you very much. This weight has creeped on steadily over four years. Still a sexy size 14! Unfortunately the weighing scales don't break it down to muscle!
