The War On My Muffin Top - Page 2

I've spent the last few years making excuses which mostly revolve around not having enough time and while it's true that I have a LOT less time than I did in my single and childless days, it's important that I make the time. Not just for me, but for my daughter. She doesn't need a mom with a six-pack, but she does deserve a mom who can run, jump, swim, ski, hike, climb and PLAY with her (without losing her breath)!

Beyond making the time is the real culprit - the excuses I've been making about my food intake. When I hear people say they can't lose weight no matter what they do, I know they are just lying to themselves like I have been. From someone who has been really fit and now could stand to lose 13 lbs of flab, there is no rocket science to fitness and weight loss. Eat less and better and get your body moving. End of story. All you have to do it do it. I have been eating like a pig for the last 3 years and if I keep it up, the 13 extra lbs is going to turn into 15, then 18, then 20 and, well, you get the picture.

I'm a comedian and I usually write something a little more entertaining and humorous, but this has been on my mind since squeezing into my favorite pair of jeans while on tour with The Mom Squad last weekend. While I could probably write an entire comedy bit about squeezing into tight jeans, I really don't want to.

No more excuses! It's time to kiss this muffin top good bye. (And I still get my cheat day on the weekends.)
