It Has Finally Become a Reality!

I enjoy the month of November...

Justin's birthday falls in this month, the turkey holiday, the fall colors,

and it means that I can finally start listening to Christmas music!

However, one major event takes place each November,

holding this poor month back from being my all time favorite month of the year.

...my dreaded annual appointment!.....

I get shivers down my spine just thinking of the torture

women are put through once each year, let

alone every single month!

Today was that day for me....I

obviously won't go into details, gross....

but I will say that one fact has finally become a reality and

somebody finally said something to my face!

I have gained too much weight this past year!

.......15 pounds to be exact!!!!!

My Doctor was just asking routine questions,

"How have you been feeling? Any problems lately?

How has your stomach been? Is your job stressful?

I see you've gained 15 pounds since last year....."

WHAT?!?!....back that freakin truck up!.....

I know I've put on a little extra "winter warmth" but 15 pounds.....gross!.....

But she was right, and I love how nonchalant she was about it!! haha.....

To her defense, she prefaced it as my "ideal weight would be 15 pounds lighter...."

than she cracked some stale joke about nobody is their

"Ideal weight" .....well Doctor, apparently some people are -

and 365 days ago, I was my ideal weight!

So I guess the ultimate question is,

how do I get from Point B, back to Point A?!
