TOP TEN REASONS IT'S TIME TO GET IN SHAPE

10.Extra junk in the trunk is weighing your "vehicle" down, decreasing mobility, so to speak.
9.You've noticed, when flying coach, that the seats are shrinking.
8.The term back fat used to make you laugh, now it makes you cringe.
7.Gravity's effect on the body is proportionally equivalent to age. In other words, older=saggy.
6.It's not socially acceptable to go swimming in your jeans and a t-shirt.
5.Your dog is frequently described as "overweight" by others and "big-boned" by you.
4.Gardening, your idea of exercise, can only be done three months out of the year.
3.There's nothing "lite" about your cellulite.
2.Couch and bed yoga aren't producing the results you had hoped.


..................................and the number one reason it's time to get in shape NOW:



1.You're wearing mom jeans and you haven't had children.



Yes, dear readers, you have witnessed the impetus of my next challenge. The biggest (no pun intended) one yet. I vow not to become another pawn in the diet game, but to be sensible and mindful about food choices and physical activity. Holler at me with any do's and don'ts you know of. This challenge is ongoing, I realize. It'll take at least a decade to undo my body image issues/eating habits. Stay tuned for my inevitable foibles and accomplishments.
