I’m officially about 20 pounds overweight. There’s a couple of reasons behind it — a bit of a lazy summer leading to a back injury which really cut down on my exercise. Then a new job which both cut down on my exercise time and put me in the midst of overly tempting food choices for lunch. Then a groin injury which limited my exercise options again.
I’m now paying attention to losing my weight, but I having a hard time feeling comfortable in my body. My pants are too tight and hunger doesn’t suit my personality. The lack of exercise is leading to other assorted aches and pains, and generally just making me feel out of sorts.
I feel like things are slowly improving, but the start of any weight loss program is always a frustrating time.

I know how you feel. I have about 40 pounds to drop myself. I haven’t been comfortable in my body in 10 years and 30 pounds ago. It is painfully difficult to get motivated to change. While I want to change, the actual act is hard for me.
