About Me

It took me until this moment to realize that getting older really does suck.  I turned 30 this year and despite what people may tell you, it's definetly not the new 20. 
OK, here's my quest... I need to get my fat 30 year old ass into my skinny 20 year old ass jeans.
I haven't quite decided how that is going to happen yet though.
I have read many an article about avoiding carbs, not eating fat, doing 30 minutes of cardio a day...it all seems a little too structured for me. My life is structured enough as it is, I live by tight schedules (and a tight waistband) and I just can't seem denying myself the satisfaction of a double stuffed Oreo dipped in a glass of cold milk. And here the problem lies.
I have no idea how many pounds I need to lose, or how many inches I have to melt off. I can tell you that my goal is to fit into my size 8 American Eagle jeans. I mean I want them zipped and buttoned and I would like to be able to sit in them for a lengthy amount of time.
So now I start, once I figure out how to post a picture of the desired jeans I will. I may even post a picture of me trying to get into the jeans now... but we don't know each other that well.
