Waiting on the Weight

Have you ever started a very rigorous exercise routine, thinking you might start seeing results within the next month or so? Only to find, of course, that you are still waiting . . . two months later? And you are acutally GAINING (that's right, GAINING) weight?


"How can this be?", you ask.



1- Maybe you have a thyroid problem (most often NOT the case).




2- Maybe you are under-estimating your in-take. Once again, simple mathematics can rule this out (although this is statistically the most common problem when one finds themself in this situation).



3- Maybe your exercise routine isn't really THAT intense?? (I'll give this one to you, but trust me, mine is).




4- Maybe you should throw your hands in the air, give up, and just take the dang pregnancy test already.



So I did. I am due at the end of October. ;)
