They say that you're most likely to gain weight right after you're married. We were so sure that we would be different and avoid it- and, for the most part, we have... however, we have difficulty finding time to work out. When I was in high school, I thought that it would be easy to stay loose and flexible, I never thought that at the age of 20, I would already lose the skill of holding my leg up to my head- I can now stretch my leg to be parallel with my hip. BLAST.
So... I am starting to stretch every night before bed. I'm also contemplating making a sacrifice to the weather gods for warm weather and inversion-free atmosphere so I don't worry about damaging my lungs. Join me if you'd like.
We were also getting worried that our bad eating habits would catch up with us, so we are avoiding our beloved Little Ceasar's pizza and Casper's ice cream, and have filled our fridge with fruits, veggies, water bottles, Nutri-Grain bars and yogurt.
(We have chocolate ice cream in the freezer. I'm testing out my will power and I'm abstaining from it. I'm also trying to cut back on the blessed Diet Coke. If it comes down to the two, though, the Diet Coke is IN.)
In other news, we are both much happier with our courses this semester. Cam is enjoying all of his media and PR classes, and I am back with all of my fellow grammar geeks, where I belong!
Update on the bomb threat situation-which was a bogus call from some stupid kid- between the cost of food and loss of business, Iron Gate lost nearly $20,000 that night. BUT- good, honest people have been coming back and paying for their bills. That is the final lift for the story.
Also- we learned that white sheets are not the best thing. Especially when your husband has a cut on his elbow that bleeds often.

So, I managed to avoid the stupid curse of gaining weight when you get married. The semester that Brig and I got married I had signed up for the Air Force exercise class so I could go work out with him in the early mornings. Needless to say...it worked. They definitely knew how to kick my butt and keep me in shape. I'm actually contemplating going with him again this semester.So there you have it....if you work out with the Air Force, you can avoid gaining weight after you have gotten married.
I have been eating Haagen-dazs ice cream everynight for the past week! True confession! Good for you and the sake of keeping a hot bod! I wish you luck in your stretching endeavors! ha!
It's only 7:49am and now I am craving pizza. Thanks a lot. ;)
That cracks me up Haley! I'm glad to hear that your semesters are going better for you two! Mine is going millions better as well. Hope to bump into you around campus sometime soon! Love ya!
