I'm too fat for my fat pants!

So I haven't blogged in over a year. That's because I became a graduate student and I became fat again. The two are apparently linked as I had no time to exercise and no money to buy healthy food. I gained back all of the 45 pounds I lost plus an additional 5+ pounds. My double chin wiggles while I walk (as well as the rest of me) and I can feel my FUPA (see earlier post) hit the tops of my thighs if I walk up a flight of stairs. This last time I lost the weight I was under the delusion that THIS TIME I would keep it off and I threw away the fattest of my fat pants (sizes 20 and 22). But of course I gained it all back and was wishing I had kept those fat pants. When I was losing weight it wasn't a problem to find cheap "in-between" jeans at Savers in sizes 14 and 12. But I found out its not so easy to find 18s and 20s. So I had to pay full price for fat jeans at Wal-Mart ($24.95!!!). Anway, the chub stops here (!) because I am planning a very active vacation after graduation and I want to be able to enjoy it. I will also be looking for a new job in the summer and don't want to interview looking like a fat slob. Wish me luck as I start on this journey, AGAIN.
