sick of feeling fat!

[MrsB30]

so I quit smoking almost 2 years ago and definatley gained the weight people talk about when you quit. I gained close to 20 pounds! I worked my butt off to lose it and only managed to get about 8 pounds off with diet and exercise. (I was only 125 to begin with so its not like I got huge!)
Anyways after getting a second job and becoming a wife I have gained another 20 pounds and just dont have the time to get to the gym or out for a run or walk each day or week or even month!!!! I work 65 hours a week and am also trying to find time to spend as a couple. I am defeated and tired of having an excuse to why I cant lose weight.
Any suggestions for someone who wants to shed some pounds but just cant find the time for a proper routine????

Thanks

My advice would be to forget the exercise for now and concentrate on what you eat. You CAN get to your ideal weight without exercise as nutrition is 80% of the battle anyway. Get rid of the junk in your house (processed carbs like white bread/pasta/rice, sweets, soda etc) and stock up on lean proteins (chicken, fish esp. fatty fish like salmon/tuna) and lots of veggie and fruits and salad. Don't starve yourself, just eat small regular meals to rev up your metabolism. You can do it!

I would love it if I could get rid of all the junk! Problem is my hubby is a junk food fanatic and hes weighed the same since we met 8 years ago!!! Hes got a super high metabolism I guess. I dont eat too much junk but when I do I eat it all day!
I have started making sure there is always fresh fruit and veggies so when I want something sweet I grab an orange or an apple.
I guess its just hard looking at a stranger in the mirror all the time and never feeling confident but I am sure I will get there!
Thanks girls
