When you reach 26...

So I am completely convinced that age 26 is the age where it all goes downhill. For NO APPARENT REASON! What happened when I turned 26? I gained 7 pounds...then spent 3 months (so far) trying to get rid of it...to NO avail. :( I mean, it is completely crazy. I eat right, I exercise, I do all I'm supposed to...but nope. I've turned 26. Nothing works anymore. Talk about frustrating. But I am determined to keep it up. Months of dedication has GOT to show results at some point, right? Well, I'll let you know as soon as I do...
