Unless you live in a hole, you have probably seen the recent ad campaign for Slimquick.
The children have clearly seen these commercials and believe the product will work.
SCENE: Crowed Wal-Mart last weekend. Children in the cart. We enter the vitamin aisle.
IN UNISON (at a volume that could be heard throughout the entire health and beauty department) : Mommy, mommy, stop! There it is!
ME: There what is?
THEM: The stuff you need so you won't have such a big butt. Here lets get two because you really need it.
And so it goes...
I'm back on a diet.
Now in all honesty, I have not done anything to attempt to get healthy for the past year. And consequently, I now weigh as much as a linebacker (not a running back, a linebacker.)
Sure, I've thought about it. But, I've also thought about all the reasons why I should eat nachos at 10 at night while watching Chelsea Lately. I feel like I have earned that down time. Why ruin it with exercise?
But, I'm really unhappy about the way I look and most of the time I am too exhausted from lugging around 46% body fat to even think about fixing it. I have considered starting a second blog to try to hold myself accountable like this guy did, but I'm too ashamed to actually post how much I really weigh. So, as a compromise, I have decided that I will post how much weight I lose each week on this blog. Depending on how that goes, I will determine if I need to get more aggressive with accountability partners.
So, wish me luck and if you have any tips, please feel free to send them my way!
