Tales of failure, success, and the craziness that is dieting!
1. Locate a good looking guy that is jogging and chase him. Hey, having something to chase could work.I better go start filling out the forms for my patent. I mean "shock" therapy to stop eating could work. Of course, if all of the above fails, I could always rely on my family and friends to continue giving me their support, encouragement, and recipes. It might not motivate me to exercise and stop being an emotional eater, but it does give me hope! It makes me work harder and not give up. Hum...maybe I am motivated!
2. Getting paid to lose weight. Not gonna happen...next.
3. Sharing stories with others that are just as frustrated as I am. This could work, but what about eating?
4. Treat myself like an addict and give up chocolate forever. Maybe find a support group for Chocoholics Anonymous. It is a thought, but give up chocolate forever...not gonna happen.
5. Put an underground electric "fence" around my fridge like people have in their yards for dogs. It just might work!
1)24 Hour Fitness or Lifetime Fitness...
The fact of the matter is, I WANT to work out. My problem is I'm not sure what exercise will best help me lose weight without further injury to my hips and back. I need guidance, I just can't afford it.
2) Sonic....I know what you are thinking, Sonic isn't healthy. However, if someone could come up with the Sonic Drink Diet, I'd jump all over that. Who doesn't love Sonic drinks? And can I just say "Thanks" to the marketing department that came up with Sonic Happy Hour. I must admit, it is one of my happiest hours.
3) Chipotle...I could make this work if I did all protein and watched my portion size. Who am I kidding, I love their burritos with rice. Ok...Chipotle is out of the running...darn it!
4)bd's Mongolian BBQ...Please, oh please call me. I seriously could eat there everyday!
I would wear t-shirts, I would learn how to work the grill, I would give out coupons to all my loved ones (Paul & Meagan start praying for this one). I honestly think that bd's could benefit just like Subway. Of course, they are already a huge success, but by marketing to those trying to lose weight they could add more restaurants. Pittsburg NEEDS one! Call me, write me, tweet me...help a fat girl's dream come true. Too much? Help a slightly overweight girl help others...think of it as charity! Still too much? I'm on my knees begging and won't get up until I hear from you. Yep...just the right amount of aloofness.
My 2011 Weight Loss Poem
What can I say, this is not the way,
I saw my year going, with my weight yo-yoing.
I'm sick of feeling awful, and now I crave a waffle.
I wish the snow would go, so I no longer grow,
big and wide, but a woman full of pride.
For I plan to eat right, so my clothes aren't too tight,
and workout like crazy and just quit being lazy.
2011 I thought would be heaven,
instead it has been rough and I look like a cream puff.
So, today is the date that I start to lose weight.
Wish me luck, so I don't get stuck,
in a rut with all of the weight going to my butt!
