For the millionth time, I suppose I’m going to try to lose some weight again, if I must, I guess, unsure. I’m at an all-time high. There’s no excuse for it. Life is busy, and there is stress, but that’s normal. Just poor habits… late-night snacking… too many bad lunches… too much dessert… lack of physical activity.
Yesterday, prior to lunchtime, I walked over to Meijer with the intention of buying some stuff that was bad for me. Microwave pizza, chips, pop… wasn’t sure exactly what, but I’d know it when I saw it. I started to feel sick simply looking at all the junk I was considering buying and eating.
I was incredibly humbled to pick up a 6-pack of Slim Fast and an apple. Only fat people drink Slim Fast, you know. I left 5 in the case, brought one into the office (hiding it as if it was some sort of illegal contraband) and threw it in the freezer. 30 minutes later, I went for it… I held my nose, prepared to taste some sort of horrible nastiness, and drank. (It wasn’t nearly as bad as I feared it would be.)
Doc says I’m 40 pounds over my ideal weight. (I’m surprised my blood pressure isn’t going crazy, but I suppose I’ve learned how to deal with stress better.) I have zero confidence in my ability to lose 40 — that would take a lot of focus and a longterm commitment, and when it comes to food consumption, that sounds impossible.
I need to start taking Pacer on jogs around the ‘hood. That’s his purpose… he’s my pace-dog…
something tells me our nacho extravaganza might be coming to an end.
but, call me this week because I am looking to lose a bit of poundage, and i’ve found that teamwork in this kind of stuff helps out.
wednesday night slim fast extravaganza?
unsure.
hmm……yeah, not sure how I feel bout that one. There’s only so many flavors until you run out and have to start from the beginning again.
Eh hem…didn’t you call your “fat person” sister to get advice on which flavor of slim-fast to buy at Meijer? Offended! J/K. I have no shame. Good luck bro.
good luck scott. youve done it before, you can do it again
