Tomorrow, I am participating in "Show Us Your Life" over at Kelly's Korner, an adorable blog that I immediately started stalking when I found it. (I also added her daughter's name to my list of future baby ids... Harper = Adorable and Classy.) Anyway, she is doing this fun thing where bloggers are asked to write on a certain topic about their lives every Friday. This week's topic is -- none other than, DIETS and WEIGHT LOSS. (Lucky for my readers, I am an expert at talking about these topics.)
BUT FIRST, before I give any enlightening information, let me give you a glimpse into my reality:
Tuesday night we had a friend over for dinner. After dinner, we began a discussion about New Year's diets. The conversation between he and my husband went something like this:
Friend: "Have I told you about the new work-out plan I've started? It's called the Call of Duty Exercise Plan."
Jeff: "Does it involve playing video games and eating chips?"
Friend: "Kind-of. You know those 45 seconds in between games when the screen re-sets? I get up and do push-ups and sit-ups then. It is great. I am so sore the next day, and I think it is working."
Jeff: "Awesome. I'll start tomorrow."
See what I'm up against?!?! This wasn't any more help than reading in US Weekly that Holly Robinson Peete uses a "coffee enema" to lose weight. Gross!
Ha! STAY TUNED for my post tomorrow... I promise to offer a little bit more help than this, PLUS, a healthy dose of ridiculousness. :)
Question: When you weigh yourself, do you think "Well, my wedding ring/band are over a carat so that's what...2 lbs? And my hair is getting pretty long...another 2 lbs probably. Oh, and I was wearing a necklace- 1 lb. These earrings are pretty heavy pearls- 1 lb. I DID just take a shower so there's still water in my hair and in my skin that's adding another pound. So, what the scale says minus 7 lbs. Not bad!" Oooor is that just me?
ReplyDeleteHey! Harper is my baby name! I'm not much of a baby name person but it has been the only name on my list for years. I guess I can allow you to put it on your list. :)
