The Last Supper

I walked for 45 mins. on the treadmill this morning.  I have decided to do "The Instinct Diet" by Susan Roberts.  I start tomorrow.  I spent $166 at the grocery store tonight buying all the fruits and vegetables I will have to eat on this diet.  According to the book, losing weight can be fun and enjoyable.  I feel no fun or enjoyment when looking at the "menu" I will follow for the next 2 weeks (with slight modifications for 100 calorie "treats" thereafter -- i.e. 1/3 slice of pizza -- Oh Joy!)  As part of my "last supper" Chippens gave me a Little Debbie snack cake.  Tears rolled down my cheeks as I tasted it and reminisced about the good ole middle school years when I used to eat those for lunch and not worry at all about how many calories they had...

Raj has just declared that this diet is easy and nothing more than "will power" and he feels he can join me in it.  Now that I have some competition in this endeavor, I will no doubt be more likely to succeed!

Sounds more like the Gitmo diet. Who designed this? Rummy and Dick? Instead of spending all that money at the grocery store, why not just peel some bark of the trees in the lawn and rustle up some fresh grub with the birds every morning.

Make sure you eat all the food groups and EXERCISE! Losing weight is simply "less calories in and more calories out", not necessarily what you eat.

Wait... does this mean no more Puran?
