It’s a gut feeling
A while back I wrote about my battle of the bulge. It’s not a huge bulge but I feel it and, frankly, I’m getting tired of feeling it. Back in November, when I first announced I was going to battle this bulge, I began working out at the Y two to three times a week and I was on my way. I was feeling good and beginning to look good (if I do say so myself). Then, my new job hit and, at first, I had no time to exercise. I was working 10-12 hour days and I was exhausted. But recently, the pace has slowed enough that I have been feeling like I need to work out again. I just needed a push.
That’s when I saw Darren write about his desire to get fit – codenamed Project X (X is for eXercise) and he invited others to join him. He even decided to start a blog to chronicle Project X. So, I impulsively said, “SIGN ME UP!”
So, I’m going to try this again. Darren’s already starting to work out. Me? I had to polish off the last sleeve of Thin Mints so I won’t get tempted when I start Project X. You know, a guys gotta be prepared.
Wish me luck!

Man oh man do I understand! I have to tell you though..my morning chuckle was this line: “Me? I had to polish off the last sleeve of Thin Mints so I won’t get tempted when I start Project X. You know, a guys gotta be prepared.”
THAT is classic!

Well, I would wish you good luck…But when people lose weight I tend to find it.

So, if I finish off my Thin Mints, then I will feel enough motivation to lose weight?

Thin Mints are the absolute best Girl Scout cookies, but don’t ever read the nutrition label.

This is pretty funny. I just finished a post on Project X where I admitted that I fell to a box of Thin Mints myself.
