no pictures, please

"Christmas is coming, the goose is getting fat." Honk!
*******************
Because Christmas is growing ever closer, whether or not I am ready for it, I picked today to do my shopping for family friends. I dropped the wee ones off at playschool and headed to Wal-Mart.
Because I am under the influence of hormones, and feeling rawther bad about my seemingly ever-expanding girth, I was just SURE that someone was lurking in the aisles of the retail giant ready to snap a photo and add me to their list of offenders on their website: The People of Wal Mart.
Thankfully, I think I got away before they saw me.

ps- Express Lane.... 20 items or less...... "Super Speedy Checkout". yeah. sure.

i almost snapped a pic of a lady today who had a multi-toned spiked mullet & was wearing Heaven knows what in the "wal-mart's"

ah, tell me about expanding girths!! i hear and sympathise! this week has been a total write-off as far as healthy eating goes and it's only wednesday and i still have 2 more events to attend!!!

one surprising solution to the problem though, comes from those lovely people at nintendo!!! no, seriously!! nintendo!! i can HIGHLY recommend the nintendo wii with wii fit as an aid to shedding those extra pounds!

i had an unexpected cash windfall at the end of november and treated myself, figuring that beside the fact that unexpected money should be spent frivolously, i needed to do something to try to regain something of a figure. i also operated on the principle that it was WAY less expensive than annual gym membership and i could exercise in the warmth and comfort of my own living room!

well, what do you know?! 4 weeks later i've shed 7 pounds (and would have lost a bit more had i also stuck rigidly to the healthy eating plan!). i do the hula hoop, jogging and step thing, and now i've also gotten the wii fit plus "game", i do the flying thing which works my arms!

anyway, all of the shed pounds will probably go back on over the christmas holiday, but i shall hula hoop and fly my way back to semi-svelt-ness as soon as possible thereafter!!!

worth checking out, and the kids will love it!!!!

My Wii Fit might work a little better at me losing weight if I actually used it. :(

You are entirely too stylish to EVER end up on that Web site! It would never happen...unless of course you wore your bike shorts with a halter top & died your hair orange with a nice mullet! Hehehehe XO
