Diet is DIE with a t

So my BFF and I started back at Weight Watchers last week. I actually lost 7 lbs. this week so I was stoked. I'm finding it eaiser to follow the program this time around (uh, the 3rd time's the charm LOL). I belive the difference for me is the fact that I cook EVERY day. I didn't do that before. It takes a lot of planning but I seem to have a pretty good system down now.

The problem with me is that I HATE to exercise. I friggen HATE it with a passion. It's boring to me. I've tried pretty much everything like walking with a friend, walking in the mall (very, very bad, I spent $125 that day), working out at the Y (not lunching, working out!), the treadmill at home (purchased like 5 years ago and still in MINT condition much to husband's dismay LOL), eliptical (I thought I was going to die after 2 minutes, seriously. How out of shape am I?)

Hate... them... all

I know I need to do it so I will. I'll also still hate every minute of it. I'm thinking of putting the portable DVD player downstairs so I can watch Big Love season 2 while I'm "walking my way to fitness" (LMAO, how gay does that sound). Maybe that'll work. I'd strap the computer on but who can type while they're walking? I haven't mastered that yet.

I made a diet resolution though. I swore off all fast food for 2008*. This means that when I do my monthly "eat what I want day", I will not indulge in any fast food (I'll miss you the most Mr. Taco Bell Carmel Apple Empanada. Your 300 calories and 15 grams of fat will have to attach to another ass, mine's exit only). When you start looking at the nutritional values of some of that food, you'll seriously throw up in your mouth. I honestly cannot eat something that has 50 some grams of fat in it**. I have to say the BEST diet tip is to be sitting in say, Wendy's, and have some crazed teen whip a shit pie at you while you're eating your 420 calorie, 20 grams of fat 1/4 lb. single. I suspect you'd put down that burger and have no desire to pick it up again.



I'll leave you with my new motivational slogan




*exception to this is pizza. Not in a million years would I give up that cheesy goodness.

**pizza doesn't count. It could have 100 grams of fat in it and I'd still eat it. I'd probably have to work out for 4 minutes on the eliptical but I'd be worth it!
