Well Fed...and ...well need to loose some of it now...

Spring is here, and summer is right around the corner, and we have realized that we need to loose some extra inches around the waste. I tried a medium shirt on the other day and I felt like the Hulk….you know I could barely move and if I flexed it would rip open..well more like buttons popping, and I would go blind when one hit me. So we talked about losing weight and what to do. Since I am not the chef of the house..I will leave it up to my man to cook differently. We are both meat and potatoe guys…and I love the butter…can not get enough!! Before I met him I never ate vegetables except peas and corn, and maybe some string beans. Salads – yeah right!! Now I will eat Caesar salads..love them, had one today, just with the croutons were crunchier, but I love Whole Foods!! I go in there and my eyes light up and I get excited…kinda like I just to at the mall food court – fries, hamburger, pizza, Chinese, all the options…too many to choose from. Going back to Whole Foods, I love the smells, the varieties of so much, I love to walk around there and look and smell, and taste when available. My trip today brought about a casear salad with chicken as stated before..yum yum..I ate that 3 hours ago…was full then but now hungry again. Why is it that good for you food makes you hungry a short time later, where as fried chicken and fries – I could be full the rest of the day. So this brings me back to what to do about losing some weight…I have always been a round boy, but now I am dunlapping over my jeans…I think that is the right word..I look like a damn muffin!! Wow that sounds good…wait no not healthy.!! We talked about walking more …not running…bad knees, and back…maybe roller skating, he likes, me I would be in the ER with a broken arm or leg..not helping the situation…..how about bike riding. Ok, then I thought the last time I rode a bike it was when I was 14…I am now 33. So the broken bones thought came back…or I could wear padding everywhere, and with the Texas heat I would probably sweat a few pounds away. Either way… I want to be a little thinner sometime in the next 3 months…that is the plan…now just have to work the details out….and my stomach is growling and wants something…but what….laters!!
