diets are for fatties...

Whenever friends have dieted, I've always rolled my eyes... I never dieted.... Diets are for fatties.... So, what's going on in my head now????

Is is just the facebook post I saw the other day? My cousin, 370 lbs, {i can't imagine being that weight!}had been posting things with my sister, and I was reading their posts... ended up going to her blog and mainly just laughed at it... But, am I doing the same thing???? Look at my posts-Pumpkin Bread Pudding! OMG! How can I think that I'll lose weight eating that???? My cuz's blog was funny, because she was telling all about the fattening foods she was having, and lack of exercise, too.... And here I sit--while my ab chair exerciser thingy sits in the other end of the house.... That's where I should be right now!!!!

Guess I gotta "get with it".... First, a before picture:

I can't believe i uploaded this picture-for everyone to see! Well, actually, my hub's took this pic. on our honeymoon, in Cozumel... So, it's a few years old.... 2005, really--I like to think my belly still looks that good! {Not that that was "good"-but, it's better than how it looks now!} Oh, well, after 5 yrs of marriage and "good home cooking" it's bound to be a bit rounder!

{I'm holding a huge starfish that I'd found while snorkeling... God, I miss that! Yes, I am in Florida, so I probably could find a place, but near us, the water's always too murky to see anything... ok, I'm getting off track.... time to get back on....}
While out yesterday, in one of my fav. stores {Marshall's!}--I found this book, and thought, ""For $3.00, why not? If nothing else, it'll be fun reading..."

So, in bed last night, I started it... I really don't remember if it's any good or not--I fell asleep reading it, and I'm so glad I did-fall asleep, that is, cuz I was fighting the grumblings going on in that fat belly of mine.... I don't know what happened, ... maybe the cottage cheese I bought wasn't so good???

Anyhow, luckily, it was only me {not hubs, who's in a wheelchair} that had constant diarrhea for more than 2 hours last night..... Looking forward to trying to get into the book again tonite, while not sucking on Pepto-Bismol tablets!

Hey, they're the same color as the book! Even my tongue looked like that after 6 of those nasty things! Hmmm, if I had a night like last night, every night, for a month, I'd lose that 35 pounds for sure!

Oh well, more on my diet later!

Now, to go for a walk, to the other end of the house.... and blow the dust off my exercise thingy!
