I have been informed that not showing my whole face in a picture (such as my Blogger and WAJ profile pic) is a classic "Fat Guy" technique and should be shunned. Yes, I thought is was mean, too.
But, pray tell, how many other "Fat Guy" pics have them in a faux polaroid frame? Do I get any brownie points for that, or do you not eat brownies? Tell me, self righteous skinny person! How many??!?!?
Truth is, I have lost about 15 pounds or so since my California trip. I just started eating healthier. And less. MUCH less. I'm not starving myself, though it sometimes is rough to exhibit self control. I guess exercising might help. Seems like a lot of work, though.
Before this exercise in exercise-free weight loss (hey, If Rush Limbaugh can do it...) I was on the Fatkins diet. It worked well - I ate, I gained weight.
I am to the point where it is getting harder and harder to stay consistent with my diet. I am my own worst enemy. Of course, there are SO many different types of desserts and fatty snack foods to choose from. As a matter of fact, I am writing a song about that very idea right now. The worst enemy thing, not the alluring desserts and such.
Getting back to the fat guy picture - I don't care for pictures of myself. Not that I am pridefully humble or humbly prideful or anything like that. I just don't like spending money on pictures of me. Pictures of my wife and kids I'm totally cool with. Not for me.
Looking back over this post I am disgusted with how many times I used the word "I". Sounds pretty self absorbed. Hopefully soon there will be less of me in which to be absorbed.
The plan is not the problem. It's the execution. That is where the battle will have to be won.
Really, that applies to every area of life. Most often we KNOW what we should do...we just don't do it. We KNOW what the problem is, sometimes we even KNOW what the solution is. Knowledge is not enough. Wisdom only gets you so far. It all comes down to EXECUTION. Plan your work then work your plan.
I guess the marketing gurus @ Nike had it right -
(oooh, is that a brownie?)

Just Do It!
Now back to my newly focused corner...
