Ain't That the Truth

FAT

There's nothing like a vacation in the mountains for relaxing and enjoying the scenery.

Hold, please, while I download the ol' vaycay photos....

Huh. 

There is a reason that my commitment to fitness is renewed at this time every year:  vacation photos.  In this year's crop of pictures, it looks like the current me ATE the me of last year.  And I was no dainty flower last year.

Sigh.

On the plus side, I have already been attending classes in the pool at the Y since the beginning of August.  (Water = Happy Place = Exercise that I will do voluntarily, even if I am the only one in the pool that doesn't have blue hair and a helmet perm.)  And I am back on the old diet wagon.  Again.

Sigh.

Goal for this time next year?  To be fit enough to hike Uncompahgre next summer.

See you at the top!

Shampoo Warning

I don't know why I didn't figure this out sooner!  The shampoo I use is making me fat!  When I wash my hair, the shampoo runs down my whole body, and (duh!) printed very clearly on the shampoo label is this warning:
 
"FOR EXTRA VOLUME AND BODY."
 
No wonder I have been gaining weight! 

Well!  I have gotten rid of that shampoo and I am going to start using Dawn dish soap instead.   Its label reads, 

"DISSOLVES FAT THAT IS OTHERWISE DIFFICULT TO REMOVE."
 
Problem solved!  If I don't answer the phone . . . I'll be in the shower.
