Potato Chips & Ice Cream

Okay. I'm confessing. My potato chip and ice cream diet is NOT working. You know what kills me? I'm smart - my IQ tested out "close to genius." Why can't I eat right? Well, I know why really - I'm lazy. I heard a DJ on the radio say recently that, "American women will do ANYTHING to lose weight... except eat healthy and exercise." That's so me. I keep looking for that magic elixer, the pill - the "sprinkles" you put on food. There are too many "eat no carbs, eat no fat, eat 6 times a day" wonder diets. I want to have my cake - and eat it too. Chocolate preferably - with chocolate ice cream. Dark chocolate is supposed to be great for me! Well, one's good - two's better...

I belong to Weight Watchers (I'll go next week - I promise) - I have a gym membership (can't get out of that contract) - I even have 8 sessions left at a Pilates Studio. At this point - you all know it's me too, huh? I need motivation. That's it. How do you get it? What will motivate me?

Let's see - 1) Promise of Love: I lost my husband recently, Cancer. Do I need to be in shape for someone to love me again? Hmmm. Tough call - shouldn't they love me for me? 2) Health - I just had a physical - I'm healthy. No high cholesterol, no clogged arteries - nada 3) Money - who wants to pay me to lose weight? If someone steps forward - I'd consider it, but it's a slim chance 4) Fashion - Hmm... could be expensive. The yoga pants and Victoria Secret t-shirts already fit - I have plenty of colors. Not to mention - comfort... What will motivate me? Right now - nothing. Why are you motivated? What drives you? Watching The Biggest Loser? Let's here it - I need some motivation! The new year is coming.
