So, I am in an improvised weight loss show called Thinning the Herd. It’s amazing. You should check it out. So, over the course of the next few months, fifteen of us are trying to lose weight and get in shape all the while making funny twice a week. There will be improv. There will be funny videos. There will be dancing. I love it already, and we had our opening night show last week.
Of course week one, I was the only one to gain weight.That's right ladies and gentlemen, I am currently in last place. For shame!
I told my friend Danielle, and her response was,“But you’re so competitive!”
Now that's competitive. |
I know, right? I am indeed very competitive. I have, on occasion, crushed children in games of boggle, my family plays cut-throat scrabble, and I can’t watch college football cause it makes me *crazy*. So, a weight loss competition show should be right up my alley.
So why the weight gain? I think it was two things really (or like fifteen, but let’s stick with two).
One, I was very stressed out. And two, chocolate is delicious. I think we have covered the chocolate is delicious part before in this here blog, but it really is worth revisiting. And here’s what I’ll say. Chocolate is delicious.
If these were my neighbors, they would be dead. |
But my competitive drive has kicked in, and I’m on track now. So, expect to see a bajillion postings about this journey into exercise and eating food made of vegetables.
And dear readers. You will be happy to know that for the month of October, I am committing to posting every day. What? Yes. Every day. And I don't mean "every day." I mean every day. So get ready. Cause I think it’s about time I actually got my shit together.
Kisses,
Jen
