Thinking Out Loud
Moon Pie Mayhem

I want to lose weight by eating nothing but moon pies, which have significantly less gravity than earthier foods such as fruits and vegetables.
Jarod Kintz


You know you have to take the bull by the horns when your poncho is getting tight.

Or the elastic waist of lounge pants are groaning at the strain and threatening to explode.

So I did.

Today, I am weighing in about 35 pounds lighter than this summer.

I have rediscovered grains, consumed mountainous quantities of greens and flushed myself out with gallons of water. I feel a hundred percent better, clothes I couldn't wear have made a joyful resurgence and I can cross my legs again without injuring anything.

Nary a sliver of cake, nor a slice of pizza has passed my lips in nearly three months and I only dream about Krispy Kreme donuts on occasion now.

My only concern is about the Halloween "pig out and eat all candy in sight" nightmare.

It's available everywhere.

At the office I work in, at the businesses I work with, or on shelves stocked with half-off sales in copious amounts in every store I enter.

Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, my Kryptonite, will prove the to be the ultimate challenge and I may have to don my Superdieter Cape to fight fat and calorie crime for the next week or so.

I will do my superhero best so that I do not backslide into a sugar disaster and I have to say, I feel pretty confident. I bet my cape fits better too.

And yes, in case you wondered, bath towels do have a size.
