Those Victoria’s Secret Girls Got Nothing On Me!

ByMary Ann

Yes! I am one pound lighter today! I’m smiling all the way to the fruit bowl! Soon, I will be just like those girls in the Victoria’s Secret catalogs that keep showing up in my mail.  The only difference will be that I’m 35 years older and my legs don’t grow out of my neck.  Those are the ONLY differences. Well, and the hair of course. I mean my hair isn’t quite as long and luxurious as those girls. And my boobs aren’t quite as perky and my bottom has a little bit of cottage cheese on it. But the skin tag on my under arm never actually shows and my bunions feel a lot better in the warmth, so I won’t be walking funny in Mexico.

There. That’s the ONLY difference between me and those Victoria’s Secret catalog girls.

I had coffee and my protein/superfood shake for breakfast. An orange for a snack and a crab salad for late afternoon whatever it was. I walked three miles with my lovely dogs, Maggie and Rita and did two hundred (I’M NOT LYING) crunchies. Underneath this big ol layer of flab is a six pack just waiting to get out!

I’m heading downstairs to do dishes, laundry and work out on the bowflex.

Thanks for all your encouragement! Who’s doing this stuff with me? Am I all alone in my quest to lose 12 pounds in 28 days? Doesn’t anyone want to try losing, say, 5 pounds in twenty days? Join me!

    Buddy Wilson’s eyes were stuck. He wanted to snap out of his trance, to stop staring. After all, there wasn’t a minute to waste. Move it or lose it, he told himself while his burning tired eyes followed the cow’s hind end over the hill. It was out of sight now and still his eyes…
