I found these funnies. Maybe they will help me loss some weight.
Trying to lose weight? Maybe this will help raise your spirits.
When you get on the bathroom scales, there are several things you can do to help show your 'true' (lower) weight.
1. Jump on the scales. This will make the needle swing wildly back and forth. Whatever lowest number it touches is your 'true' weight. You might have to have someone down on the floor watching carefully, so enlist a partner for weigh-in time.
2. Take a deep breath and hold it before you get on the scales. Better yet, hold several helium balloons in each hand. That should take off a pound or two.
3. If you have an older scale, try balancing on your tiptoes on the extreme outer margin of the scales, on the metal rim. If that doesn't work, stand on one foot.
4. Think light thoughts as you step on. Marshmallows, clouds, pillows, feathers and
hang gliders are all good ones.
5. While you can't hold onto the bathroom counter with one hand while you're on the scale (because that would technically be cheating), nobody ever said you can't suspend a fishing line from the ceiling, tie a loop in the end of it and hold it in your teeth, lifting yourself slightly up and away from the scale as you weigh. Hey, it might even work!
6. Before you get on the scale, go over your income tax form. The sweat you will generate ought to weigh half a pound, right? Towel off vigorously, and go weigh yourself. Was I right?
And hey, if none of these work, you can always try (accckkkkkkk!) dieting.
How is everyone doing? I haven't heard from our "Special K individuals lately.
I know holiday chocolates- I will be finished with them soon then back to the dieting.. LLOLOLOLLL.
