A treatise on dieting with dignity

"Lately I've become aware of the need to get into shape. I thought I had achieved this already, since the shape I had previously chosen was that of a Bartlett pear, but I was wrong.

"Like many middle-aged guys, I've long held the bone-deep conviction that no matter how out of shape I get, a couple weeks of pushups will get me back to a 32-inch waist. My pleasant delusions were recently shattered. On our last visit to Blue Springs a 'friend' snapped some shots of the kids swimming alongside what appeared to be a bull manatee wearing purple shorts. It took several expert witnesses and conclusive analysis by an independent lab before I'd admit that it might be me, but I was finally convinced."

Great!!!!!!!!!!!

I was just looking at pictures of my daughter and me right after I had her, nine years ago. I was having trouble losing the the baby weight I had gained. I thought I was freakin' HUGE at the time.

Now, I look back at those days as my thin days.
