When I broke up with Justin last summer, I lost a good 15 lbs. It was kind of awesome. Well, the breakup and not having an appetite for a month wasn't awesome, but being all skinny and crap was wonderful. But lets be honest, the way I eat there was no way I was going to be able to keep that weight off. And well, I've pretty much gained it all back. No surprise.
But I kind of loved being 15 lbs lighter. So I decided that I was going to participate in Lent and give up fast food. Yes, I could say that I am showing God how much I love him, but really I am doing it so I can hopefully lose some weight. Selfishness, covered by the outward appearance of selflessness. It's brilliant.
Anyway, so I posted on Facebook my decision to give up fast food. And this was the response:
Clearly, people think I am insane for doing such an act or they think I can't do it.
Then, today my lovely friend Kristine sent me this:
What is this??? She tempts me with adorable pictures of her baby eating delicious fast food?!
It's like people WANT me to fail. And to that I say, NO WAY! I have God on my side.
He totally wants me to be skinny.

Nat- You looked like you were going to blow away in the wind last time I saw you. You seriously do not need to lose any weight! Nice try though.
You ARE tall and skinny. I know this from my 4' 10" vantage point.
I'm willing to help you out, if you insist, Just bring ME your Girl Scout cookies.

Oh Nat, you make me laugh! I say do it girl (although you don't need to lose any weight, you look great)! speen and I are giving up candy/junk food. We'll need all the luck we can get!
