Munchy Monday

Please join me every Monday for discussions on food...

“All you need is love. But a little chocolate now and then doesn't hurt.” Charles M. Schulz


This may be true...that a little chocolate now and then doesn't hurt...but it's no longer refreshing to hear "in moderation" because it's usually accompanied by an eighty calorie treat that doesn't satisfy at all but rather plants a nagging seed that grows and grows until one absolutely has to eat about six boxes filled with 80-calorie bags as well as a bag of chips and a few stray candies....sound realistic?  Yup.  At least I haven't yet resorted to hiding in closets with snacks...

Back to the point about moderation: simply stated in my world, self-control is not one of my finely-tuned gifts and so, alas, moderation is not often a word of use in my life or in my head....

So...my issue is that though a little chocolate now and then may not hurt, a lot now and often truly does...especially when washed down with something burgundy that was initially a grape.

So.  I am finally at an uncomfortable point of breathlessness and tight-shirted disgust when along comes a very exciting proposition....

Formally called "The Biggest Loser" but changed to "The Lifestyle Challenge" the challenge to lose, get healthy, and change your life once again hits MoFo.



And, I folks, am going to be this town's Biggest Loser...I mean, this town's Biggest Lifestyle Challenge Success...

"Always Under Construction" is certainly hitting the renovation stage....the deconstruct and rip things apart stage.  Lots of sweat.  Probably lots of tears.  And hopefully lots of shed pounds...

Cheer me on pretty, pretty please...this obese chocolate-loving maiden needs some healthy support!!!
