In our family, everyone who has put on a few pounds gets a little teasing from Karla and its poor Laura’s turn in barrel. Most people would call Laura ‘slim’ at 5-9.5 and 132 pounds… but she ‘ballooned” up to 135 and complained. Karla drew the picture above to add to Laura’s distress! oh well! Laura’s working on the weight loss now! 😉
The truth is that our family is a bunch of ‘super tasters’ and ‘foodies.’ Given the fact that we all enjoy cooking, it means that we have to watch our weight from time to time and hop back on Jenny Craig. As diet food goes, Jenny Craig is the best… but it isn’t our food and it isn’t 1500 calories for a slice of cheesecake, either.
As for me, I am paying for my visit and trip to beautiful Florida with a full-on diet! Therapy for me is making food that I can freeze away for when I am slim… which will take a bit longer this time.
So, to all those who have found some unwanted and unloved pounds … get the weight off and you can occasionally enjoy what you once had daily… and be a lot happier.
