Summertime Fun with Subway

For anyone who has ever eyeballed a beach chair and said a small prayer before sliding into it....I know how you feel. Reasons 111, 112, 113, and 114 for me to lose some weight are shown in the new summertime Subway commercial.

Potatoes are my personal devil

I love potatoes. In Idaho, they grown them as big as your head. That should be their slogan. Too bad they taste so good and are so hard to stop eating. I had my foot fixed up by the Dr. the other day and I didn't have the foresight to hit the grocery store ahead of time. Now, I can't step on my foot without literally seeing stars. So last night I was checking out how many calories I had left for my day and what I could pick up on the way home. And it astounded me how many calories the potatoes have. So I started searching out of curiosity...

Potato Chips = 1 oz. = 140 cal
Mashed = 1/2 cup = 111 cal
Burger king fries = small = 230
Burger king hash rounds = large = 390
McDonalds hashbrowns = 1 = 150
Arby's curly fries = large = 600

They say that enjoying in moderation is the key. For me, I think I'll just try to avoid this one as 1 is just too hard for me.

Goodwill donation station

I've got the first bag of oversized clothes ready to go to Good Will. I'm not keeping them. It's time to purge and I don't mean that in a upchucking kind of way. Nope, I won't need those clothes again. I wore my favorite purple shirt today for the last time. It's way way too freaking big. So I came home and shoved it in the bag. Does it make me a bad person to throw my dirty shirt in the goodwill bag?

I hope someone gets a good deal on those clothes and loves them. Including my soiled purple shirt.

CL angry ranting!!!!

Craigslist seems to attract those who like to under-punctuate by lacking to use commas and periods and is robust with those who like to speak in exclamations.

I was perusing the CL posts as usual, partially from boredom, partially from seeing what is out there, and partially casually looking to see if anyone interesting is out there. I went into the rants and raves section and just for kicks and giggles, searched for BBW. I was pretty shocked at what the Orlando people have to say about BBWs...

Ladies...quit using BBW in your ads....you are FAT Get over it. There is nothing beautiful about being fat

Why are all these fat so-call BBW ladies posting on craigslist is looking for attractive, educated and smart men. You are fat and if you are old and fat that two strike.
You should be looking for a blind man, take what you can find or loose some of that nasty fat. BBW is not beautiful it's nasty..
Ok this is me being real.

A: I am fat. I am beautiful. Would they prefer if I called myself a FBW instead? Actually I think that stands for something already, so suck it.

B. I have posted on CL before. I have posted looking specifically for someone attractive, educated, and smart. That would be because I am attractive, educated, and smart. What a concept.

I have this coworker that feels the need to criticize the population that isn't modelesque. He sports a beer belly (actually vegan junk food belly) the size of a full round basketball. This guy looks like he's pregnant. My point? I'm coming to it...be patient..The people that often times are the most critical are the ones who they themselves lack near-sighted vision. Take a look in the mirror pal and all you pals on CL. Why all the anger? Obviously you've never been addicted to anything before like smoking, sex, weed, alcohol, or food. Because you are perfect. I wish I had rose-tinted glasses too.
