There are so many reasons not to lose weight, I simply cannot count them all. But, for my own self, here are a few of the leading candidates:
- I’m lazy
- Delicious gyros
- My love of macaroni and cheese
- Did I already mention I’m lazy?
But there are also lots and lots of good reasons to lose weight, like looking better in my clothes, not getting winded climbing stairs and reduced risks of heart disease, cancer, fatty liver disease, etc. etc. etc.
So how am I going to balance the bad (mountains of tacos) with the good (mountain climbing)? Simple. By filming it.
The votes none of you cast are in and the decision has been made — my next video will address the medical benefits of exercise and eating right while chronicling my attempts to shed some pounds. And if the motivations to live longer and feel better weren’t enough, we’ll couple them with the possible shame if I fail to stick to my diet and exercise regimes.
In addition to the finished products, including a story in Findingsand the video, you all will be treated to some video blogs of me sweating on my Wii fit, shopping for healthy foods and grimacing at the numbers displayed on my scale.
Sure, being fat is a drag, but it’s much more horrifying to be fat on-camera.
