the sin of gluttony

(click on link, above)

when one attempts to pull on one's (clean, from the dryer, like that makes a difference) pants and must lay down on one's bed in order to coax the zipper up, one might discover two things:

* the dryer has, once again and unabashedly shrunk said pants out of spite
* it might also be time to find a diet and stick to it

**sigh**

while breathing is not an option today while at work (i guess i could breathe tomorrow), i believe it is time to take captive any thought i had of eating outside of my known realm of food intake today, namely, carbohydrates. bad ones, not good ones.

my name is penni, and i am a carboholic. my sin is gluttony and justification (that would be the 8th deadly sin, inherently linked to the other seven if you really think on it) and i will really, really try, as of 8:20 a.m. est to go and be carb-gluttonous no more.

amen and amen.

oh, and to let you know i am finally serious, i thought i'd post my (gulp) *before* picture from august of 2000 and my *after* picture from april of 2003, when i had lost my 70+ pounds. i am not going to go so far as to admit how much i've gained back, but suffice it to say if i can't breathe normally in my jeans, it's a clear indication that i've got work to do...
