Diet Time

How do you know when it's time to go on a diet? Maybe it's when your pants d0n't fit. Maybe it's when your shirt buttons scream for mercy. Maybe your 2 year old and 4 year old help you out.

Allie's new source of entertainment when I carry her is to gently pinch my cheeks and say in a very soft voice..."Chubby cheeks. Chubby, Chubby, Chubby."

I also started the new Nu Skin weightloss program. It has meal replacement shakes. So as I was making an afternoon shake, Hannah asked me what I was doing. I responded, "Making a shake."

"Can I have one?" she asked.

"No, these shakes are so Daddy isn't fat anymore." I replied.

I then proceed to join my family at the table for lunch. Sipping my shake, Hannah says, "Dad, I can still see your fat."

I guess I need to drink more shakes.
