Reasons I am Not Losing Weight
![]() |
1. M&M’s have more calories than air. 2. I can’t eat “just one” bag. 3. Rocking on my chair is not considered exercise. 4. Chocolate Milkshakes are not considered meal replacements. 5. You have to walk on the treadmill for more than three minutes. 6. Potatoes exist. 7. Movies insist on force-feeding me giant sized snacks. 8. Walking to the fridge to get another Diet Coke isn’t exercise. 9. I’m not trying. 10. I don’t want my scale to panic if I weight less. 11, 12, 13--the Lovely DK over at A Fly Over Blog pointed out I stopped at 10! I didn't even realize! I cracked up when I saw she was right! Thx DK, too funny...Cheers for catching it!

This is my first post to Thursday Thirteen. Hope it works out! Sadly in my 39years of counting, I seemed to have stopped at 10, and didn't quite make it to 13! Guess my brain was programmed for 10 this time! :)

I hear you! I need to lose the baby weight but I'm far to addicted to junk food and I'm too tired to get out and walk.
Welcome to TT!

Hi Jersey Girl! It's nice to meet another TT newbie. I face many of the same dilemmas! Only my biggest weakness is potato chips. I wish they would stop making them because I don't have the discipline to stop buying them! Great list! Thanks for visiting. See you next week...

Hahaha
Yep those dang m-m's get me every time! I used to think if I walked really fast to get my next diet coke it'd count for something!
Thanks for checking out my TT!

We'll have to come up with some good "chair workouts". People use to ride excercise bikes while they watched TV...there's gotta be something we can do while blogging!!!
Thanks for your comment on my TT!!

I took a class in chair exercise once--it really was a good routine. Also, potatoes don't have many calories and are very nutritious. It's the butter, gravy, sour cream, cheese, etc. that cause the problem. Don't blame the wonderful potato!

OMG! I am moved by the compassion you have on your scale. I do the same. And yes, potatoes exist indeed (as my thighs will attest)
3:35 PM
I had the most delicious chocolate milkshake last night - yum.
I too am very concerned about frightening my scale.
Take care,
Frances

I hate when the movies do that ;-)

How true...
5:45 PM
I'm the same way on M & M's and only one bag. And too funny that you stopped at 10! Thanks for stopping by mine.
8:13 PM
I hear you!!!

What! 3 minutes on the treadmill isn't enough!! Geezzz...that was my first goal...right after I find my safety key thingy to turn the treadmill on...
Thanks for sharing!!
9:15 PM
Very cute! You mean that 3 minutes a month on the treadmill won't cut it??
9:40 PM
Are you even serious? OF COURSE walking to the fridge is exercise as is the rocking chair! Im far more comfortable blaming the ozone. Way Funny List! Happy TT and welcome!

I am so with you! Everything else gets in the way!

Nice to meet you Jersey Girl. I'm dieting now and can sooo identify with all of these. Especially when others in the house aren't dieting. Great list.
4:15 PM
What a true list...what is even worse is that walking to the fridge to get a non-diet coke isnt' exercise either. *sigh*
Happy TT
11:54 PM
Sometimes you just can't think of 13. It happens. Happy TT!
12:00 AM

fun list.
my tt is up now.
2:52 AM
LOL! I wish carryin babies, refereeing fights and being a mommie burned calories faster!

If the economy wasn't in such bad shape I'd lose weight. I might need this weight to survive if we have to cut down on eating or something. I think of it kinda like storing extra gas for the car.
