I brought in brownies (chocolate chip cheesecake ones, yes I cheated) that I baked to work on Monday for a co-workers birthday.
My friend Dottie was looking a little green, and I asked her what was wrong. She said she ate two brownies, then drank a can of Slimfast and was feeling sick.
I thought it was funny (sorry, Dottie). I mean what the point of drinking Slimfast and eating two brownies. She claims she's fat. She isn't-she's one of those skinny but flabby people that has never exercised in their lives-she told me she never has, yet she probably wears a size eight. AARGGH! I told her exercise would help more than drinking Slimfast, but she said she won't exercise.
It occurs to me that even though we're overweight, we know more about healthy eating and exercise than many skinny people!
With all the technology in the world, cant someone come up with a REAL drink that would wash away the calories of whatever you're eating with it?? Talk about a perfect world...
By the way, Suzie...those brownies sound delicious! I'd love the recipe! ( just in case I ever decided to cheat, which I never do..no way, not me..not ever, I mean Ever!)
Miki, if you eat them standing up, they have no calories! (I love those dieting myths)
Thanks, SAPF--that's my bad boy MinPin, Mitch. He's a pretty handsome boy, but such a brat. Those light patches used to be rust-colored, but he's 11 now (actually, he's my youngest dog) and they're turning all white.
hee hee hee...I remember a large woman comedian years ago who used to talk about how SlimFast never worked for her because it was so gross that she had to mix it with heavy cream to make it palatable.
