Weight loss on the brain?? - 3 Fat Chicks on a Diet Weight Loss Community

Talk about this journey becoming all encompassing...does it sometimes feel like EVERYTHING is weight-related?

For example, I'm driving in my car and that John Mayer song comes on, "Your body is a Wonderland" and I'm thinking it's about a girl who finally made it to "Onederland"...

I see one of the lawyers has "3FC" bookmarked on his computer and I'm thinking he's one of us, when I should know it relates to the "3 felony conviction" rule...

I'm looking at a handwritten recipe that calls for WW pasta and I'm thinking "Weight Watchers makes pasta now??"...

Someone emails me a quiz and when it tells me I get 5 "points" for answering correctly I'm thinking that's a fair-sized dinner...

Am I losing my mind along with the weight??

Ummmm... yes.

I think it happens with everything. You're trying very hard to "master" something and it means you're thinking about it a lot.

The Cute Boyfriend and I take a photography class on Saturdays and he's trying very hard to master shutter speeds, F-Stops and Depth of Field. With my head in the fridge, I was complaining to him that the fridge had frozen everything, including some milk and spinach. He told me to, "turn the fridge down one stop."

I had to ask him to repeat it before he got what he had said.

Ha ha ha! I particularly like the John Mayer thing. Now when I hear that song, I'm going to start laughing, and I'm sure that wasn't the effect John Mayer had in mind.

I think it's funny...
