Today's subject is PIGS, or as the above title, AKA, Men. I'm tired of them. I'm tired of the way they are and the way they think, and their immature, crippled, childlike way of thinking. I'm tired of how they always are waiting for the "something better," as if they have something better to offer. They don't. Today's men, especially around my age, are so stuck in not wanting to grow up. Time to take down your sports team paraphernalia, your random pieces of furniture you picked up on the side of the road, or your older sister gave you, and time to wash the cover you have over your futon...IT STINKS!
You may be thinking, what does this have to do with food. Well, I'll tell you. I've had an epiphany. I can't tell you how many times I meet the boy and get all giddy and butterflies in my tummy, and can barely eat, and am so motivated to eat healthy because I wanna look good, and I don't wanna be a pig on the date, etc., and then go to all my comfort foods when I realize this is going nowhere, he's an idiot, or worse, he stops calling, and I can't figure out why...no warning, no reason, just fell off the face of the Earth. Well, no more. I'm sure you can relate. And if you can't, I'm thrilled you've found the exception to the rule. Hold on to him.
Recently I've had two experiences that fit into the above descriptions, and although I was disappointed, I realized that turning to my comfort of eating will not make me feel better, but sticking to my plan will. And if they ever see me again, they will see how happy I am, and how good I look. No loss here, and I'm not gonna let it push me into a place where I feel worse about myself. You're already left questioning, "was it something I did?" I don't want to add to it, "why did I eat that?" I'm not giving someone that much power over me. And the best "revenge" is living a sweet life. And I've got that. So thanks for the memories...and the lessons. Moving on.
Even THEY get it...a little!

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LMAO!!!!!!!! Girlfriend I love this post! Ok...I did find the exception to the rule and I AM holding on to him...BUT, how many times have you and I cried and talked (for hours)about these "pigs"!!! I wish there was a pill we could take that would give us that "giddy" feeling all the time...I would never want to eat. You are right...sticking to your plan is the best! I can already see a couple of pigs from your past who will be kicking themselves the next time they see you! I hope it's at one of your shows just to put the icing on the cake!
This post needs to go in our "favorites" catagory. Do we have catagories?
ok...catagories = categories
We may not have categories here...but we could make a section in the book about this blog, and put in our favorite blogs!
Funny you were writing as we were emailing....whats sad I don't even get that "giddy" feeling anymore...cause I know hes probably a pig too....and what upsets me the most is I go on these dates actually force myself and they never amount too much and I've wasted.....make-up, hair product, expensive perfume.....ect..... christy
I could not agree with you more, Christy! You end up having your guard up all the time, because it's hard to not get jaded, and you don't feel giddy anymore. I force myself all the time to give someone a chance and just go, and then I'm like, "well, that was a waste of a cute outfit."
Do it for yourSELF - forget THEM -
the "giddy" feeling doesn't last forever - but how you feel about yourself does! Plus, the "pig" that you end up with, that won't be a pig because he will want to be with you for you - not how much you weigh.
BTW, throw out your scale, and keep doin' whachyour doin' - the numbers aren't what matter. Take it from me, it's working for me:-)
OMG - so aggravated - I just wrote a whole long comment and lost it...o.k., here it goes again:
do it for yourSELF not for THEM! The "giddy" feeling doesn't last forever, but the way you feel about yourself does!
The "pig" that you end up with, won't be a "pig" because he'll want to be with you because of how wonderful and beautiful YOU ARE. Not how much you weigh, the outfit you're wearing, or your hairstyle.
And get rid of your scale woman! but keep doin' whatchyour doin' - the numbers don't matter. How you feel does. It's working for me!
Great post and good luck:-)
Look at you lil Miss Blogger. So - yeah, I'd have to say that most men out there ruin it for everyone else. Sorry to hear that you've had some bad experiences in the past. But I think your goal of looking damn good and feeling your best is a great goal. Not only will you feel better about yourself, but it'll allow you to be even more picky.
Just know that not all of us are bad apples. =)
