Where did those extra five pounds come from?

Surely it wasn't from the scottish black pudding we had for New Years...
... or the delicious fish at Oceans 60 in Jacksonville...
... it couldn't have been the shrimp wraps for breakfast...
... or the seafood omelets...
... and it's impossibly all the christmas food, turkey, ham, mash etc that has stuck to my arse...
... nor could it be the omelet-shrimp-avocado-wraps...
... and it has absolutely nothing to do with lobster benedicts...
... or a ton of sweets and cookies...
... No, it must have been that little taste of reindeer feed I had! 

So, if I just stay away from that in the future I should loose a bunch of weight. Right? Right.

Getting hungry now. Gotto go. Staying away from hay.

  19. Funny, I thought the same thing when I weighed myself after the holidays! Where on EARTH did all that extra weight come from??? Couldn't be from the ice cream that I ate every day, or the two pounds of christmas cookies I ate or all the yummy, yummy Austin food that I ate while at home over the break... just not possible!

  21. I'm sure I learnt in physics once that the weight in the world is constant - and that means that if one person wants to lose weight, someone else has to gain. Anyone has been successful in losing weight recently should be supremely grateful to us for taking on their excess pounds.
