My Yucky Exercise Program

I've started a new exercise routine. I carry my 22 pound daughter up and down the stairs for diaper changes. Yesterday I carried her up and down the stairs 6 times to change her poopy diapers. The beauty of this program is that not only do I get to carry her up and down the stairs but then I get to run down the basement stairs to wash out all her dirty laundry. At this rate I should be fair svelte in no time as there does not appear to be any slow down in her production.

Sarina is slowly adjusting to being a car seat for any length of time. Mostly she is adjusting by whining "Mamamamama" for the entire trip. Until I give her a sucker. I cannot tell you the joy of riding in the car with her as she whines. Mostly I entertain myself by thinking of what I would like to eat now. But no I cannot snack. Damn that Carl. I had to drive all the way home and have half an apple and three crackers with low-fat cheese. Can anyone tell me why crackers that are three to a serving come in packages of five. Not even two servings to a package. What the hell is up with that?! And might I just say "Half an APPLE!" DAMN that Carl! I"m hungry.

It was arranged by the same guy who gives you 8 hot dogs and six buns. Have you tried the sweet potatoe or praying over Sarina with a red cloth and then pining it close to her at all times? One of them worked for cheryl,but not michael.

Might I suggest Weight Watchers and plastic pants for your problems? And I meant the latter for the poop issue (although filling, plastic is not a recommended part of a balanced diet...) if Sarina is leaking the pants may help. I'm sure you've already asked your doctor about this excessive poopage: what did they think?

And when you're ready to do more than curse Carl and store partial pieces of fruit, do check out WW. it does work and you don't end up feeling as deprived. On Core I can eat apples and all kinds of fruit to my heart's content. Just a thought... Didn't mean to cut your venting short or anything (she says, eating another forbidden cookie "kindly" given by a do-worker...)

Actually I credit Sarina's incredible output yesterday to her equally incredible intake of cheese, milk, chocolate and cake she had on Sunday. the chocolate was largely thanks to her big brother who insists on sharing all things with his sister, even against his mother's wishes. She does well when we stick to the starchy diet the dr. reccomended. Thus the basic flaw in my exercise plan.

As to WW, what fun is a diet if you can't curse someone? I think you are practicing the Damn co-worker diet today and who will it be tomorrow? Everyday I know who to curse!

Yes, the sweet potatoes work as long as you keep feeding them to her everyday! Unfortunately my girl has now gotten a taste of variety and she likes it!

I have not tried the red clothe for some odd reason.

At least you have solved the question of sweet potatoe vs red cloth. Luckaly your sistser loved sweet potatoes and was not old enough to demand varity.
More cake, she sure likes sweets.
