I Am on Staycation, B*tches!

I'm off work for a week.

I'm on a staycation.

Besides a list of chores as long as your leg, I'm going to try to stay...

Well...

Stay focused.

Stay active.

Stay off Twitter.

Stay off Facebook.

Stay off OPB (other people's blogs).

Stay moving.

Stay smart.

Stay on my game.

Stay in my groove.

And stay off my blog (actually, staying off my blog is good advice for anybody).

Weight-Loss Sing-a-Long for the Wee Little Children

Healthy Birthday

Healthy birthday to you.
Your life is a zoo.
But you work out and eat right…
So it’s healthy birthday for you.

Zippin’ My Pants Shut

Zippin’ my pants shut, zip-a-dee-ay,
My, oh, my, what a wonderful weigh.
Plenty of good food and a workout today.
Zippin’ smaller pants shut, zip-a-dee-ay!

This Little Lite Beer of Mine

This little lite beer of mine, I drink it all the time
This little lite beer of mine, sometimes I add a lime.
This little lite beer of mine, tastes like turpentine
Turpentine, turpentine, turpentine.

Aiken Muscle

There was a man lived in the gym, in the gym, in the gym. 
There was a man lived in the gym, and his name was Aiken Muscle.



And he worked upon a bicep, a bicep, a bicep. 
He worked upon a bicep and 
his name was Aiken Muscle.



And his hair was kinda sweaty, sweaty, sweaty. 
His hair was 
kinda sweaty and his name was Aiken Muscle.

 

There was a man lived in the gym, in the gym, in the gym. 

There
was a man lived in the gym and his name was Aiken Muscle.

Let’s “Just Ask Jack”


Dear Jack,

Which will make me gain more weight, eating a pound of butter or a pound of feathers?


This is a conundrum! I’m having trouble testing this because my wife Anita once asked me if we could get a kitchen scale, and I replied “Why the hell would I want to know how much our kitchen weighs?!?” I’ll have to do more research and get back to you.

Dear J-Diddy,

I see a lot of talk about this Paleo diet, but no one talks about just how fat Fred Flintstone and Barney Rubble are. What gives?

One of the great things about living in our times is the fact that you get hop on Google and get answers to the most ridiculous questions imaginable. Through a simple search, I quickly discovered Fred Flintsone’s probable height/weight (5'7", 225 pounds), plus encountered an article on Scientific American about the real-world physics of our caveman hero stopping his foot-powered car (it’s all about coefficient of friction—a ratio of the force friction provides and the weight pressing down on a surface and… oh, just read all about it right here.
 
Dear Jack-in-the-Box,

You seem to have a lot of different dogs at your house. Why for?

The answer to that question is simple: we foster dogs for a local rescue group because I believe that each of us in this world has a sacred obligation to do whatever my wife tells me to do.



Got a question?

Too-Tight Jeans



I think I’m chubby
Without any sweatshirt on.
I think I’m flabby
As a Jabba-the-Hut-like spawn.
I know you get me
So just watch my weight come down, down.

Before you met me,
I was alright but thighs
Were kinda heavy.
You taught me to diet,
Now it’s never necessary
To weigh more than Frankenstein, Frankenstein.

Let’s go all the way to goal.
No regains, just loss.
Wear fat pants, until we diet.
You and I, will be fit forever

[Chorus:]

You make me feel
Like I’m slippin’ on
Too-tight jeans.
The way you spur me on
I can’t slip
Let’s run a mile and
Don’t ever look fat,

Don’t ever look fat.

My health starts
When I take care of me
Just work hard, time to break free.
This is real, 
Maybe my last chance
And don't ever look fat, 
Don't ever look fat.
