- I take a hammer to every snack product in your pantry
- I stand behind you and scream “Fatass!” every time you pick up a piece of candy
- I squirt pepper spray in your face when every time you eat a chimichanga
- I spraypaint your car windows black so you can’t see any fast-food joints while you’re driving around town
- I leave a six-minute voicemail on your cell phone that’s just me repeating “Go to the gym!” over and over
- I give you a wedgie every time you start to eat cheese
- I hide your salt shaker
- I carry around my “lucky funnel” for when you forget to drink your water
- I padlock your fridge every night at 8 p.m.
- I host a “Oreo intervention” for you and invite all your friends and co-workers
- I sit in the back seat and sing “I’m Henry the Eighth, I am… Henry the Eighth, I am, I am…” whenever you eat in the car
- I slam my grocery cart into your grocery cart every time you try to buy cookies
- I call the pizza place where you just ordered delivery and ask them to add “toenail clippings” all over the top
- I weld the change slot shut on the vending machine in your office
- I spit in your can of Pepsi
- I replace your ranch dressing with Elmer’s Glue
- Whenever you go three days without blogging, I call you up and blow a whistle into the phone

You’ll Thank Me Later
I'm just not sure that I do enough to help you on this arduous weight-loss journey of yours. Oh sure... I blog quite a bit, and I try to pass on as much good (and bad) advice as I possibly can. But I think I can have more of an impact on belping you achieve your goals, and starting today, I'm going to do it! My plan?

Man, should I go through this and dissect it point by point?
ReplyDeleteum...
No. Not today. I'll just laugh and move on.
If only. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteI'm gonna hold you to this!
ReplyDeleteYes, this would be quite helpful indeed! Get to it!
ReplyDeleteOH GEEZ this is so funny I almost peed myself! LOL!
ReplyDeleteI wish I could go 3 days without blogging! I need to get away from this computer! :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the laugh
ReplyDeletehave you got my number? I could use the whistle blowing thing. I have a fetish for whistles. That's why I'm on the train all the time... but, uh, that's a different blog post...
ReplyDeleteOMG! I love it. Let me give you my number because some of those things would help. LOL! I do little things like that to myself. I decided to try running and when I wanted to stop (short of my goal), I thought to myself "Do you want to be fat or do you want to be hot?". BTW- I kept running after that. :)
ReplyDeleteThe last thing I need is someone else screaming "Fatass" at me. Oh wait...that would probably work.
ReplyDeletewhat time should I expect you :-)
ReplyDeleteGreat post as usual Jack!
I love it!!! need my phone number or address??? ***LOL***
ReplyDeleteI bet you could get people to pay you for this kind of harrassment/encouragement!
ReplyDeleteThat'd be awesome! But I'm not sure I'd enjoy the Elmer's glue thing. Even if it was out of love.
ReplyDeleteNew marketing idea...a Jack Sh*t Doll to carry around when on diets. Pull the string, and words of wisdom (and songs) flow.
ReplyDelete(am I hired yet? that is two good ideas in two days...LOL)
how many calorie in toenail clippings I wonder....
ReplyDeleteFinally! This is the help I've been waiting for.
ReplyDeleteDang! And I thought Jillian Michaels was scary. You have her beat.
ReplyDelete(that chimichanga comment better not have been directed ar me)
I just got an email that had the subject, "Put down that donut" - apparently our Employee Council is encouraging people to sign up for bootcamp. I hate donuts. I like your list better.
ReplyDeleteThanks for all the help, Jack!
ReplyDeleteAnd the laugh!
Discipline through terrorist tactics. Of course it would work!
ReplyDeleteI'm signing myself up for the oreo intervention. Let me know when you're available!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I loved this.
ReplyDeleteWould it be possible to hire you to stand behind me and scream “Fatass!” every time I pick up a piece of candy? If only..... Where were you while I was packing on these 200+ pounds?
Thanks for the laugh!!
where do you live again? SO glad it's not close to me! lol
ReplyDeleteI am confused? Why would you host an "Oreo Invitational"?
ReplyDeleteHow 'bout you replace my Baby Ruth bar with...oh, never mind!
ReplyDeleteHmmm...Oreos!
ReplyDeleteI could sure use someone spitting in my Mountain Dew....
ReplyDeleteOk, so is this where I leave my number? Trust me, I'll keep ya busy lol!
ReplyDeleteThat all will make a difference, you are a kind and helpful man!
ReplyDeleteSecretia
If you really wanted to help, you'd cook all my meals for me :)
ReplyDeleteI am pretty sure I can get my teens to fill in on the singing the song from the backseat one... LMAO!
ReplyDeleteCan I subscribe to this offer? How does this work? I have hammers, you wouldn't need to bring one!
ReplyDeleteHilarious!!!! Would hire you as my personal ass kicker in a heartbeat!
ReplyDeleteHow many times do I have to invite you to come visit me for a month? This is exactly what I need!
ReplyDeleteOh my could you host my oreo intervention? Oreos + wine = big no no
ReplyDeleteSounds good. Could you just kick me in the ass anytime I start feeling sorry for myself?
ReplyDelete(although, watch out....I'm working these guns)
YIKES - now you have me scared. Sitting here being quiet has worked for so long- although this might be just the kick in the butt I need.
ReplyDeleteLOL! I don't even know what to say, except... thank you? I think?
ReplyDelete~Kellie
I could really use those on some days. I'll remember to thank you...but later.
ReplyDeletewow. I am not sure I can ever eat a pizza again. I think you win!!
ReplyDeleteBA HA HA HA!
ReplyDeleteI haven't laughed this hard in a while.... I'm sure my co-workers think I'm slightly mental.
Thanks for the laugh (nevermind the many pictures that are now floating through my head). I'll keep the "fatass" one in mind next time I don't want to go for a run :)
previously plump... in progress

Brilliant! What's your daily rate?! ;o)
ReplyDeleteI'd like to sign up for the 8 p.m. fridge padlocking service, please. I'll pay extra if you will also padlock a cupboard containing my snacks.
ReplyDeleteThe worst part is that it's true: all those things would be better than going back.
ReplyDeleteYeesh.
Jack, there's a little award for you over at my blog. :)
ReplyDeleteHahahahahhahahaaa...funny! I particularly like the idea of calling after three non-blogging days and blowing your whistle!
ReplyDeleteYou are so incredibly helpful! I especially need that 6 minute voicemail today and perhaps a bunch of kicks in the ass. ;)
ReplyDeleteI probably need that funnel. :)
ReplyDeleteAll jokes aside.. I would seriously pay you for each of those services:)
ReplyDeleteLOL!
ReplyDeleteI am intrigued by your program and would like to subscribe to your newsletter.
ReplyDeleteI see a lot of wedgies in my future....
ReplyDeleteI am definately printing this out and assigning the tasks to my family and friends. This is so fridge magnet material!
ReplyDeleteThe toenail clipping one... so utterly disgusting but so freaking funny!!!! LOL
ReplyDeleteI am crying I am laughing so hard. I read it to those who are in my family and are not dieting, and they did not get it. They just don't understand our struggles!
ReplyDeleteI will be mailing you pretzels shortly...they are satan.
ReplyDeleteChris out.
you are very talented. that was very funny. thank you for a good chuckle!
ReplyDeleteOMG...funny funny man!!
ReplyDeleteA very in-your-face strategy! Not to mention too hilarious to think about. Love it!
ReplyDeleteI'll let you follow me anywhere, screaming all the way. Love your blog, love the way you go about it all. Thanks for the insight on things I hadn't even thought about.
ReplyDeleteTake care and God Bless!!
DAMN!! I am glad you don't have my cell # because you would be screaming at me allll the time. LOL I do need you on my facebook though LOL
