Priest: Oh my child, please come in.

Me: Father, I have sinned, I need to make a confession.

Priest: Right this way, my child. *leads into confessional, me on one side, priest on the other* Ok my child, what seems to be troubling you?

Me: Father, my friends and I have this blog, you know what that is, right? Well, anyways, we talk about what we’ve been eating and what we’re doing to exercise. Its a diary of our weight loss goals, our thoughts through this journey of weight loss.

Priest: Well, what seems to be the problem?

Me: Well, you see, Father, I had to go shopping today. I had to get up early at the butt crack of dawn just to get to the stores so we could beat traffic, I skipped breakfast, I went until about 3:00 without eating anything, by then we were really hungry (my family was the ones I went with) so we stopped at a MacDonald’s (McDonald’s) and I had FRIES, a chicken sandwich WITH BACON and a coke! (shown below).

It was so good, I had to take a bite before I took the picture!

Priest: Oh my, that is a lot. So, you’re on a diet, yet, you ate all this FATTY food? WHY?

Me: Because thats what the family was buying and I didn’t want to sound rude and say I wanted something healthier, because usually, healthier means more expensive.

Silent Pause

Me: Thats not all father, after we got home this evening, we had to go to the store again and by the time we had finished shopping we were hungry and it was time to eat again, it was approximately 8 PM and it would have taken an hour to get home. So, we stopped by the (what I call) 3 store gas station and each of us got a personal pan pizza from Pizza Hut and we each got a drink. (shown below).

Me: I indulged myself, it was EXTREMELY delicious. Father, I have sinned. I have fallen off of the wagon. I haven’t been able to go walking the past few days, I’ve been busy, I’ve only been able to walk around the yard for exercise and today, LORD KNOWS I got my exercise today, so today, I DID get my exercise, I walked and walked and sweated and sweated, so, I don’t feel so bad about today, other than the food. Oh Father, what should I do?

Priest: *silent* … *begins to snore*

Me: *leaves*

(Me going to a priest…never really happened, just thought it would be fun)

*sigh* I don’t know what to do. This is EXTREMELY difficult. Its so hard whenever you go out with people and you have to stop and eat, they’re paying because you’re broke and you don’t want to ask for something expensive. I REALLY hope this week I can get back on track with the walking, but, I know for sure I will be extremely busy again, there is something coming up…I hope, that will seriously change my life. So, don’t think I’m quitting, just wanted to say that this is really hard.
