Michael, Michael, Michael. Now what did you do? Sixty to seventy investigators have raided the Neverland Ranch looking for something. I think they just wanted to go on all the rides. What better way to ride all the rides than claim you’re “investigating” them. My favorite part of this is that the news bastards have no idea what the hell is really going on so they have to put all this filler in their stories for the time being. Who the fuck doesn’t know that Michael Jackson had a hit album “Thriller”? If they don’t know that, then they probably don’t give two shits about him being investigated. Actually I knew that and I don’t give two shits that he is being investigated. Why is this getting all the attention anyway? Aren’t there two high profile murder trials going on right now? There’s those sniper assholes on the East Coast, then there’s that Peterson fucker on the West Coast. If the idiots in the media have to cover something, then why not this shit instead of Jackson. What did he do now, molest some young boys? There’s a fucking shock, but I already heard the story 10 years ago. Just make him a Catholic Priest and let’s move on.
Anyway… I guess I haven’t posted an Atkin’s update for a while. I am officially down 104 pounds and my waist is 15″ smaller than when I started exactly nine months ago today. People have asked me what I’m going to do this next week with Thanksgiving coming up and I tell them I’m going to eat some fucking turkey and stuffing. I’ll probably have some mashed potatoes and gravy too. Hell, I might even have a slice of pumpkin pie. Why? Because I can. Although I do believe that carbs are somewhat bad for you, I don’t think you have to live your entire life without them. Once in a while you can have a little extra. No I won’t eat until I puke, but I will enjoy a sampling of foods that I don’t normally eat. It’s not the potatoes and gravy that will make you fat. It’s the bag of Snickers, or bag of Peanut Butter cups that you eat while you watch a TV show, or the box of Chips Ahoy or the…fuck it, you get the picture. I do plan on sticking with Atkins and doing the second and third stages and slowly introduce different carbs into the mix, but I have a very strong willpower to succeed and keep going. The one thing that does stick in my mind is that I’ve been down this road before back in 93, but there is one thing different. I didn’t do that on my own, I had help and support. I tried to lose weight because I was paying money to do so, and I had to go get weighed and measured every week so there were consequences. This time it’s all on me. I make the decisions and yes, I am in control.
I’m going to stop talking now before I turn into one of those lame ass infomercials you see at 3am when your dog wakes you up and you can’t go back to sleep.
