Complaint!

I wish to register a complaint!

It's been about six months now since followed your advice and began work on my diet. At the time, my weight was hovering around 200 pounds, and yesterday I weighed in at 176.

Yes, I suppose dropping under 180 for the first time in 15 years is okay, and all. And sure, it feels pretty good to have more energy, and not to have my gut hanging over my belt. But has anyone here at SOTT ever considered the harm this kind of "improvement" can do to people?

I bet no one here ever thought about how this kind of thing could compromise the relationship I've been building with my son. Because of your suggestions I have been forced into a position of "do as I say, not as I do". Can you imagine how hypocritical I look, explaining to my son how unacceptable it is for him to be wearing his pants strapped halfway down his butt, showing his underwear, looking like some kind of street gang punk, while all the while I'm standing there with my pants hanging halfway down my butt, showing my underwear, looking like some kind of street gang punk? I'm losing his respect, and my authority!

Even with my belt in the smallest hole there's still enough room to fit a second person in my pants. And with my financial situation the way it is, I can hardly afford to pay the rent AND replace my pants! I'll be forced to take out a personal loan from the bank just so I don't look like I'm drowning in fabric!

To top it off, finding the time to do the EE program, shop and prepare good food and keep up with my reading, is getting pretty darn difficult now that my wife is suddenly after me for sex all the time! This slimming down is going to KILL me.

You people should be ashamed of yourselves, sharing all these "wonderful" ideas about how to become healthier and be better human beings. It's deplorable, and it's ruining my life!!

THANKS FOR NOTHING, SOTT!!
 
Hi mocachapeau,

Are you serious or should I move this to the Tickle Me board? :huh:

I was just getting ready for bed and after reading your post I had to laugh, as this was good. Keep up the good work ! ;D
 
This actually had me going for a minute -- until the part toward the end about your wife :D

Glad you are finding the health and diet suggestions so problematic :)

I was going to post it to the Tickle Me Board, but then I didn't think it would have been a real April Fool's joke. I was a little worried that someone might take it seriously, but I took a chance.

I'm truly sorry if this is considered nothing but noise, and if it should be moved to the other board, I understand. :-[

I just wanted to mark the 1st of April by finding a funny way of expressing my appreciation for all that you do here, and at least part of what you've done for me.

Thank you, and APRIL FOOL'S!! ;D

Thanks for the April fools joke and congrats on your success! ;)

Okay understood. It's just that I was thinking that perhaps our non English speaking members may not be too sure if it was a joke or not. :)

Mind you, you did give us all a clue, using the opening line of Monty Python's Parrot Sketch?

You made me laugh mocachapeau - I too have lost about 28lbs and you hit some wry observations!

thanks for the giggle!

Hahaha! I know exactly what you mean... half of my energy walking around these days goes to pulling my pants up! It's just... impractical...

:P :P :lol:
