It's great to be married to a Metro...

Next week is my dear hubby's birthday and what did we do for an early celebration? We went to the spa for an afternoon of facials,massages,mani's and pedi's. Yes, if he goes, I get to go too. On a sad note, when I asked for a brow wax, she asked if I wanted a lip wax too. I didn't know I needed it. But sadly, under the intense glare of the esthetician's light, there was indeed a bit of dark peach fuzz. So at the tender age of 49 and almost 1/2....I had my 'stache ripped off.
But otherwise it was a great day!
Life is pretty sweet being married to a Metro.

I am almost 6 months from the big 5-0 and I have decided I need to stop looking like I've had eight kids. So I JOINED A GYM!!! I know, pick yourself up off the floor, but there's more, I HIRED A PERSONAL TRAINER!!! This means there is no excuses, I have hired my own personal nag. So far, aside from yesterday, I have gone every weekday for three weeks. Yesterday was a day off due to my, once again, breaking my !@#$ ankle. I'm in an airboot, and I can put weight on it, so I am good. The best part of this is, my trainer is the mother of seven and is working off a little chub herself. She is awesome. Anyway, I was thinking about diets (that starts next week) and I thought, "How the heck many diets have I been on in my life?" So here is a partial list...
The Scarsdale Diet

The Stillman Diet(Scarsdale and Stillman were neighbors in the land of Nocarbsforutopia)

then of course there is the Carb Addicts Diet

Sugar Busters

Weight Watchers x 5 or was it 6???

Diet Center

Adkins (gross)

South Beach (this was actually pretty good)

Nutrisystem (food is disgusting and rather 'clogging')

MediFast (lost a whole 8 pounds in two months, yippy)

The Lemonade Fast (burn baby burn)

The Egyptian diet (barf for weeks on end, then in nine months you turn into a Mummy)


Oh, and we can't forget my Dear Hubby's great purchase Seaweed Soap...wash the fat away...that was a real wise one. No late night TV for you honey.

So, what weird diets have y'all been on and did they work? LOL!!!
