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!!!

MAH!! It's so great to have you back:)
ummm...diets I've tried...
late night frozen snickers...not helpful.
I ate an entire LOAF of banana bread in about 18 hrs yesterday/today, and that diet has yet to work any wonders...
you've tried them ALL!! holy moses.
I know a bunch of people that like L.A. weight loss.
Way to be on the personal trainer!! I think that's the only way I'd get to the gym. You should do a before and after photo shoot:)
btw...I lost your email in my hard drive crash...I've had some good stuff to send your way. email me if you get a sec...

Hmm..I've done Weight Watchers and was intrigued with the Grapefruit 45 commercials when I was a kid.
I'm in awe that you have a personal trainer. Your such the celeb. I'd rather stick with the group classes so I can dry heave whenever I want without scrutiny from the instructor.
Lucky! I would love to have a personal trainer but I'm kinda scared of the the caffiene jocks at my gym.
The only "diet" that has ever worked for me was the "eat breakfast" diet. Strange how more food can make your body hold on to less food. I've got to figure out how to manipulate that further. lol
