Holidays=Packing on the pounds...

If you're like me, the holiday season means eating uncontrollably until you literally feel like you can't move or you might explode. Don't lie - you know you do this too. I cannot be the only person in the world with the lack of will power when it comes to homemade lasangas, honey baked hams, scrumptious Italian cookies (made by the one and only Deanna) etc, etc. It feels great going down....and not so hot when you go to put on a pair of pants and have to do the shimmy to get the zipper up!

Ahh, but here is where I differ from most responsible 20-something women....I can't bring myself to stick to a diet or exercise regimen. Sure, I walk to work every few days or ride my bicycle when it isn't below zero out, but I don't belong to a gym and you won't find me running laps on the Greenway. I'm lazy and I need to come to terms with it. When I was younger it didn't matter that much because I've always been a tiny person and could define "exercise" as being the walk to supermarket to buy more potato chips. Now I'm 25 and for some reason, I just can't shake that extra booty weight as easily as I once could.

I must figure a way to start living more healthy. But until I do...I will drink my coffee out of this mug because, looking at it, I just can't help laughing hysterically. And laughing has to help lose some calories, no?


You can find this mug on sale at the very cool vintage etsy shop Dandelion Girl along with other fab finds.

P.S...Please do not get me wrong, clearly I do not condone anyone starving themselves.
