 I just read a pretty BS article on yahoo.com.

http://shine.yahoo.com/parenting/-weird-reasons-you-re-gaining-weight-200054172.html

For me, most of those reasons are false. I usually can't eat when I'm upset because my stomach gets all in knots. I do pay for my groceries with plastic (and pay it off every month) simply because all our purchases go on plastic so we can earn cash-back rewards. Free money, DUH. I don't idolize thin celebrities. I multi-task around the house and at work, and I don't eat while I do it. I telecommute and rarely need to travel.

The reason I've gained weight are simple.
1. I'm inherently lazy.
2. I like to cook.
3. I like food.
4. See #1.

Note to self:  Stop reading articles on yahoo.com.

Hehe! I eat more calories than I use and I am the perfect picture of inertia! What better excuses do we need? :)

Those are pretty much my excuses, too. *g*

Yahoo articles and comments end up making me either angry or frustrated about 90% of the time.

That article is complete BS. Obviously I need to cut down the calories and buying on plastic has nothing to do with anything!

I know, right? Yahoo sucks.
