Back to the grind

Well today was the second day back on the treadmill. Damn it sucks. Last year I was able to lose 25 lbs with a little exercise and diet. Then due to a great case of the lazys I gained it all back in the second half of the year. So here we are again feeling lazy and fat. Time to turn it around. It is so friggin hard to stay in shape with the entire world surrounding you in the laziest possible way to do everything. I'm pretty sure that most of the easy-nesses of the world were created for the fat to be able to get around, but instead they are just making the world fatter.

Escalator-so you don't have to walk
Elevator-so you don't have to walk
Moving walkway-so you don't have to walk
Motorized shopping carts-so you don't have to walk
Email-so you don't have to to walk (to the mailbox)
Valet parking-so you don't have to walk

You get my point. They even have gone so far as you don't have to turn your wrist to unlock the car. Or push any buttons to dial a phone. Is it really so hard? Man things must be tough if you need to have your toothbrush do all the work cause your to lazy to move your arm.

  1. my goal is to get a Hover-Round thing and just roll off my bed each day into my Hover-Round so i have to move as little as possible!
    Treadmills are no fun...get your ass out there and do fun stuff and it will be way easier. Ice-skating, bikeriding, skiing...hell even sex burns calories!

  2. The only thing worse than running is waking up early to go running. Whatever. It makes the dog happy and he doesn't eat our couch as much.
    I'm not sure if these are inventions that make it easier to get around, or inventions to make getting around quicker. It seems everything is geared at having everything done faster so people have free time. What are you supposed to do with all this extra time? The answer appears to be blogging, or reading and commenting on your friend's blog.
