Dog FOOD and Exercise

How would you feel if you carried around four 20-pound bags of dog food all day? DOG TIRED! 2 years ago, I used to weigh 80 pounds more and that’s how I felt. Run down. Exhausted.

Now I feel marvelous. Did I take a quick-fix pill or follow a fad diet? No, I just ate less and exercised more. That’s the only thing that really works.

Now that Beth is off to England, I’m getting back to business. I have 30 more pounds to go. It’s time to get busy.

I’m tweaking my exercise routine.

-- Monday and Wednesday, I’m on the treadmill.
-- Tuesday and Thursday, I take Pilate’s. It’s not as tough as last fall. I’m improving … slowly. When we’re on the mats, I can even touch my feet to the floor above my head. Not bad for 55.
-- Then (weather permitting), I’m walking 4 miles a day on Saturday and Sunday.
-- I get Fridays off. (I LOVE FRIDAYS!)

I want to push myself further on the treadmill.
First 5 minutes … 15% incline … 3.7 mph
Second 5 minutes … 15% incline … 3.8 mph
Third 5 minutes … 14% incline … 3.9 mph
Fourth 5 minutes … 14% incline … 4 mph
Fifth minutes … 13% incline … 4.1 mph
Last 5 minutes … 13% incline … 4.2 mph

Not bad for someone who used to be ready to die at 3 mph on the flat.

FIASCO: White House Gate Crashers



On the TODAY show, they claimed they were “devastated.” In USA Today, they said, "Our lives have been destroyed." Michaele and Tareq Salahi are idiots. They went somewhere they weren’t invited, and there’s some unpleasantness. PLEASE! If this is the worst thing that has ever happened to these drama queens, they’ve lead sheltered lives.


I don’t care if they crashed a party. I do care that security was so lax that someone could get in. Next time, they might have a gun.

I don’t want these idiots wasting my time with their attention-seeking. They told Matt Lauer that they were invited, but offered no proof. They said they’d bring it to him “soon.” Get real! These are social climbers just want to brad about the famous people they’ve met.
