All My Excess Lives in Texas

The title of this post was a fat joke...get it? *comedy school alert: I'll explain it at the end of the post* So in my random googling, which most recently has been spurred by my newest attempt at weight loss (excess, get it? har har har), I was trying to discover ways to succeed in my quest of losing 52lbs in 52 weeks. <---dead serious. So far I'm about 15lbs into it. I was amazed because I found everything from exercise programs to gastric bypass. Seriously, someone needs to do a study on random googling and its effect on IQ, because I learn so much from the internet. I even learned what Lap Bands were:

The LAP-BAND System is the only adjustable and completely reversible weight-loss surgery available in the United States today. Amazingly enough it's available in Texas through Journey Lite Surgeons, the foremost Lap Band Surgeons in Los Angeles, Houston and Tampa.

I can't blame them, it's like putting a hot chocolate stand in Chicago in the winter...go where you're needed, right? Maybe they should check out the gold mine of fat people in PA, that's all I'm sayin'. So for me, I could never really consider that as an option to accomplish what I want to do. In my googling I actually found "The Abs Diet" via Men's Health and have been doing their exercise plan 4 times a week. It's arms, legs, abs, and cardio four times a week. I will keep track of my success. I can't wait to shed the pounds as we contemplate the future and kids and what not. houston weight loss surgery Comedy School: (where I explain the joke to people in need of a little 'splainin'): "All My Ex-es Live in Texas" is a famous country song. The post title was a pun, which, of course, is my favorite kind of joke. It was also a reference to being fat...which is the subject of this post. You and your friends can enjoy comedy school from the comfort of your home on a weekly basis as Alex explains many of his attempts at humor to the lay person.
