Your Fired

Friday I came home from work and my yard was not done, see I am the last yard of the week. So I am thinking after years of having my yard done, because I was too FAT to do it myself. I figured if I can walk 2.5 miles, I can mow my own yard. So I fired the yard crew and got the mower out and mowed. This may seem like a simple task to many but since I was so FAT I could not do it without it taking me hours since I would have to mow a little and rest a lot, mow a little and rest a lot. When I mowed I edged, fertilized, and killed the bugs while I was out there. I did everything in 2.5 hours on a Friday night after working all day and walking 2.5 miles at lunch. Boy I love the LB. More money saved since I was spending $200 a month for yard care, add this to the $400 I am saving in food and I will take a nice vacation this year.

That's a great story and goes into the file for those of us who had to self pay...we have to think of things we spent money on if we couldnt do them ourselves..thanks, Cali

Hey Greg, Happy late birthday!!! I was worried about you because I have not seen you post in awhile. I guess I was worried for nothing, it sounds like you are doing fantastic!! 60 lbs that is awesome, doing your own yard work and walking man you are doing great. Have a great weekend! Bernadette

You know it is all how you look at it. I was not a self pay, but would have to change my life. I know it is a lot of money but even in the short term it is well worth it. Not to mention your health, you save every month. I did not realize being fat was costing me money, who knew.
