Did anyone watch 30 Days, the tv series by Morgan Spurlock, the guy from SuperSize Me? If you aren't familiar with the show, it's about people trying something new, or living a different lifestyle, for 30 days. I'm going to try my own version, called 29 Days of Being a Health Nut.

When Chandra Levy was in the news, the media kept reporting that she was a fitness nut. I made Blue Grilled Cheese promise that if I ever were to go missing, she was to say that I am a health nut. I don't care if that means I won't be found, I just don't want the media to report that my hobby is eating. Anyway, I'm going to make good on that claim, for the next 29 days at least, so as to not make BGC a liar. Not that I plan to go missing, no, I'm going to the beach for two weeks. In 29 days.

My plan includes healthy eating, portion control, no fried foods, only one can of diet soda per day, no desserts (which is difficult because we have boxes of Valentine's candy stashed around the house to taunt me), healthy Sunday muffins, and an hour of exercise every day (yoga counts as exercise, but only for one day a week). Starting tomorrow. Today I'm polishing off all the candy I can find.

And, in case you were wondering, yes, I tried on bathing suits today. No, I didn't buy one. Too soon.
