TASO FAN CLUB

Is this what being famous is like? Am I famous now? Is there going to be an E True Hollywood Story about me after I become a victim of my own success?

"Yeah so things were going really good for a while. I was working out hard and eating well every day. We were all having a hoot on MFP. Pants. Nut Butter. Reported. All that stuff. Those were the days. And then one day new this member pulled me aside for an autograph and offered up her exercise calories for me to eat. I didn't want to seem uncool or anything, so I went ahead and ate them. I used a piece of toast, 1.19 tbsp of peanut butter, and 32g of whey. I'll never forget that first time. Man, I cannot describe the rush I felt from eating someone else's exercise calories. Everyone thought it was a hilarious. Then someone else offered theirs just to see if I would eat them. I did of course. It was good, but not like that first time. And then more and more. I was always trying to get that same rush I felt the first time. Before you knew it, I was eating all my friend's exercise calories, and even some from strangers. Half my friends entered starvation mode and plateaued. I hardly even noticed. I was too busy being drunk on fame and calories and going to exclusive MFP parties. It got to the point where all I could think about was getting that next 'hit'. I lost most of my friends, my job... Then one desperate night, I ate my own son's exercise calories. It wasn't many. Just like 147 or so from '25 minutes of walking - casual pace - 2.5 mph'. I didn't think anyone would notice. Oh but my wife did. I was out on the street that night. Without my treadmill. Without my weights. Without by bike. Nothing. You know what that means... No exercise, no exercise calories. I hit rock bottom."

*it's time for a commercial break*

I am a Taso fan. We aren't actually MFP friends, but I always smile when I read his posts. Smart, funny and cool. The last post about his True Hollywood Story ... hilarious. I would still watch the show even though I know how it turns out.

p.s. Taso, have you ever tried Zumba? Any idea how many calories it burns?

Hmmm... haven't fangirl'd Taso enough this week.

Okay, I'm in, but I have one question.

Should I eat my exercise calories back???

NewVonnie

FANTASTIC!!!!!! :happy:

Wow man, what a fan club. I don;t even like men you know like "that" but I think I should after reading all those comments!

HollieDoodles

I want to join!..... I don't live to far away from Tas, so I could technically be an official stalker mascot for the fan club if you don't already have one :bigsmile:

I also want to place something on the table for discussion....
Shouldn't we all have some kind of snazzy tag that we can add to our signature, to announce our fanmanship to the world???

I'm thinking something with a white belt, a goat, and some bedazzling.

Should we have a vote???

Who would of thought that a fitness website would yield such an incredible find such as Taso42. MFP is serentaso42dipitous! He just never ceases to share his knowledge, motivation, and of course, his pants. And every single time I think he's topped the charts with cracking me up, he can always outdo himself and take it over the top of the top!

HollieDoodles

Yes, he is so wise and quite talented with his quick witted humor....

I bow before him, for I am not even worthy of being one of his MFP friends, yet he tolerates my existence.

thank you for bumping the fan club to honor our fallen Guru.

Taso, you will be sorely missed.

VonDarche, I worry about you 'cause I know you must be taking this hard. We all are. I know it hurts, but you keep on keepin' on, you HIT that ultimate goal, and rock them Daisy Dukes in honor of the man, the legend, known as Taso42. :flowerforyou:
