Laughing my weight off...

There are many reasons why I am here...I ordinarily do not 'join' groups or teams but this virtual forum suits me just fine, as I can take all of you with me wherever I go for inspiration and accountability.
I've known I needed to become healthier for many reasons:
a: my rear end starts the auto hand-towels in the public rest rooms (frieken hate that)
b: my thighs clap for me as I walk up and down the stairs (weirdly motivational)
c: my belly has become a lap warmer (not attractive in the least)
d: my spandex roll down my waist like blinds every time I sit down (seriously??! anyone else has had this experience?)
e: I have had to stop wearing pantyhose in case of forest fires because of the friction (mildly theatrical, but they are excruciatingly uncomfortable.)
f: I can wave good-bye thrice, with my hand, arm flaps, and mid section (true story)
The list goes on and on and on....humor is what keeps me smiling through it all, I love that about me. However, a healthier
me is what I strive for.
Sooooo (my favorite one liner)...join me in this fight, the more the merrier! Add me at your convenience for ****s and giggles (hopefully the latter and not the other).

Hi: I love this. You are right weight loss does need to be done with a sense of humor and you are ahead of the game. I do laughter yoga one night a week and do you know that 20 minutes of hearty laughter is a cardio workout? Good luck!0

Great laugh early in the morning. I have experienced every single one of these.0

I hear you on the spandex roll down, which in my case always seems to be combined with a shirt creep up. Not attractive.
I just joined yesterday and I'd be happy to pal up with you. Humor is critical, especially the ability to laugh at oneself.0 -
Thanks for the laugh! I just burned a calorie! I also had relief of "emotional stress and a workout for the muscles of the diaphragm, abdomen, back, and shoulders"

Ugh I am the president of the shirt creep up club!!! LOL, thanks for making me laugh!0 -
Thanks for the laugh this morning....many are common experiences for me. I used to wear skirts and heels every day to work, but the whole thigh friction put a stop to that. Nor do I wear shorts as they ride up. I am a jeans and capri wearing woman now. I look in my closet at all my heels and miss them. One day I will wear them again!0
