so I'm going through another editing session with the book I'm writing, I came across a really funny quote. I didn't know I had it in me. Here it is. This is from the tips section at the end.
Besides children, prisoners, and invalids, none of you guys were ever forced to eat a specific food. You might as well get over that now. Saying, "My wife cooked me chicken fried steak" or "there wasn't anything good at the party, so I just ate what was there." Is NOT an excuse. Be prepared for these situations, if you suspect a party will have bad food, eat before you go, or bring something healthy as a "gift". Basically, before you put the crap in your mouth, turn around, if you don't see a gun pointed at your head, then it's YOUR fault you are eating badly, no more excuses!

the working title is "Becoming an EX-unfit man" but that will change, it's still quite a ways from being put out there (lots of editing to do), and I seriously doubt anyone will pick it up for publishing. I'll probably publish it myself through one of those self publishing websites, which will mean all of you will have to buy it so some big company picks it up (Hint hint).0 -
Yep it's all about choices!
So I guess we will have to wait a bit longer for the book,:huh:0 -

unless any of you guys out there work for a publisher and want to hook me up, it's gonna be a while, gotta do it in my spare time. Actually the book's about finished, it's not really all that long, only about 21000 words or so. It's short, and to the point.0 -

I use to blame my weight on my ex-wife because all she wanted to do was eat out. After being divorced for 6 years time has run out on that excuse and its not her fault nor her responsibility.0
