I'll Never Be Skinny

Being skinny is just not in the cards for me. This is because everything that tastes good also has a lot of fat in it. Go figure. I mean, I've been trying for years to lose weight by consuming things that Oprah says are good for me (Oprah knows everything. In fact, I found the perfect bra and the perfect pair of jeans just by watching her show). But, for the life of me, I can't give up all the things that I love.

Take today for instance. In an effort to be healthy, I made a visit to the Colonel. That's right. I went for some chicken. I had planned to order some baked chicken, but who can eat baked chicken when there's original recipe? The more I ate, the more I realized that I didn't even want the chicken. Seriously. Give me the deep fat fried skins...a ginormous pile of them. Who can eat cottage cheese and other healthy crap when there are other such delicious things in the world?

And, since I am always going to be just a little bit fat, it seems that I am also resigned to have ugly clothes. I know this because today I went to a plus size store (apparently size 14 is a plus) and EVERYTHING in there was ugly. We don't want clothes that you drape when you're fat. Do they not watch "What Not to Wear" on TLC??
