I have been inspired...

I was dismayed at my creative juices running dry.  That is why I did not blog for a long time.  Luckily I fueled myself with some pickle juice and decided to give this another run.  I have after all been eating lots and lots of pickles over the past few months.

Just like many, many people I gained some weight over the holidays.  (Actually my weight gain started over the summer thanks to all the parties with neighborhood gang.)  So, for the first time in my life, I am going on a diet as part of my New Year's resolution.  I have been on many diets in my day, but felt it should never be my New Year's resolution because it is just too trite.  This year was different, because I could not stand looking at myself any longer.  So for the past two weeks I have been thinking about what plan is best for me, Atkins, South Beach, Weight Watchers.  By this point, I am sure some of you have guessed, I think I am going to try the Pickle Diet!

So I googled the pickle diet and what I found out was, you eat three meals a day and every time you want a snack you eat a pickle!  Well that is no good, that is what I do anyway.  So upon further research I found this:

That pickle diet basically says all you eat are pickles and drink water and you will lose weight.  Now that is my kind of diet.  The only problem is that did not seem very sustainable in the long term.   hmmmm.....Maybe I need to give this more thought.

2011 here I come a bloggin and eating pickles!
