Refrigerator Pig

This morning, after realizing that my clothes are no longer fitting like they should, I broke down and went to the basement closet where I hide the bathroom scale (out of sight out of mind I always say) to see just how much damage those 32+ batches of chocolate chip cookies (another Costco bargin - 72 oz pkg of chocolate chips) I baked before, during and after Christmas had done. I have to tell you I was in shock -- so I promptly went back upstairs and posted my new found resolve to go on a diet on facebook (if you put it on facebook you have to do it - cuz people see you at church). Then I perused Nutri-System's, The Zone's and Medifast's websites trying to decide who has the cheapest and fastest way to crash off 35 ugly pounds while watching reruns of The Biggest Loser for inspiration. I have to say that I was feeling a little overwhelmed until I went back downstairs and found this great little diet aid my mother (who weights 85 pounds soaking wet) had tucked away in case of just such an emergency. In case you can't read the small print in the picture, it says,

"Chubby Little Porker is a Valuable Ally
for Today's Diet-Conscious Folks!
Activated by Light - Turn On
Only When Refrigerator Door is Open"

The pig OINKS at you when the refrigerator door is open!

Oh well, after all this running up and down stairs, I think I'll go make another batch of cookies! =)
