At least I'm not Kevin Smith....

Even though yesterday's Pants Incident was in no way, shape or form induced by my weight, I'm thinking of going on a diet.
Party because yesterday was Fat Tuesday and today is Shrove Wednesday, the beginning of Lent, when you're supposed to give up stuff. I figure that's as good a time as any to start a new health regime. Right? Right.
For me, dieting is not that hard. I have two sure fire methods I use that always help me lose weight.
The first, is calorie counting. All I have to do is set a caloric limit and then ruthlessly keep track of everything I eat. Which means walking around all day with a little pad, scribbling down numbers and adding them up, making sure I don't cross the line.
The second secret to my diet success, is the Sims. Yeah, you read that right. The video game put out by Electronic Arts is a big help in controlling weight. How? you ask. Because it gives you something else to focus on while you're sitting at home. You see, I eat when I'm bored and if I'm engaged in something like the Sims, I don't really notice my urge to eat.
Of course, before I actually start the diet, I have to get rid of the crap food that's in my refrigerator at this minute.
And by that, I mean the chocolate pudding I bought last night and started scarfing down after eating a microwave mac-n-cheese.
Yeah, I'm the poster boy for good eating.
