I was just browsing around the kitchen, looking for something yummy to eat. That’s bad news because I’m really not hungry, I just feel like snacking on something yummy! I have to be careful of that because that is how I suddenly find myself “too big for my britches!” I’m sure that is partly just looking for something to do that isn’t “work” and part of it might be the human instinct to eat extra food in the wintertime to insulate our bodies with that good ‘ol insulating layer of fat that is so hard to shed in the summertime!

I used to be a really slender person. The kids at summer camp used to call me “stick boy” because I was so slender! Now that I’m approaching “middle age” years (mind you I said “approaching” and not “in”) I find that my metabolism is slowing down and I’m putting on a little bit of weight that I didn’t used to have. I don’t look bad, mind you, in fact I look pretty darn good, but I have to be really careful to not let the snacking get to the point where I suddenly am overweight and have to try to lose it!
