Gas Station Special

My friends, for this blog I would like to talk about a very dirty four letter word. The kind of word you probably wouldn't expect to hear coming from my mouth, or in this case typed by my fingers. The word is......diet!! Now normally I don't use this particular word unless I am enjoying a delicious Diet Coke, but this is not the case today. I figure there are probably many of you out there that made a New Year's resolution to get back in shape for 2009, and usually there is some sort of eating plan involved. However, since it is now February I figure most, if not all of you, have already fallen off the wagon. And I don't just mean you casually fell off the wagon, but more like you did a monster cannonball off the wagon and into a huge pile of Krispy Kremes! Hey, we've all been there at least once in our lives.

Diet's suck!! And they are impossible to stick too. Weight Watcher's has you do more counting than actually eating. Nutri-System will let you eat lots of things, as long as it's no bigger than a grain of rice. On Slim Fast you can drink nasty milk shake like drinks until you're so nauseous you don't want to eat anything else. South Beach and Atkins diets encourage you to eat an entire cow if you want, but God forbid you should touch a piece of fruit!! You get the picture, all these diets are ridiculous! So with that in mind I decided to start my own ridiculous diet. I mean, why should I be the only one not cashing in on America's obesity epidemic?? So today I introduce to you the Matt Moore Gas Station Special Diet!!

The key to the "Gas Station Special Diet" is to limit yourself to a few special items that can be found in nearly any gas station. That way you are never more than a few blocks away from your target foods. Plus, this diet can be customized to anyone's personal tastes! Feel free to pick your own three items, just make sure you stick to the plan religiously. My personal diet consists of Rockstar energy drinks (just think of all the calories I'm burning when I can't stop shaking), gas station popcorn (just to fill some space in the ol' tummy) and Payday candy bars (because we all know peanut's are good for you). The way I figure it, I will be a whole new man after just a few weeks on this diet. Go ahead and try your own combination of gas station delights! And be sure to share your life changing weight loss stories with all your overweight friends! You can all thank me later.
