SlimFast recalls every shake on the market.

This article is located on msn.com. Funny stuff. The SlimFast shake recall due to a bacteria that may cause diarrhea. Well, if you are trying to lose weight and this bacteria isn’t dangerous, I say don’t return it drink it. Sorry, I know that probably isn’t really funny, but in my tiny little world it is.

See, I have been trying to lose weight all my life. I have tried almost anything you can think of. Grapefruit pills, the grapefruit diet, SlimFast, the cabbage soup diet…gosh, I have spent lots and lots of money on “get skinny quick” stuff. None of it worked so well as when I was going through my divorce. My nerves were so messed up, food went straight through me in about fifteen minutes.

I have never lost so much weight so quickly. (I know, I know, what a topic right?) I lost forty pounds in about a month. I was looking mighty fine, and then my system straightened back up. I have, since then (about 3 years ago), gained back about ten pounds, but nothing about my eating habits or physical activity changed.

I am not suggesting that you do something to induce diarrhea to help you lose weight. That is probably about as dangerous as any other food related disease, like anorexia or bulimia. I am really just making a small joke out of the problems that SlimFast is having, and I hope none of you take me seriously.

SlimFast is a good product if you have the willpower to drink only one shake for two meals a day. But if you have any on your shelf at home now, seriously, you probably ought to send it back to the company and get your money back. Being sick is no way to lose weight.
