A little fitness and fat loss humor for you today. There are two funny videos I’d like to share with you below purely for laughs. Both are skits from old MAD TV shows. The first may hit a little close to home. Make sure you don’t become this lady. Warning: The second is a skit that makes fun of a fast food chain and uses the word a$$ so keep the kids out of the room if you’re concerned about that.
And…
Ever heard the phrase “it’s funny because it’s true?” It is, but don’t let it be true for you! Hope you enjoyed those. I’ll talk to you soon.
While the video’s are oh-so sadly true, and apparently funny, I’m reluctant to pass these videos around to a \wider\ audience.
Here’s the reason: I’m increasingly aware that so many who battle obesity are actually emotionally troubled for a variety of reasons. Because I’m not qualified to even explore let alone treat those emotional reasons for overeating/under-exercising, I’m also reluctant to treat their obesity challenges lightly. I just don’t know enough about those individuals to treat them too lightly.
Beyond that, I’m delighted by the scores of \Big Losers\, really big winners, I’ve met through our Challenge Obesity 5k here in MN. Wow! There are a lot of people making a big change in their lives because they’ve learned to \Eat Less & Move More\.
Thanks for the laughs and together we’ll see more folks make big changes for the better.
Gary,
That’s very true and I have noticed that for several years and have actually consulted a therapist who is a business partner about it. It certainly has to be a multi-pronged approach. However, everyone please understand, we are sensitive to mental/emotional troubles, this was just purely for humor and laughs.
