New Years Resolutions: For Me & Bunny

New Years Resolutions: Fat Bunny

Ah, 2008. Hello. How are you? Let’s have a good run, okay? Thnx.

I’ve decided to make 2008 a healthier year. Not just for myself, but for my horribly overweight (but still incredibly cute) bunny. Yesterday, while hopping around the apartment, Ashlee jumped into a soup pot, and got stuck in there. She wiggled around for a couple seconds, and then gave up, sitting inside the pot contently. I’m cutting back on feeding her handfuls of everything from Reading Terminal Market. Who knew you could get so fat from too many veggies and fruits? My poor bun.

Me? I’ve stopped eating fast food. It’s true. When I moved to Philadelphia, I had a pretty sweet washboard stomach going on. Now, I’ve got a totally unsweet paunch. Like my bunny, who is stuck inside of a soup pot because she’s too fat to get herself out, I’ve gained a bit of weight, and it’s time to get rid of it. I’ve been soda and fast food free for the past week. The only time fast food will be acceptable, will be during visits home, where White Castle & Halo III nights with my best friend are tradition.

Here’s to a slightly more healthy year. Wish me and Ashlee luck!

  1. Wow, good for you! Ya know, they say it’s easier when you have a partner - I don’t think they meant a bunny though. :)
    Hopefully I can pick up some of your motivation and get back to the gym soon myself!

  2. Although the bunny may be unhealthily overweight, she still looks really cute in the soup pot!

  3. adorable bunny - fat or otherwise, I’m totally with you on the weightloss issue, if you prepare your own food (no convenience items) actually cook, you’ll eat better, potentially loose weight, and definitely feel better - I’m roughly 60lbs lighter than I was in May, and honestly (I swear) all I did was stop eating snacks between meals, and I go for an occasional walk.)

    nice blog! good luck with that adorable bunny!

  4. That bunny is perfect just the way she is!

    I gave up artificial sweetener a handful of months ago and it was rough going. My headache lasted almost two straight weeks. As soon as I got past that headache phase though I felt much better.

    Good luck!

  5. Nicely done! I lost a bunch of weight when I stopped drinking beer. I started again, but lately I’ve been trying to drink wine instead. Teetotalling is not very fun.

    Question:
    Does White Castle have little fish burgers? I could totally be empowered by that.
