Yesterday morning while on the treadmill at LA Fitness, I saw a news report where a teenaged girl named Neda was shot and killed at a rally regarding this whole Iran Presidential controversy. See the video at the bottom (it’s kinda graphic). My first thought was that we should go over there and tear that country to pieces.

After a few minutes of feeling pissed off, I started putting a few things together in my head – and my feelings changed. I started thinking that this was a great plan to get the American public ON the Iran War bandwagon. What a great, great idea.

Well, I just saw 191 on the scale this morning.. It’s very nice to walk behind women and children and not have them looking over their shoulder, watching my every move. It’s also nice to be out of size 44 pants and into 34′s… My goal is 30 but I’ll be satisfied with 32… It’s probably safe for me to start buying clothes about now – I only have 11 more pounds to lose..

In regards to weighing food – I know it works – but that didn’t work for me. I basically ate until I was satisfied (and sometimes even more) but I ate the right foods. I found things I really enjoyed eating. Mostly Caesar Salads with Grilled Chicken and Ranch Dressing – and NOT light dressing either.. Full fat.. I just got the dressing on the side and “dipped” instead of putting it on the salad. I was introduced to Sushi and Sashimi by Kona Grille (heh – see www.salcollaziano.com) – and THAT was a lifesaver. Sushi and Sashimi are a WHOLE LOT healthier than Cheeseburgers and Hot Dogs – and that helped big time. So finding foods I liked and NOT worrying about eating like a bird worked for me.

I’m at the gym day in and day out – often twice a day – and I see so many people making the same mistake: paying a personal trainer. Now I’m not saying there’s no logical scenario where a personal trainer makes sense – just more often than not it’s only a temporary fix – for a fee.

I see women doing all these odd ball exercises that they’ll never do again once they reach their goal. Basically things that are awkward and difficult to do. The problem with this is that unless you commit to doing these types of exercises for the rest of your life, you’re going to gain all the weight back once you stop.

When I hit the bathroom in a public place, there’s nothing I hate more than walking in and seeing a limited amount of urinals forcing me into the position of peeing right next to another man.

I always end up finding a stall and locking myself in there to do my fuckin’ business. It’s not that I’m socially inadequate or worried that somebody is going to laugh at my tiny pecker. I’m just uncomfortable being three inches away from another man with his penis hanging out.

So I went to see Drag Me To Hell last night with my wife and mother in law. It was a pretty cool movie – not the greatest – but the story was cool and the acting was good enough to keep me interested for an hour and a half – or however long the movie was. There were a couple of parts that were silly and a few that were surely meant to be funny (let’s hope). But all in all, it was a decent movie.

Unfortunately, the immature assholes in the theater were relentless in their efforts to prove that they were too tough to be scared by a movie. This same nonsense happened with the re-release of The Exorcist in 2000. I only lasted about 5 minutes before all the laughter in the audience really ruined the experience.
