Visit your local buffet!

I found a motivator tool when I went to eat at the golden corral tonight. Never before have I ever lost my appetite in such a manner. Don't get me wrong, the food was good and I was plenty hungry. It was the other diners that lost it for me. There were at least 4 people there that were over 400 lbs each. Most of the other diners had some sort of weight issue. As a result the plate from my second run to the buffet was 3/4 fruit and I didn't even touch my fried chicken from my first plate. I pushed the chocolate cake around after a couple of bites and I had to push it away. It was maddening. That certainly was enough to motivate me to return to the gym and not give up on my venture. For anyone who has lost their motivation, visit your local buffet!

  1. I know EXACTLY what you mean! Me and my husband have had the same feelings at the same restaurant for the same reasons! Let it gross you out! You know what I tell myself when I consider hitting a nasty buffet? 'Skinny, beautiful people don't go to restaurants like that.' and usually, my desire to become a skinny snob overrides the desire to go there. LOL (And sometimes, I imagine that the restaurant really IS a Corral...and I imagine that all the people are big fat cows going to the slaughter...yuck!)LOL.

    Yeah, needless to say, eventually, we grossed ourselves out so much with the imagery, we can't bear to go anymore. We like the awesome grocery store salad bar.
