Walk Around the Block
Take a wooden block- 3"x3" (u can get lots out of a simple long piece u just have to cut) (or you can use toy blocks) put in a plastic bag with a note that reads....................
take out block,
lay on floor,
walk around 3 times and go sit down,
now feel good about yourself,
you've walked around the block 3 times,.....
Fitness Block
When exercising is such a chore
Place your block on the floor
Walk around it as many times needed
And tell yourself " you've not cheated"

Exercise Program
Monday
beat around the bush
jump to conclusions
climb the walls
wade through the paperwork
Tuesday
drag my heels
push my luck
make mountains out of mole hills
hit the nail on the head
Wednesday
bend over backwards
jump on the band wagon
balance the books
run around in circles
Thursday
toot my own horn
climb the ladder of success
pull out all the stops
add fuel to the fire
Friday
open a can of worms
put my foot in my mouth
start the ball rolling
go over the edge
Saturday
pick up the pieces
whew!
what a workout!
Sunday
Rest!

Fish & chips
Plastic fish & poker chips
When you are on a diet
You can have your chips and fish
But don't reach for salt and vinegar
You won't need them on this dish
The best thing of all about them
Is they won't add calories to your day
And just by having them near you
Your craving may go away

CALORIES THAT DON'T COUNT
FOOD ON FOOT:
Food eaten while standing has no calories.
Gravity causes calories to bypass the stomach, flow to the leg and into the ground.
TV FOOD:
Food eaten in front of the TV has no calories. Radiation leakage negates the calories in the food and any recollections of having eaten it.
BALANCED FOOD:
Drink a diet soda with a candy bar; they cancel each other out.
FOOD FOR MEDICINAL PURPOSES:
Food used for medicinal purposes (hot chocolate, brandy, toast, Sara Lee cheesecake, etc.) never counts.
FOOD ON TOOTHPICKS:
Any food impaled on frilled toothpicks, like sausage, cocktail franks, cheese and olives, have no calories. The insertion allows calories to leak out.
CHARITABLE FOODS:
Girl Scout cookies, bake sale cakes, ice cream socials, and church strawberry festivals all have a religious dispensation from calories.
CUSTOM-MADE FOOD:
Anything anybody makes "just for you" must be eaten regardless of the calories. To do otherwise would be insensitive. Your kind intentions will not go unrewarded.
Chocolate mouthwash
I put about 4-5 red, green, silver kisses in small zip lock baggie and made the same business card size tag with this:
Exercise is a bad word
Every time I think of it
I wash my mouth out with chocolate!
(That's it. Sold for $1.50)
"diet fork"
My mother made a diet fork for me as a gift. She got a silver fork from a thrift shop, and curled all the tines of the fork with pliers until they looked like that curly ribbon. She adorned it with ribbons and beads, and it was rather pretty. (To be fancy, one could even engrave "diet fork" on the fancy part of it, and/or drill a hole for hanging!)
This goes with a fork, with the tines bent in all directions:
I've got a new diet
You can eat all you can
No counting! No weighing!
No special meal plan.
Trust me - this diet
Is easy to master -
Use only this fork!
You'll lose weight much faster!
---Diane
A DIETER'S PSALM
Strict is my diet. I must not want.
It maketh me to lie down at night hungry.
It leadeth me past the confectioners.
It trieth my willpower.
It leadeth me in the paths of alteration for my figure's sake.
Yea, though I walk through the aisles of the pastry department,
I will buy no sweet rolls for they are fattening.
The cakes and the pies, they tempt me.
Before me is a table set with green beans and lettuce.
I filleth my stomach with liquids; my day's quota runneth over.
Surely calorie and weight charts will follow me all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the fear of scales forever.
Diet skeleton
Put a little Halloween skeleton in a craft bag with this tag:
You say you're on a diet
And you must watch everything you eat
You need to lose a little weight
And you're determined you won't be beat
But be careful as you do it
Don't go too far or you will see
You won't just lose a few pounds
You'll end up looking like me

You're the reason I don't diet
I don't want to be this thin
Don't want my bones to rattle
So I'll just dig right in!

Magic pig spoon
Here's a magic pig spoon
to make your meal a treat
wave it over your plate
and calories it will delete.
Some foods may need a second wave
before you do tuck in
desserts and chocolate
will never make you thin.
So proudly hold the pig spoon
and eat as you declare
I've cancelled out the calories
so only taste is left in there.

This jar is my incentive
To take off all those pounds
And stop looking like Frosty
Big and fat and round
For every pound I lose
A dollar I put in
As the dollars add up
Upon my face I'll wear a grin
But if I should gain weight
A dollar per pound I take out
And that would surely make me
Frown and wear a pout
When my diet is over
The money I'll have for a treat
I'll buy me something special
As long as it isn't sweet

This is my incentive jar
to get me nice and slim
every time I lose a pound
some money will go in.
But if I gain weight
apart from feeling bad and fat
I'll have to take some money out
I don't like the sound of that!
So hopefully this diet jar
will help me make my goal
and for each milestone reached
I'll reward my self control.

Please pay close attention
I'm trying to do my best
I want to lose some weight this year
I promise, I don't jest
I thought of an incentive
And this jar will be the thing
For every time I lose a pound
You'll hear this jar go ping
I'll add a coin per pound I lose
I'd deduct one for each I gain
So watch this jar, how fast it fills up
For losing weight's my aim
