For those doing the Biggest Loser Challenge on SparkPeople, it is "Weigh-in Eve." I've been careful all week, and today is Day 119 of me being healthy and on track!

Now . . . let me preface this by saying that things are not always as they seem. Remember that as you read this . . . THINGS ARE NOT ALWAYS AS THEY SEEM.

I sit here on "Weigh-in Eve" in front of my computer with a 3/4 liter vodka bottle, drinking directly from the bottle . . . drinking . . . typing . . . surfing the net . . . drinking . . . typing . . . you get the idea. I make it a goal to chug the entire bottle within about 20 minutes after picking it up. I do this every so often . . . sometimes in front of the television. My family catches me and they do a double-take.

In reality it is a beautiful etched vodka bottle that was emptied a few months ago on a camping trip with friends. It has a glass cork; it fits perfectly into my refrigerator door; and the water is so amazingly nice and cold! I can chug 3/4 liter at a time, fill it back up and be ready for more in a couple of hours.

So the bottle is my friend, and It is what's inside that counts! But I do hope the neighbors don't catch a glimpse through my windows.

Cheers!
