For overweight people, such as myself

Somehow, in all my sixteen years of being overweight, everyone failed to tell me that when I started shaping up, my body would take some really UGLY turns along the way. This is not pleasant to write about, but I felt like warning others in my situation.

If you plan (or just find it happening) to lose more than 10 pounds, give or take a few pounds maybe, your body may go through some quite awkward changes. My Mikey’s and mine are simultaneously dimpling up while the skin adjusts to the gradual loss of extra space. It WILL get better, if you take it nice and slow and don’t lose too much too fast.

As it happens, I am sitting here alone. My Mikey is still asleep, and I think he wants to STAY that way, because we’re out of smokes again. So I glanced down at myself, and that’s when it hit me how nobody had told me this could happen. So now anyone who reads this is aware of the possibility. Of course, it may not happen if you’re only a few pounds overweight, but I keep working my way up to being FIFTY pounds overweight, so….there you have it!

Good luck!

My Mikey, I love you forever times PI cubed plus one,

Your Jack
