Take A Good Look At The Man In This Photo

The man in the picture accompanying this article is known to be on a diet and currently working with a personal trainer.  And yet, as can be plainly seen from the photo, he is holding a triple-thick chocolate shake which, many witnesses confirm, he consumed IN ITS ENTIRETY.

All of this occurred at a local restaurant which is known to serve foods which are high in both calories, carbohydrates and thick cheeses.

The identity of the man shall not be disclosed in this article because this is, obviously, a forum in which we strenuously refrain from “gossip” and all forms of “small talk”.

But look at the photo.  Look at it!  Do you see the look of joy on his face?  Do you see the smile?  Is it possible that he’s flaunting his general disregard for the rules and boundaries of the diet? It makes a person ponder what other rules of the program might be at risk. Is he counting his push-ups properly? You have to wonder.

Witnesses at the scene claim to have overheard this exchange between the man and his caring wife…

Wife:  Is THAT on your diet?

Man:  The diet doesn’t start until tomorrow.

It was the old “the-diet-starts-tomorrow” routine! Yep, we’ve all heard THAT ONE a million times, haven‘t we?

One of the basic lessons of this story is this: There are people with cameras, now, everywhere.  We can’t hide.  All of our actions are “out there!”  It’s something to keep in mind.
 
This man’s trainer is known to be a tough and demanding disciplinarian; a man who has quickly reduced powerful athletes to sad heaps, laying on the floor in tears. One can only hope that the trainer might be made aware of this incident, for the man’s own good…strictly for HIS OWN GOOD. 

Look again at the photo, take a good look….it is clearly a cry for help!
