grab a garbage can, cause these pictures might make you vomit.

remember the "most improved physique" contest i entered at work? it's been about 7 months, and i've worked out maybe 7 times. i've had a few setbacks with the flu, mono, a broken toe, and laziness (is that a setback?).

here's the thing - i have to show these pictures to my boss. everyone who reads this blog is either a relative or a friend, and you are all girls with whom i feel semi-comfortable showing my fatness, but... do i risk showing my boss? MY BOSS? oh, the dilemma.

mind you, this first picture is intentionally exaggerating my fat ugliness - hunched over body, stomach pushed out, all muscles relaxed, arms squished against sides, frowney face, slicked back hair, disheveled clothes. nice, huh?

(WARNING: DO NOT CLICK ON PICTURE. IT WILL ONLY GET BIGGER!)

this after picture is a bit more put together and some muscles are flexed, of course. again, i haven't worked out in 7 months, so it could be better. that goes without saying.


so... do i dare? can i live with myself? could you? will i still maintain some dignity after this? hmm... did i mention the prize is $300 and a round-trip ticket to anywhere in the states? the things i do for money. i thought doing payroll was bad.

i CANNOT stop laughing. "it will only get bigger." hahahahahhaha.

but, i think you should just go for it. who cares? $300 and a free flight? or we work a little photoshop magic.

Why does this post even have an overtone of query?! $300 and a flight anywhere continental US?!

By the way. The CAPTCHA for this post is "fluratos". I think that's Spanish for "do it".

WOW... When I sent you copies of these photos yesterday, I didn't actually imagine that you would POST them on here.... lol

You look totally hot in the second picture, absolutely nothing to be ashamed of. Doesn't a flight to Denver sound really fun? Ha. Since it's only an 8 hour drive it might be more fun to go to PA or NY, but you should still come visit! :)
