The Lengths I Won't Go To

I didn't do a New Phil post this week. There will be a new one on Saturday covering the past two weeks. Those who have been following my weight-loss and muscle-building adventures know that I'm not afraid to try new things in pursuit of my goals -- things like getting up at 5 AM so I can swing a sledgehammer for 90 minutes, for example.

However, the overall objective has been to make slow and permanent changes in what I'm composed of and how I behave. It's primarily for that reason that I won't be sampling the new weight-loss wonder drug, alli. However, even if I were trying to lose weight fast, I think I would shy away from that stuff.

A link to an explanation follows. A little heads up here -- if you're offended by frank (very frank) scatological references, don't go there. Otherwise, enjoy.

Okay, then. Why I won't be trying out the new miracle weight loss treatment.

UPDATE:

A somewhat more erudite Angry Aussie reader comments:

The warnings fail to do justice to the cacophonic anointing your world will undergo if you use this digestive Trojan horse. If you are brave enough to venture into public, understand that even if you consume nothing but water and parched fiber, your bowels will deliver something completely indescribable without so much as a hint that you no longer have even a shred of control of your digestive output aperture. No pucker is strong enough to withstand the unatural forces that will exit your body against even heroic efforts to the contrary.

On the other hand, if you are somehow able to isolate yourself for the necessary extended period of time from society and have the wardrobe, unhindered access to toilets, and ample laundry facilities for the duration, then this is a sure fire way to lose weight. Simply put, after only two or three days of your new way of life using this drug you will never again put a piece of food near your mouth without carefully considering how many fat based calories it contains. You have my word on that.

LOL!

I think we've found a new source for biodiesel!
