Health without All the Health Doodads

• Instead of an expensive heart rate monitor, simply make best friends with a nurse who'll check your numbers whenever you ask.

• Instead of buying a home treadmill, install a sidewalk that goes all around your neighborhood.

• Instead of buying expensive running shoes, simply try on some expensive running shoes and "accidentally" walk out wearing them (better be prepared to try those suckers out soon depending on alertness of security guard).

• Instead of purchasing an expensive juicer, try beating the hell out of whatever you want to juice with a heavy mallet.

• Instead of taking a Segway around the running track, try running on your own two legs.

• Instead of buying expensive bicycling suit that makes you look ridiculous, simply cover your body with fluorescent spray paint in ridiculous design.

• Instead of purchasing bottled water try filling a bottle with water, dumbass.

• Instead of joining a fitness center, make your entire world the center of fitness.

Instead of buying fresh, organic fruits and vegetables, try having a generous friend with a garden full of fresh, • organic fruits and vegetables

• Instead of buying expensive Greek yogurt, try Greeking up some regular yogurt.

• Instead of reading my blog on the Internet, sign up for Jumpin' Jack's Health Facts Fax.

Something to Bear in Mind...

Two men where hiking one day out in the forest.

Suddenly, they came across a bear.

One man took off his pack, pulled out a pair of running shoes, and started to put them on. The friend frantically cried out, “You can't outrun that bear.”

“I don't need to,” the other man calmly replied. I only need to outrun you.”

Upon hearing this plan, the man whipped a lead pipe out of his pack and cracked it against his buddy’s knees, then took off running.

Moral of the story: it’s okay to have a plan, but you don’t need to run your mouth about it before you enact it.



Secret weight loss moral of the story:  Don’t tell people that you’re on a diet; do it and let them take notice when the results kick in. Also, don’t mess with bears.
