I have been fairly disciplined throughout my life when it comes to my weight. I try to keep it within ten pounds of my ideal body weight for my height.

I always tell people that I work out almost daily when they comment on my lean frame.

What I don’t tell them about  is my secret diet.

I have a certain way of eating which tends to keep my weight in check with every meal.

When I scoop up food onto a fork or a spoon at least 30% of the food falls right into my lap. Yep! Right on that new expensive cocktail dress.

Then there is the next bite which for some strange reason my silverware decides to throw on the floor instead of into my open salivating mouth.

When I am having dinner with a friend or friends I usually am so excited to be with them that what food does make it anywhere near my mouth usually ends up smeared on my face or riding on my lip because I have missed my  mouth once again.

It has been a long standing joke in my life that the reason why I am slender is because I don’t eat my food, I wear it.  lol
