Does fairy dust help you lose weight?
Posted by: Stephanie De Pasquale on May 28, 2009 at 3:30PM CST

To promote its upcoming musical, "Peter Pan," Circa ‘21 Dinner Playhouse has invited members of the media to fly (aka get hoisted by wires above the Circa stage in downtown Rock Island).

The catch is that you have to be shorter than 5 feet 4 inches and weigh less than 125 pounds.

At 5 feet 2, I've got the first requirement down. But with my regular diet of Chinese and chocolate from the office candy bowl, I've got about three pounds to lose in order to meet the weight requirement.

But I am officially on the fly list, so I put down the Chinese, walked by the candy bowl and vowed to make myself go to the gym Friday morning.

I have until June 9, so this is totally possible if I lay off the sweets and actually work out instead of just thinking about it.

And considering that my wedding dress is coming in next month, I had better get my rear end in gear anyway so that I'm nice and trim in time for the fitting.

All I have to do is believe right? Believe and find some fairy dust.

I was a little jealous of you when you got the chocolate out of the candy bowl. :)

You can totally do it. And, how cool! (Eat some chocolate now and then or you'll go crazy.)

Yeah...I brought a bunch of veggies to work today and totally got Doritos from the vending machine because I was craving something salty. I'm still should be well under my calorie count for the day according to www.tweetwhatyoueat.com. I'll probably do a post on the gloriousness of @twye at some point soon.
