My card was inspired by all those weight loss ads on TV. They're relentless! As someone who's struggled with weight it's so annoying to be constantly reminded of your weight! I am so sick of Marie Osmond telling me she's lost 50 pounds and making it sound like she did it in a week! Get real Marie!

I'm with you Polly. When these stars say they lost all this weight, with their money they probably all were helped with surgeries! Your card is really hilarious and I certainly identify with her. It seems like it takes forever to lose weight, but eat one bad meal (it looks so good; love the fries) and you gain another 5 pounds.

This is one fun challenge today due partly to cards like yours. I wonder how many dollars are spent on weight loss products. We all can relate to your gal. Fav'd

Haha..simply hilarious! I had to chuckle at the fattening hamburger plate in the corner!! I would agree about all the weight loss ads and especially the ones with Marie in them! As a past weight watcher participant, it was tough and not at all easy but I guess they don't want to share that part...lol!!

I have had a few days when I asked myself, "Why did I eat that?" But then I remember the answer is always, because it tastes good! I do need to lose a few lbs. or just stay off the scale or I will be just the stamped lady! What a good laugh and a great card!

Oh my gosh, between your card and your description, I can't stop laughing! I no longer worry about weight loss since I'm skipping prom this year! Love that image and I have her. Maybe time to bring it out again! LOVE this Polly, particularly with that plate of REALLY good food you used on this!
