The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for January 11, 2023

The diet starting on Sunday evening and stop on Monday morning could works too.

That’s my kind of diet. I guess comic characters don’t have trouble with blood sugar and triglycerides.

And the root of diet is die.

see food diet

I stopped cooking and exercising around 10 years ago. My cholesterol went from 6.8 to 4.8 and artery blockage from 2 percent to approx 25 percent, weight stayed about the same 85kgs. My diet is eat what I want when I want if I want.

You only live once, so eat all you like until until you drop dead.

If you are not having trouble staying on it, then you are not on a diet.

My diet has 2 built in cheat days a week, I can eat what I want and not feel guilty about it. I do make up for it on my salad days though.

The old “See food” diet still works.

I watch what I eat. I see every bite as I consume it…ba da bump bump

The donut diet only works if you avoid eating the holes in the donuts. Some bakers are real mean and leave the holes in! And even fill it with fatty cream fillings!

I like it!

a resolution one can keep…

I eat what I feel like eating when I feel like eating it.

That may be a great menu in Heaven but here on earth it’s a menu only designed to get you to your death sooner. Brutus loves you more than you know and doesn’t want you dying one day sooner than you are supposed to. Enjoy t sweets but as part of a balanced diet….

Consistency is the key to success! :)

Good ole Gladys Thornapple, with thinking like that Weight Watchers will never go out of business, nor will Ponca Tent and Canvas.

Magic thinking seems to make many people happy.

The foods that stick to your hand,and to the plate, are often the easiest ones to stick to.

Ahhh, yes. The “see food” diet.

In reply she gets the Brutus “I’m confused look”!

Drinking man diet.

diet ≠ weight loss, it just implies a certain amount of food regimen

You gotta go with what works for you.

Brutus’ look in the last panel tells me that whatever is running through his mind is going to stay there. Wise choice

Brutus, if Gladys does stay on that diet, you are going to have a lot more wife to deal with in the near future.

BTW Gladys should avoid the doctor in Pearls Before Swine today.

I’d love to live in an alternative universe in which carbs and sugar are considered to be good for us.

my motto is, when in doubt, apply ice cream…

Gladys never said anything about losing weight…just that she found a new “diet.”

So Gladys what’s for dinner…

well, at least you enjoy the food you’re eating. :}
