my pet fat
I can't tell if this is a joke or not.
"mypetfatTM consists of a 1oz. replica of body fat and a set of thoughts that are called mind stretches. Together, they are the mypetfatTM program.
mypetfatTM is a way to think differently about weight loss that will create immediate, life changing results for your health.
More than a piece of fat, mypetfatTM will help you with the one and only thing that creates immediate, life changing results… your thinking."
I can't say I'm gonna pull out my credit card and order a 3 lbs. version of these quasi-gross props, but I can tell you that a few weeks ago my WW leader pulled out a 3 lbs. block of lard during the meeting to show us, and it did leave an, um, impact on me.

Heym that's nothing - my class was at the hospital to dissect corpses and look at muscles (wheee) and I saw actual fat. It was so horrible and slimey and yellow and squishy. Yet I went home and had pizza :(

Posted by: Jenniy at March 6, 2004 01:03 PMYou know, in checking out the website, the principles they're talking about are sound ones. It's sort of like aversion training, where you get so grossed out by the thought of this stuff in your body that you stop wanting to do things that will put more of it in you.
By the way, I just found your site today and wanted to compliment you on the design and content. :)
