My Number One Weight Loss Tip

It has taken me 43 years to figure this one out, but Imma share with you my number one weight loss tip, and it's ironclad. Here it is:

Do a colonoscopy prep on Thursday night, wake up 4 pounds lighter the next morning, then immediately AFTER the colonoscopy, head into your first bout of strep throat in 20-odd years. Dude, that is IT. No more working out, sweating my ass off in turbokick classes, no more lifting, no more wondering if I should have a glass of wine or a bottle of beer with dinner.

With my patented "colon-strep" diet - or WAY OF LIFE - as I like to think of it (because really, who likes to be on a DIET), you are guaranteed to lose up to 10 pounds, 25% of your muscle mass, and every electrolyte in your body, IN ONLY TWO DAYS.

Here are some other calorie busters, gang:

• I'm pretty sure that trying to swallow a mouthful of oatmeal (which feels more like swallowing a cheese grater) burns about 47.3 calories per bite, so BONUS!
• Sprinting to the bathroom burns 73 calories per sprint. If you sprint 987 times, like I did, well - that's a LOTTA calories burned, kids!
• Cleaning all the toilets that you used the day following your colonoscopy burns 170 calories per hour, and that's LIGHT EFFORT. If you multiply 170 by 3 (for HEAVY DUTY - OR DOODY - EFFORT), that's 510 calories PER TOILET. If you hit up three different toilets in the course of your prep, well, you do the math, cuz I suck at it. I THINK YOU CATCH MY DRIFT.
• Post-procedure, but mid-strep, dragging your raggedy ass from a prone "corpse pose" into a half-slouchy sitting up position will burn approximately 37 calories.

And there you have it. My fool-proof plan to lose inches, muscle tone, and dignity, in just a few days.
