Willpower is defined as the ability to exert one’s will over one’s actions.
Read that again.
The ability to exert one’s will over one’s actions.
Hmmmm, to me, he’s a good friend whom I’ve lost touch with.
At one time, Will Power and I were joined at the hip. We were inseparable at parties, restaurants and even at the supermarket. He used to show up all the time. I could walk away from the most fattening, decadent dessert any time.
Yeah, I was fierce!
And, there was no stopping me getting to my step aerobics class at the local gym.
Now, between cookies, birthday cakes and treats at the ice cream store with my kids, he has all but disappeared.
Occassionally he rears his head at Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts, but more often than not he wanders off leaving me to bite in to my lemon pound cake or pumpkin muffin alone!
So, I’m looking for him to come back in to my life.
I have only two weeks to get bikini ready for my girlie weekend beach getaway.
Did I mention we were going to the beach? Did I also mention all my girlie friends are skinny bitches a size 0 or 2 or, shock, gasp, horror, maybe a size 4? That leaves me, a size 10 who is trying to get back down to an 8, as the seemingly morbidly obese one in the group. I thought I had all the time in the world to get my beach body ready, but time truly does fly doesn’t it?
Anyway, if you see him, tell him Karen is looking for him. Meanwhile, I’m going to dust off my elliptical machine, crank it up and work off some muffin!
I wonder if I can get some airbrushing done on my abs gut when I go for my spray tan.

I’m right there with you. The meds, thank the Lord, are helping, but I still have a LONG way to go.
If you find Mr Powers send him West to Colorado too, there’s a love..
I haven’t seen Will since I was 26.
If you do see him, tell that good-for-nothing I have a bone to pick with him (maybe a T-bone, medium rare, with fries on the side).
I certainly hope you find him.
I was starting to consider the fact he may have just been an imaginary friend I had pre-children.
i think your dr will and my dr will (the power twins) must be hanging out on a beach somewhere having a good ole time…i think its time that we cut their vacation short and get their hiney’s back here, dont’cha think??? i need to loose about 12 lbs. for a cruise in Oct. with my friends….so i can totally relate.
Mr. Will Power left me HIGH AND DRY at Dunkin’ today: They ran out of pumpkin muffins (my favorite too!) and so instead, I was forced to get a cinnamon donut.
Sorry, I think I saw him jogging down the street here in Santiago with some skinny b!@#h. I couldn’t catch him. I was up in my hotel room eating a Twix and drinking a coke. If truth be told, I didn’t even try to catch him. Like I said, Twix.
I hear you, sister! I am dying here! Please someone, take these doritos away from me. Mr. Power? Are you there?
My theory is that Will is a playboy. As soon as you turn thirty, he leaves you for a younger woman.
Happy POW!
He abandoned me a long time ago. That’s why I had lemon vanilla creme cookies for breakfast this morning. I so totally shouldn’t be admitting that since I’m on a diet- so don’t tell anyone.
I think he may just be a figment of my imagination its been so long see I saw old Will. I hope you find him.
