person A: I spent this entire summer thinking I was going to lose weight_comma_ that I was going to be good on my diet and workout. I did neither. I stayed inside_comma_ played video games_comma_ ate horribly_comma_ and got grumpy ate everybody who reminded me of my promise. Now winter is coming and it's going to be even harder to motivate myself.
person B: Oh no_comma_ I'm sorry that sounds awful disappointing. If it's any consolation I think it's easier to diet than to work out. THe old phrase "can't outrun the fork."
person A: I had never heard that phrase before_comma_ but I like it. Yeah_comma_ I'm throwing myself a big pity party right now. It's all my own fault though_comma_ no one else to blame. My wife tries to cook healthy meals_comma_ and encourages me. I just have to not let stress get me to overeat. We'll see how the winter goes.
person B: I'm sorry. What has really helped my friend has been not keeping any snacks in the house and cutting out most bread. HE really struggles with bread and sugar though.
