god damnit
The phrase "God Damnit", which when expressed in a grammatically correct fashion would read "God Damn It," is a vulgarity used to express frustration. It's literal definition is "May the Christian God Damn it to Hell". In slang, it is a phrase used in a generally non-religious context. For example, if one cannot get an electronic device to work properly, one might exclaim "God Damnit!", meaning that you are so upset with the device you wish that God would condemn it to eternal damnation.
It is rarely used literally, and is considered a lesser of vulgarities, though to the extremely religious it is considered highly offensive. In the Christian faith it is considered a violation of one of the ten commandments.
"I can't get this VCR to work! God Damnit!"
There is no god responsible for the backwards march of my weight. There is one person responsible. Me. Marc. My title of today's blog post, Marc Damnit is meant to show that I am upset with me. and me only. There is a solution to this. Stop being a jerk. I did not forget how to manage my weight. I simply stopped. I made hundreds of wrong decisions. I lost weight making hundreds of good decisions. So today, I declare that I am going to REVERSE the direction of my weight. (again)
.
This morning, the scale said: 263.3 lbs. I was sad when my weight crested over 240 lbs. I was sadder when it crested over 250 lbs. I was devastated when my weight crested over 260 lbs. The thing about losing weight is this: When I make my first initial success getting under 260 lbs. I will oddly be happy. No check that... not happy.... happier... no check that... less devastated... ah heck... Let me just be happy. First I have to get (back) there. Once I get back under 260 lbs, then I will worry how I should feel about it.
I will begin again today by carefully watching what I eat and logging everything just like I used to when I was so successful in the past.
