I swallowed some pride

I Swallowed A Cow

BY

GEORGE WILDER JR.

FICTION

Karen Carson, as always been the love of my life, I have never met anyone quite like her before in my entire time on God’s earth. The both of us have been to together for five years, now. And each year has been happier then the one before. We both have thought about marriage many times. However for a couple of years, it never actually materialized. She is one of the kindest, sweetest, and most understanding individual I have ever met. She touches everyone who comes in contact with her. Karen is African-American and just twenty-six years old. My name is Kenny Davis, I’m also African- American, and 27 years old. We both reside in different sections of the beautiful and picturesque city of Chicago, and the State of Illinois. Chicago is a city with enormous family parks and a breathtaking colorful skyline. Buckingham Fountain is just awesome.

I first met Karen in college, when we were both very skinny little people attending DePaul University downtown campus in the middle of the Loop. She was majoring in Political Science and I was mainly interested in film production. It was inside the University’s library where I got that first glance at the soon to be girl of all my dreams. I looked at her and she looked at me. There was some immediate attraction and then came the mild affection. We both felt it. Somehow it was just right. I could tell that she was still just a tiny bit apprehensive of me. But I remember that I quickly dispelled any negative thoughts that she may have had and that was when I revved up an enough nerve to ask if I could carry her books after our final class. She hesitated but finally said, yes. I guest she realized that I wasn't a bad guy. We talked for awhile and soon we really got to know each a lot. And after about a week we began dating.

On our very first date, it was nothing elaborate. We didn't want it to be elaborate. We just was a simple first date. Therefore, we walked around the corner from the school to a newly erected Macdonald’s fast food restaurant with all its new amenities. It was one of so many in the City of Chicago. It was a beautiful place, all modern features. The place was a sight to see. At that time we loved it. We were young kids at heart. Some girls that I had dated in the past would have acted as if though it was an insult to go out to a fast food restaurant

on the first date or at anytime at all. But not my Karen, she was all smiles. Matter of fact, she was one who suggested where she wanted to go and eat. I just gleefully concurred.

We entered the place and stood in line to be served just like all the other

hungry patrons. Looking up at the menu, everything and anything appeared so

delicious and really scrumptious, my mouth watered and stomach growled with

great expectations. I could see that Karen was licking her upper lips dreaming for that moment she would be ripping into one and only, THE BIG MAC.

Finally, we were face to face with the young blue and white uniformed Asian young goddess who was going to

take our orders and soon give us food. I told Karen to order first and this time she did not hesitate. “I would like two Big Macs, two double cheeseburgers, two double quarter pounders, two large fries, two apples pies, one large salad, and a large milk shake. I'll get my own sodas. ” Suddenly, she was done. “Thanks for ordering for the both of us,” I said. She looked at me unexpectedly and mused with her big brown batty eyes. “Kenny, I didn’t order for you.”

she totally and emphatically insisted. I was visibly stunned but quickly left it alone. She had such a small frame for a body. It really didn’t look like she had room for all that food. My first thought was, did I being enough money to pay for all that? I sneaked and checked my pockets and found that I had more than enough for our meals. And that was a relief. Could she be taking advantage of me on the first date? I don’t know. Maybe she was really that hungry. So I left it alone again because I loved her.

Then it was my turn to order. I told the cashier to give me the same thing as

Karen. I paid the young lady then Karen and I moved over to side to wait for our

food. We stood there watching the cooks in the back who were putting it all together and onto separate food trays. Karen was literally constantly licking her lips at the sight of the hot dipping food being prepared. I thought She appeared so very sexy to me doing that. I almost fell to the floor. However, we wanted food.

Our food had finally arrived; the four trays were overflowing with everything

we ordered. Not a fry out of place. We rushed to our small table near a window with views of the outer avenue. Karen ripped into the food like an elephant in heat. In about ten minutes we both had eaten every on the trays, not even a tiny morsel could be found in and around the large food trays after we were done. We washed it all down with four two liter cokes. And a choruses of belched followed. This kind of gut eating, for us, went on for at least a couple of years. During

some of the time while we were stuffing our guts, we had gained a small audience. They expecting us every night to binge eat. We never let them down. Some thought that we were beginning to look and act just like pigs. We didn’t care what people thought, because Karen and I really felt better afterwards. We were stuffed and tight. However, we felt good being together.

Now, each and every day and night for five years on, we went out and ate like that. Some nights, we would add a large helping of macaroni and cheese, along with smothered barbecue rib tips, a few tubs of delicious hot links, a tub of fries smothered in ketchup, two litter soda for each of us and a ton spicy cold slaw. Every night had become heaven.

Over the months and a couple of more years we both picked up so much weight and we still munching away nonstop on our favorite foods, along with some candy. After each meal I could myself being much heavier than before

but I didn’t care. Karen was exploding too, she’s just smile and held my hand with

a candy bar between her teeth. We had long ago graduated from college and were now living together. We were now trying to find good jobs so that we could have extra money to eat more. We didn’t care how we looked to others, we just loved food. Soon I had to take on extra work because food everywhere was on the raise. Prices had increased along with every thing else, also We had gained so much weight that we looked like to tow humongous bowling balls walking the city streets.

Most of the people in the neighborhood who saw us knew that Karen and I

were very much in love. However, some failed to realize or didn’t care that we had

real feelings. Some of our former friends now looked at us with disdain. They had stop inviting us out for get-togethers. Some acted like they didn’t know us anymore. We were the butt of every fat joke in the world, and of some them, I have to admit were very funny, I must admit.

We truly had a love for eating food. It didn’t matter that we

were a lot slower physically than before and that we couldn’t walk or stand for too long before and becoming short of breath. Our bodies were now hanging slabs of flab and dragging fat. Karen had gotten so fat her breast disappeared. Her butt was so big and wide she had trouble getting it through a doorway. Neither one of us could fit in the car anymore. Therefore, whenever we wanted to go, we took the bus or train. When we did that, each of us needed at least three to four seats to be comfortable. The other commuters tried not staring but some of them did.

Each night we were still hammering away at anything we can put into our mouths and felt good about. Karen and I knew that no one would ever want us. However, we would always want each other. At home, we walked into our closets and saw lots of clothes we would never wear again. We saw brand new shoes just sitting on the floor that would have be thrown or given away. We both felt remorseful about that, but soon that feeling vanished in the haze. That is when we went the kitchen cabinet and got a few candy bars and sat down on the sofa and turned on the television. We were very happy, and we kissed each other.

After putting on so much weight, we both began to notice, again, how people that we grew up with, how they now were looking at us so differently. More of them pretended not know us. Turning up their noses every time we wobbled by.

Others talked unkindly behind our backs. Karen was hurt by some of the talk. One of her long time former best friends said she looked like a big fat giant balloon who swallowed more than three cows. I wanted to laugh, but I did not. However, I didn’t fare any better with some of own my co-workers. Most looked at me, as if I had some kind of disease. They would stare and turned their noses up at my protruding belly and love handles. And most didn’t want to be seen with me. I was soon fired, the reason was that given I was let go was because I looked and

looked awful, according to an in office memo. Karen was feeling a bit

uncomfortable at her job also, and she had quit before she was fired. So we decided to stay out of the way of most other people as much a possible to try and avoid the jeers and nasty looks that were sure to come.

Suddenly, one day later Karen had taken sick. Neither one of us knew the

problem or what kind of sickness she had. Weighing at least over 300 pounds, I just knew I had to get her to a doctor. At the doctor, I learned that she had a mild stroke. She was diagnosed with really high blood pleasure that led to her heart muscles becoming damaged. She had swelled to 350 pounds. And that was the culprit of her troubles, according to the doctors. Her cholesterol was sky high also. Karen was lucky to be alive. I glad to have her.

I was 325 pounds and I knew that if I didn’t make some lifestyle changes I

would eventually die. The doctors that were treating Karen, and they all looked over at me as if to say, "We will be cutting you open, next." I knew that they were right. In a few days Karen was at home resting. I was by her side the entire time. As I expected, her doctors, that they actually gave her an ultimatum and told her bluntly to loose weight or die. Karen and I were both scared out of our minds. Because I felt that we both were in the boat. Being sloppy fat had made us both so lazy and non-caring about our conditions, that breathing became a chore. However, not for any related health problems but because we were just lazy and wanted to spare our hard working lungs.

Karen and I began a massive campaign to lose weight together. We needed to

change our eating habits. At first we had reservations about giving up foods like:

Macdonald’s Big Macs, Burger King’s Double Whoppers with cheese, and Popeye’s fried chicken with golden brown fries cooked in grease, for such things as, nuts, seeds, plants, cabbage soup, and buckwheat. We love that kind of food. It all was so delicious. However, no more could we have snacks and gorge on things like cookies, donuts, pies, cakes, but instead it would be sunflower seeds, water, tomato juice, and soymilk. I didn’t think we could do it. After a few months and with help, WE DID IT.

What Does "Pay Yourself First" Mean?

What Does – “Pay Yourself First” – Mean?

By Jo Ann Brown – Author – “Getting Started On Your 401(k) Plan

A lot of people have the wrong interpretation of the simple phrase “Pay yourself first”. I’ve asked several people, and these are some of the things I’ve been told.

· After I pay my bills, and purchase the items I need, I then put something in the bank.

· I set aside a dollar a day. I deposit it at the end of the month.

· I have set up automatic monthly deductions from my bank account.

There is an inherent problem with using these methods to save. All too often, there’s never anything left over to save. The best plan is a sure plan.

When does Uncle Sam get paid? When does the State get paid? When does Medicare and Health Insurance get paid? These deductions are made before you receive your check. They don’t wait and neither should you.

Payroll deduction’s is the easiest way to “Pay Yourself First”. Use your company’s payroll deduction plan, if available, and arrange for a fixed amount to be taken out of your paycheck. Your employer will send these funds to an account of your choice before you receive your check.

The deposit choices for the automated payroll deductions are endless. Don’t limit your savings to only a low interest bearing savings account or money market account at your local bank. You can have the monies deposited in various accounts set up for an IRA or college education, assuming you have researched and identified mutual funds that can fulfill those needs.

This represents basic fundamental information you should know. Learn how to actively manage your accounts. All graduating seniors entering the work force need this book. Books can be purchased today at Amazon.com. Website: www.jab401k.com.

World AIDS Day

Hello Friends,

I just wanted to take a moment to remember and honor my friends and love ones who lost their lives to AIDS. December 1st is known all over the world as World AIDS Day. A day of awareness…..the one day that most people talk about the disease. It is also a day when many health agencies and organizations will be offering free testing and counseling. It is important for everyone to know their status, so if you’ve never been tested this is your opportunity. People this is serious. We are experiencing an epidemic but if we work together we can change things.

Today more than 33 million people have been diagnosed with the disease and the numbers are increasing everyday. Although the majority of those infected live in developing countries, Americans are not immune. HIV/AIDS doesn’t discriminate.

Talk to your friends, family members…especially your children about how HIV/AIDS are contracted. I have lost five friends to this disease, therefore I feel compelled to speak up….to give my friends a voice. Remember having HIV/AIDS doesn’t mean you have to stop living. You just have to do some things differently but you can still live a full life. Unfortunately, my friends found out a little too late. They were never tested.

I know my status. Do you know yours?
