Me (to client who was on vacation for the past week): Hi, how was your vacation? Did you exercise?
Client: No, didn't have enough time to add that in.
Me (thinking)...add that in? Exercise is not to be added in, it is to be a central part of your daily life...Oh, that's a shame. Did you eat well (meaning in a healthy fashion)?
Client: Only too well, I have put on at least 5 lbs. (seeing the dismay on my face)...oh don't worry, it's not your fault, you aren't to blame.
Me (thinking)..of course I am not to blame, but I feel so bad about this. Why isn't this person motivated enough to make healthier choices, I wonder(ed)....so what fun stuff did you do?
Client: OMG, did you see last night's "Orange Is The New Black?"
............
My Final Conclusion: If you don't have 'enough time to exercise', stop watching TV!
