A few years ago I worked with Diet and fitness guru Rosemary Conley on producing some motivational cartoons for her UK magazine. Here’s another one of the cartoons I drew up for her…

While working on the series of cartoons I jotted down a number of slimming quotes…

Your stomach shouldn’t be a waist basket.  ~Author Unknown

A diet is the penalty we pay for exceeding the feed limit.  ~Author Unknown

More die in the United States of too much food than of too little.  ~John Kenneth Galbraith, The Affluent Society

In the Middle Ages, they had guillotines, stretch racks, whips and chains.  Nowadays, we have a much more effective torture device called the bathroom scale.  ~Stephen Phillips

I keep trying to lose weight… but it keeps finding me!  ~Author Unknown

I never worry about diets.  The only carrots that interest me are the number you get in a diamond.  ~Mae West

The older you get, the tougher it is to lose weight, because by then your body and your fat are really good friends.  ~Author Unknown

Never eat more than you can lift.  ~Miss Piggy
