I’m not sure how they figured this out, but I heard on the radio that the average human eats eight spiders in their lifetime at night.

On my diet, that has implications.

I’m a bariatric surgery patient.  We’re only allowed to eat small meals. So the spider thing actually works. Usually, I eat two bites of something and that’s it. I had the operation done three months ago and I’ve already 40 pounds, with 120 to go.

My insurance company from work wouldn’t pay for the surgery, even though I think it will make me healthier in the long run. But that’s insurance for you. I had to lose that weight. My granddaughter is two and I couldn’t babysit her, she was more than I could handle.

So where did I find the money? I went to Car Title Loans in Gardendale. They are a car pawn shop, but it doesn’t really work that way.  You keep your car, you just supply title information through the internet on their website. It’s great, you get the money in one day. I needed $4000 and my car was worth that and more.

The money is making me healthier, even if a few spiders crawl into my mouth once in a while!
