The Heavy Weight of Clichés 🏋️♀️
Imagine this: You’re plopped in a cozy armchair, casual Saturday-comfy in your sweats, and contemplating signing up for a “health facility” to lose a few pounds. Or are you going to a “fat farm”? Shocking, right? This impolite term first rolled into our vocabulary during the second half of the 1900s.
The phrase has plumped up since the days it appeared in humorous contexts like the ABC television sitcom The Odd Couple back in 1971, where they quipped, “If you’re not fat, it’s a health farm; if you’re fat, it’s a fat farm.”

May you stroll through a health journey paved with humor, positivity, and the occasional donut. Clichés may be overused, but sometimes they remind us that laughter is the best cardio.
