Detox Day 28 Olympic Gold Baby!

Bridget Jones’s Update of Clean Detox Day 28 or Day 15: BMI: 24.6 (+0.1) Back up. Activity Level: Still dizzy, first it was the back going out, and then now the dizziness. This stinks. Meditation: Did the sit in the chair exercise that Dr. Junger suggests. It works. Feel great. Brief Observations: Skin is great. Back to the way it was before the rashes came back. Hallelujah.

Still dizzy. Somehow it’s worse in bed. Rolling over. It hasn’t been so bad during the day, occasionally. Just. Wish. It. Would. Go. Away. It’s crimpin’ my style. Not working out, and I was just getting back into working out. I will just have to wait this out. And that’s OK.

What I do want to talk about is the Winter Olympics. Most have watched the skating, skiing, but TheBetsy has been keeping her watchful eye on the commercials.

By far, the gold has to go to this gem by P&G:

It hits on all notes. It is poignant. It plays to our hearts, especially if we have kids. And, face it, if you’re buying P& G, and watching the Olympics, you’re at least an adult. And if it’s a weeknight viewer, you’re most likely a parent. They did a fantastic job fitting the ads to this particular market segment.

This commercial brings the human side of the equation. Not the athlete, not the brief 1:30 bio done by a CBS Sports commentators but the essence of the struggle, the dedication, the necessary sacrifice and support necessary to make it to the olympics, let alone medal in an event. Ever athlete is the kid that parent took to practice, watch during competition finger crossed, panic at every fall, pepped talked during every crises of confidence and rehabilitate after every injury. That mom’s look is truly worth a thousand words. Hopes, dreams, fears, stress. It’s a brilliantly crafted piece.
