Off the Air With Jeremy: Struggling With Weight and Food Issues
March 12, 2013 3:45 PM 
This is such a hard thing not only to talk about, but to put out there to all the world when people are already so mean and uncaring of other people’s struggles. First — you must know I feel very comfortable with you, and I am thankful that you are as supportive of me as you all are. I completely understand and appreciate that we have a bond, and I feel that every night when I am on the air from 7-12. That’s one of the many reasons I wanted to do this blog.
It’s not like people don’t know I’m fat. I mean … it’s obvious. What you might not know is I struggle with food — and I mean a lot. I have a love affair with it. It’s no doubt an addiction, and I struggle with it daily. I am watching my diet, and now I’m working out every day to help get all this weight off. I want to get healthy for my overall well-being, and to maybe look a little more presentable.
Today was my first day back in the gym with my trainer Michael since the surgery, and it makes me feel good to know I am getting back on track. Whether you understand my struggle or not, I sure would appreciate your thoughts and prayers. To all of you skinny people who can eat anything and everything without a worry or a pound gained — I’m jealous! To all of you who, like me, struggle with food — I wish I could take us all to Vegas to close down the buffet at the Bellagio … but I don’t think that would be a good idea!
See ya back here tomorrow at 5PM for a little behind-the-scenes look at my radio show, Taste of Country Nights.
Jeremy Robinson is the host of Taste of Country Nights, a syndicated radio show that airs on 41 stations across the United States on weeknights. Radio has been his life since the age of nine, when he “hosted” a show out of his bedroom. After almost 16 years on the air, country music isn’t just his job — it’s also his passion.

Female Arm Wrestler Has a Scream That Will Scare the Pants Off of You
May 19, 2013 10:00 AM I am NOT athletic at all. So, my tactic to win or at least appear like some sort of competition to my opponent is to look the part or sound the part. This female arm wrestler must have taken a play right out of the Leslie Morgan play book. Rule number 1....make your bark SO big, they won't notice you have no bite!! ;-)
Her scream would scare even the biggest, toughest male arm wrestler!

‘Sad Cat Diary’ Offers Hilarious Insight Into the Mind of a Cat
May 19, 2013 4:00 AM As, you know, Jon refers to me as 'The Cat Lady' on the air. Just because I adopted my first cat a year ago and have since acquired 7 more, doesn't make me a cat lady. Or does it??? ;-) Ok, I know it would appear that I, if I'm not the cat lady NOW, I am well on my way. In the past year, I have become very in tune with cats and all of their personalities. Maybe that's why I love them so much and they, in turn, are drawn to me. lol
I found a video that gives a little insight to the mind of the sad cat (which is only ONE of their many personalities) Watch, learn and laugh!! It's seriously, hilarious!
