Moment With Mel: This Is My New Diet Idea

We all see stories about animals in Australia. Many times the animals are big and scary! One of my friends lives there now and there are times I'm amazed cause I don't think I could do it. Case in point: A woman was faced with quite the surprise while grocery shopping early this week.

Helaina Alati was shopping for spices in a local grocery store when a 10 foot long diamond python slithered out from the back of a shelf. It was within eight INCHES from her face! WTH?! I'd have lost it right there in aisle four!

Alati didn't freak out because she's a trained snake catcher. What are the odds?! She took video of the snake extending its body before telling the store staff. She actually got her catch bag and removed the snake.

The exchange with the staff was amusing to the woman who noted “I think they thought I was a bit crazy to be honest. I don’t think they knew what to say when I said there’s a 10-foot python in your aisle.”Helaina caught the serpent and released it into the wild.

Snakes totally FREAK me out! So I started thinking, this would be the perfect diet for me. If there was a massive snake near the ice cream, bread, and chips, I'd be skinny as hell! Forget about keto, forget about working out, a snake in the aisles of my favorite foods would stop me in my tracks!

Obviously, I'm joking but it WOULD work for me. And I'm sure I'm not alone! Watch the video and tell me this wouldn't keep ya away from your favorite "bad" foods. I mean, damn!
