Advice column - losing weight
Amy Alkon is my favorite no-nonsense advice columnist. (Taken from Westword magazine) When I married my wife seven years ago, she was 20 pounds lighter.

leroy
I got this this morning and it is one of my all time favorites. A woman walks into the downtown welfare office, trailed by 15 kids. 'WOW!' the social worker exclaims. 'Are they all yours?'' 'Yep, they are all mine,' the flustered momma sighs, having heard that question a thousand times before. She says, 'Sit down Leroy.'…

water or coke
WATER #1. 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated. (Likely applies to half the world population) #2. In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak that it is mistaken for hunger. #3. Even MILD dehydration will slow down one's metabolism as 3%. #4. One glass of water will shut down midnight hunger pangs for…

I've been gone FOREVER, and now I'm crawling back
So as it goes I fell off the wagon and it kept on goin without me. The work I had accomplished, all 20 lbs. of it plus some more came back to haunt me.

Celebrity Apprentice Tonight Spoilers
That was the best Apprentice episode ever. I cried the last 5 minutes. Everyone in the room cared for Dennis enough to tell him the truth. Trump has always said he never drank. I already think Jesse is a great guy and the way he started the truth telling was just non judgemental in a caring way especially he's been in…

Seems like a great idea and yet not sure why I'm hesitant. I guess perhaps afraid of my own success. But I do know seeing is believing. And if you have done fitpics. Do…
