Diet Coke
I have heard that drinking a dark diet drink such as Diet Coke, Diet Dr Pepper, etc. that fat sticks to the dark colors, but drinking Diet Sprite, Diet 7Up is better? Those of you who have lost weight, do you still drink a Diet Coke? I am having a hard time giving up that lunch time diet coke up. Thanks

It takes 25 minutes to feel full
In one of those posts that keeps getting bumped up for newbies, it mentions that it takes about 25 minutes for your brain to signal to your stomach that you are full. The suggestion in the article is to eat half your meal, drink some water, wait about 20 min. and see if you are still hungry. Most of the time you won't be…

I got out to get a tool and when I got back in I whacked my forehead on the roof of the car! :explode: (t-tops are off because it's stripped down to bare metal) I just sat down and couldn't say a word. Trust me, I thought of a few! It…

Never Gonna Give Up!!!
