There isn't any real science to back it up. The blood type diet tells me to avoid beans. I tell it to shove it.

I try not to let other people dictate how I feel about trying to lose weight. It's been a struggle.

Alcohol is poison . . . tasty, tasty poison. But seriously, alcohol in moderation isn't so bad.
