I could use some help with this, too. Logging my diet publicly on this website has helped immensely, as I don't want all my friends on here to see that I downed an entire package of cookie dough or something of the sort.

Nick's in the Stick's, a local steakhouse, got me a couple of days ago. It wasn't the steak that really killed me, it was this rum punch concoction they call the Nicodemus. Alcohol tends to be what gets me. So many empty calories!
