That too. And even the dims had to give him and Roberts a standing ovation. Hee hee hee. Now if Stevens or Ginsberg will retire...
You're not bothering me!

It's completely balanced, loaded with fruits and veggies, and it actually seems to be changing my metabolism by the way the foods interact with each other chemically.
Best thing about it. You only go on it for 3 days, and some folks have lost 10 pounds in those 3 days! (I lost 4........the first 4 I've lost in about 6 or 7 years!)
Sometime when it's not this late, I'll tell you more about it, if you're interested.
It didn't hurt that I was raised by a dentist either. GOOD oral hygiene from birth. :)
Keep us posted. It really helps to have accountability to someone. Keeps you motivated.
I would be interested as well I need to loose about stone (14 1lbs). My size 12 clothes are a bit tight.
I would definately be interested in the diet. The thing I miss most on Atkins is fruit. I would kill for an apple or a pomegranite about now!
Good night Snugs
Will do. I've already started changing my diet so now I just have to get the exercise part going.
Your names for them make more sense than ours. Except that we don't have court, so I guess the shoemakers had to contrive something new.
Nighty night, snugs. God bless and keep you and your dad.
Night, snugs. See ya tomorrow.
I've lost a total of 8 pounds since I started, but that was over Thanksgiving and Christmas (and a wedding, and an anniverary of our first date ;) so I gained some back and lost it again.
You have to keep in mind that I always am careful about what I eat, and have been working on losing for years, to no avail.
This is sort of a miracle for me. A small one, but a nice one.
My husband checked it out with the clinical dietician at his hospital, and she gave it the green light. And it's only three days. You can do ANYTHING for three days!
(Maybe I'll post it this weekend....)
The problem I have with any kind of real diet is that I'm at school. So I don't have much of a choice. I'm doing what I can. I've been eating more vegetables and trying to stay away from the cheeseburgers. But there's only so much I can do here. We do have the cafe, though, which serves subs and salads and I go there if the cafeteria is serving something REALLY fatty like fried chicken or something. Or sometimes just because I want to.
At least it's better now with salad bars and fruit to choose from.
When I was in school, we had starch dinners with starch on top and starch for dessert. There was no hope.
And in addition, girls didn't have the use of the gym because..........well, girls were just girls, and the guys needed to have it (which was why I was a feminist back then :).
It was a tough thing. Fortunately back then I lost weight easily, and lost what I had gained throughout the year when I got home for the summer.
Time for bed now! Nice talking with you, ilovew. Hang in there, kiddo!
Good night, Ohio. See ya tomorrow :)
Anyway, I flunked the credit card purchase, didn't bother to go back and try again when I got credit card company straightened out, and next thing you know, I got a calendar in the mail.
I'd mail it to you except I sent it off to the guys on Ward 57 at Walter Reed. They need it more than I do. Each guy will take the month that corresponds with his Birthday, until they are gone! Wish I had more to send.
Last year, I got 20 of them, free, from the RNC when I told them what I wanted to do with them. The President arrived about a week after I had given them out - and signed many of the pages from that calendar. I'd like to think that he heard about me, and how I've been giving out HIS calendars to the guys!!!
