I have a box of books about weight loss that I have recently finished reading.
I found them all worthwhile. Any book that I don’t finish and find worthwhile ends up burning in our burn barrel.

Who wants these?

As most of you know, I switch diets every week. I’m doing that for a variety of reasons:

Since then, the eating plan rules have been:

I talk a lot about the evils of television on other blogs that have to do with other subjects.
It is well known that several studies have found a link between television watching and childhood obesity here in the U.S. Those studies haven’t yet been performed on adults as far as I know. On other blogs, […]

It is reportedly used by locals when on long walking journeys to reduce hunger.
It has recently become a huge fad for weight loss in America. The plant is dried, ground up into a powder and packed into a magic pill.
At first, I saw no use for this […]
