I look forward to a lot healthier new year, with great skin, bundles of energy for play, and a nice more toned body to enjoy. I wish you a lot of luck in it... I bought Carol Alt's "Raw Foods" book, and it was pretty helpful. I wasn't crazy about the raw meat part, but other than that it gave some good advice. There are some new ones out also and some great websites..... but I am sure you know that already..lol. Preaching to the choir...[;)] Kasha

Level, Can you email me on the other side about this raw food diet? Sounds interesting. Can I google it? Merry Christmas and lean New Year! Good luck with the test.

Ya didn't ask me, but I had a few websites I thought I would put out there for you and anyone else interested. They are full of pretty good info, and your local library probably also has some good books on it.

Hi bandit [;)]. I'll be happy to send you some info, and yes, you can get lots of good stuff through Google. I'm about to hop in the shower, so it'll be this evening before I can mail you. Merry Christmas to you too, good lady.

It really doesn't matter what you eat. It's HOW MUCH that counts. If you consume more calories than you burn you'll maintain or gain weight. If you pour a gallon of water in a 5 gal. bucket everyday and drink 3 quarts the bucket will get full, slowly for sure, but full none the less. It really is that simple but that doesn't mean easy. In fact we all know that it's damned difficult to lose weight. Complicating the matter is we HAVE to eat to live. We don't NEED to smoke or drink to live. I've been sober and smoke free for 23 years and I haven't died yet. But without food 7 weeks is about tops. Inactivity is the main culprit and its partner is technology. WE need to develop ways to increase activity so our metabolism maintains a minus sum game until we reach an optimum weight and then a zero sum game to maitain. It's all about choice. I can eat anything I want, any time, any day IF I'm willing to pay the price. Now I dearly love peanut butter. I had it for lunch everyday for 4 years in high school. I weighed 145 at 6'. I was very active. Walked a mile to & from school every day, ran track etc. But now I gain weght just looking at the stuff. I still eat peanut butter but only once a year or less. Most of time I choose *NOT* to eat PB. At first I had to make that choice on a daily basis, now it's automatic. It's like fighting acoholism. TODAY I choose not to drink, TODAY I choose not to smoke, TODAY I choose not to eat PB. Tday it's no longer a concientous choice and I would have to make a concious choice to drink, smoke or eat PB. Our inactivity can reach a level that reducing coloric intake intake is not enough. I can hear some of you say "but I AM active". My question then is are you still overweight? IF yes, you're not active enough. Put more walking into your daily routine. Take the stairs - yes it'll kill ya - but you'll get used to it. Park where your car is all alone. Take a walk after eating 15-20 min During the Christmas season eat what you want just in smaller quantities or skip seconds or skip thirds if you're a 3 plater. DON"T give it up just CHOOSE to eat less. Choose not to nibble. Ok, OK I'll quit here. Contact me off the boards if you want to continue wit a dialogue.

Yeah ppl suck at taking blood and i have at times taken the damn needle and did it myself. Let us know on Friday how it goes. Hopefully its nothing more then what diet can change.
