Bittersweet story: I finally bit the bullet and decided to lose the 35 extra pounds I’ve been carrying around since before I had my kids. Doing a almost-no-fat, low-carb, no sugar thing and it’s working like gangbusters – 20+ pounds in 6 weeks. I said to my son as he watched me manage to button an old pair of jeans with a big smile on my face, ‘So. Now you can be proud of Mommy again.’ My little punkin said: ‘Mama, I’m ALWAYS proud of you.’

I quit smoking in January. Argh! Must diet! I am a seasonal chef and my season is just starting, must diet!

Losing weight is no different than quitting smoking or drinking…

Yo Jon, kick some ass fat!

This stumbling may steal time, but every now and then you come across a pearl in the ocean of the Internet like this.

Just found your site for the first time; great writing! (And this comes from a former university-level English professor, so you know I’m clueless.) I’ll be reading eagerly.

For what it’s worth, the Shangrila diet really works for me. A shot of flax seed oil a day and I’m just not hungry. Total mind/body hack.
