My exwife was a strict vegetarian, so I went along for the ride on a whim. Ended up doing it for about eight years. Quit smoking on a whim, it's been almost 24 years. It's true, MissD. Set your mind to it, and you can move mountains.

What's rare about will power? Millions of people have it ... at various points in their lives. You make choices every day that will affect you either positively or negatively, and that includes what goes into your body.

I'd bet that the elephant'd want his penis back, too. Are you sure you're willing to give it up?

I thought of posting this when I read one of Zanny's posts about her competition to be Rangely's Biggest Loser. Many of us struggle with dieting and weight issues. I came across the following chart that seemed to help me put into perspective how significant (or insignificant) a weight loss (or weight gain) can be.

Your weight loss =

1 pound = a Guinea Pig
1.5 pounds = a dozen Krispy Kreme glazed donuts
2 pounds = a rack of baby back ribs
3 pounds =...
