Nicole could probably use a cleanse.

I've thought about this, but there's no way I'm giving up caffeine.   Try taking up ballet, Andy.
Oh, good heavens. I didn’t realize. I send my condolences out to the rest of the O’Connor family.

if you're a beer drinker and stop, you'll lose 10 to 20 lbs and keep it off.

Another way to lose weight is rails/cigarettes.

That cigarette thing is a bunch of effing bullshit! "Size 10 or Lung Cancer?" Well, that was pretty exciting when I heard that and instead of smoking just to combat second hand smoke at bars, I ramped up the tobacco smoke intake. I'm not making this up, either! I'm so pissed off because in the past year, I've become addicted to cigarettes and I haven't lost one effing pound. GOD DAMN CIGARETTE MARKETERS!

I notice you don't gainsay rails.

Also, meth is a good way to lose not only weight, but teeth.  Which in turn makes it harder to eat, which makes you lose more weight.... win/win!

I dropped dairy out of my diet and shed a few pounds right off the bat. Neil Numberman gave me some good advice, to never eat after ten. (But why were the evil Gremlins so much more svelt?) I've also laid off the bourbon and switched to the clear stuff if I'm out. In combo, all of this has had some good results.

A friend of mine just switched his routine to a bowl of cereal in the morning and a salad for lunch, and he dropped alot of weight.

I've stopped using sugar in my tea. Stopped buying candy too. And I don't eat bread anymore. And as I was saying in that exercise thread, I might buy an exercise bike.

I guess we'll see what happens.

I'd agree with this, since I've been out of school and my drinking has dropped to minimal levels there's definitely been a change.  Cutting out soda works wonders too.

I have no experience with rails or meth. Or anything along those lines. Thank goodness I was afraid of them, because I'm sure I would have liked them and I'd be an absolute mess right now instead of a normal, functioning adult.
I have a long history of booing

Herring can be somewhat fattening I hear.  Not to mention gravlax.

I enjoy exercise because it makes me feel better.  I don't know that it actually helps me lose any weight.  I don't really need to lose weight right now, but maybe it does help my fat not just gather at my midsection.  I also have experience with gaining weight from exercise, 10 years ago when I was really thin.

Yep, me too. I haven't quit - just realized that 2 or 3 beers every single night is a dumb and unnecessary habit. Have returned to weekend indulging rather than habitual drinking, and my gut receded in no time.

no beer, no soda, no bread, minimal dairy, no smoking, no eating 3 hours before bed, and ive started exercising.  i started to drink strictly water and only non-concentrate juices. 

i think the exercise will make the biggest difference.  not to mention, im not always the best at making healthy food decisions (especially when im feeling particularly lazy).  there is PLENTY of unhealthy vegetarian food to go around, but when im home i prefer pasta with fresh garlic and pepper, extra virgin olive oil, and squash/red peppers. 



of course, none of these things were in effect this last week.

What's so bad about bread? I could never give it up.

Couldn't you at least eat bread made with good, non-refined flours?

I think the answer to your last question is yes.  It seems like I've heard that most breads are just empty calories because the ingredients are stripped of all of their nutritional values, but I'm probably wrong.
Breakfast- I'm havin' a time
Wheelies- I'm havin' a time
Headlocks- I'm havin' a time
Drunk Tank- not so much a time
George St.- I'm havin' a time
Brenda- I'm havin' a time
Bingo- I'm havin' a time
House Arrest- I'm still havin' a time

I've been doing pretty well on the "live on a hill and have a broken refrigerator" diet/exercise plan.

You know, now that I think of it, my "Live in the south and have no air conditioning for half the summer" regimen from a couple of years ago turned out some pretty good results.
I'm warning you with peace and love.
