It still hurts, but maybe a little less.<BR/><BR/>marmitetoasty - hey there! and belated crimbo wishes to you, too. I'm all about the detox. I just wouldn't know where to start.<BR/><BR/>flowerpot - she really was a piece of work, wasn't she? <BR/><BR/>pixelpi - TG was when my problem started too.

I swear I do.<BR/><BR/>my two cents - tums and gas-x. The diet of champions. BMI is body mass index (as ped crossing said). It tells you if you're underweight, right on, over or obese. Google BMI and it will give you lots of online calculators. If it were me I'd wait until January.<BR/><BR/>kimberly - well, I'd rather be a cockeyed optimist than...a realist??<BR/><BR/>ped crossing - that's also a problem here. I hate to throw it away, so I eat it. I'd be better off throwing it away.<BR/><BR/>jo - we do have zantac. I should really give it a shot. But this will make you laugh - I hate taking medicine!<BR/><BR/>potty mummy - well, sure. How else would we get rid of it? burp.<BR/><BR/>stacie - I do feel better today, but I still feel like the Goodyear blimp. But I do love tamales...<BR/><BR/>laurie - I said my BMI WAS right at the normal range. That was right before TG when I had lost four pounds. (and it was close, let me tell you.

He thought I meant something about self-control. Really, I just wanted to stop eating forever. Ugh. Tomorrow we do it all again at my sister's. <BR/><BR/>Meanwhile, I've unzipped my pants and my kids are making faces and silly voices with my fat rolls.
