Guest guest Posted April 2, 2003 Report Share Posted April 2, 2003 Life's short....make sure you enjoy your diet Pepsi when you drink it and don't ruin it with guilt! I just saw a really skinny, good-looking guy in the bagel store where I went this am because I'm out of coffee. I bought a bagel, half of which I'll eat with peanut butter and cream cheese. I mentally flogged myself as I saw the skinny guy because here I was eating carbs. It doesn't matter! I can enjoy this bagel. I eat half of one several times a week and I'm an in-shape, nice-looking guy. The message is, after being obese, it is so easy to flog over everything that goes in the mouth! Enjoy it!

Guest guest Posted April 2, 2003 Report Share Posted April 2, 2003 I have the same problem, never thirsty.

Guest guest Posted April 2, 2003 Report Share Posted April 2, 2003 It's funny, because I just had this discussion with someone offline (feeling funny because someone saw me eating something). I go to Disney World frequently and I was walking around with my kids and I had a box of popcorn in my hands. I made sure that people saw me giving it to the kids so that no one would think I was eating it. I wish I could get over that feeling of people watching me when I eat. I'm a normal sized person now, and I wouldn't think twice about it if I saw someone my size eating something " bad " for them. I still feel like that MO person though, the one who everyone WAS looking at. ------------------------------------------------ Terry Mayers 5DollarHosting.com® http://www.5dollarhosting.com (877)-838-HOST / .... because it shouldn't cost a fortune to make a fortune! ® Re: Relora and water !!

Guest guest Posted April 2, 2003 Report Share Posted April 2, 2003 Ahhh, there's the rub. Same thing happened to me with Phen fen...nothing much. That's not a bad thing, though, could have been on it for longer than 3 months then. in NJ ********************* > <<OK, this is really intriguing.
