Losing 7 pounds

I always panic when gmail is down for whatever reason (source).
Anyway, back to normal blogging here... according to Forbes mag (source)...
- 3.8 million people in the US weigh more than 300 pounds
- The average adult female in the US weighs 163 pounds, a new record
So, if I lose 7 pounds, I'll weigh as much as the average chick. He he.
I can't imagine being 3 clicks. It's like willfully disabling yourself or something. Jeez, life is hard enough on its own without working against yourself. And I know some people are into the whole "food addiction" thing, ala Oprah. All I can tell you is people never used to be addicted to food. It's one of those weird "things that have changed" in the last 47 years. I actually prefer Ray Kurzweil's notion that we are coping (not too well) with ultra-cheap food for the first time in our existence as a species. This will require a new, learned level of self-control. Anyway.
QOTD

"Everything in moderation"I totally buy into that. Thanks, Ari. I heart the moderation thing because you gotta add a dash of subtlety to "get" it. It's powerful if you do. But I gotta go chase 40-somethings right now, so later.
- Aristotle, well sort of... I'm paraphrasing here
And I say huzzah to the monokini. Huzzah!
huzzah indeed... yow, bill
