3) The Atkins diet cleome - I'm familiar with all these diets, and they're *just* convincing enough that nobody should feel bad about having tried them

1) Blood Type Diet
The only diet I'm familiar with on the list. Had to google the rest.

Sorry for making you wait, Gentlemen. Computer issues all blasted day. Originally posted by Invisible Brainiac: 3) The Atkins diet
cleome - I'm familiar with all these diets, and they're *just* convincing enough that nobody should feel bad about having tried them Yeah. I think a lot of it had to do with working in the office environment where I didn't have much in common with the other women there. The diet thing at least gave us something to talk about other than kids (of which I had none) and comics (about which they knew pretty much nothing, unless it was strips in the newspaper). I never tried Atkins, FWIW. By the time I'd heard of it, I'd already been diagnosed with kidney disease, so I was smart enough to know what a dirty word "ketosis" really is. Invisible Brainiac gets the next round!

I have the same problem with sports in the office! Don't watch none of it.
1. I munch on oatmeal with peanut butter and honey all day at the office.
2. I drink plenty of green tea and herb teas at the office.
3. I help myself to plenty of coffee with cream and sugar at the office.

No sense waiting for a 3rd guess, as HWW has it. I rarely drink coffee; I prefer tea. And I snack constantly throughout the day since I prefer grazing.

The other two choices were so healthy that coffee with cream and sugar stood out. During my attempts to learn to play guitar, I learned (or tried to learn) the following songs: 1. "Lady" by Styx 2. "Lonesome Loser" by Little River Band 3. "More Than a Feeling" by Boston

Kent has it. I never learned to play "Lonesome Loser," though I admired the guitar work (by David Briggs, I think).

Thanks for the reminder, Ibby. I forgot about this.
1. I have lost at least10 pounds in the past two weeks. 2. I have signed a lease for a new place and will be moving to a new apartment in Kitsilano, my favourite neighbourhood of Vancouver, in August. 3. I have been asked to do some artwork for a local charity.

I have been asked to do some artwork for a local charity. Not just me, but the entire life drawing club i belong to.
I have lost at least10 pounds in the past two weeks. A short bout of illness crimped my appetite for a few days two weeks ago, and I used that as a starting point to overhaul my eating habits, my exercise routine, and take some time away from beer.
After a brief foray a month ago or so, I have postponed apartment-hunting for the time being. No new apartment, although I would love to live in Kitsilano.
go, HWWey!

1. My car's brakes went out on the highway last week.
2. I've been driving a loaner car--a much smaller vehicle--and surprisingly enjoying it.
3. I get my car back tomorrow.

I have been driving a loaner car--a Ford Taurus, which is much smaller than my Jeep Cherokee, SUV, and, to my surprise, it's a very smooth ride.
I've been told I'll get my car back tomorrow, so, as far as I know, that's not a lie (yet).
But the brakes didn't go out. A gasket blew instead.
Back to you, Kent.

Okay. I have plans for tomorrow:
1. I am going to a concert in Kitsilano. 2. I am planning a day-trip to Victoria, where I haven't been since 20 years ago this week (Saturday, to be precise). 3. I am meeting friends for dinner at my favorite Brazilian restaurant downtown.
