Dieting 101
Here's what I have to say about dieting:
Any questions?
: )
I'm not saying that I'm against the Atkins thing, or low-carb dieting, or dieting in general. It's just not for me. I think a proper balance of healthy eating and exercise can prevent a lot of this, not to mention reel in those that have gone astray in their habits.
P.S. I will be sporting this shirt in addition to posting it on my blog : D

Where, oh where did you get that? I must have one! I just must! And a side-note... what does "woot" mean? I imagine it's sort of a "woo-hoo" or other exclamatory phrase.

Donna,
I couldn't find the T-shirt, but I found this site:

And why would anyone ever where a I Love Carbs thong?

i myself have personal issues with carbs that i deal with, being italian and all, but my husband just lost 40 lbs and lowered his cholesterol 100 points with low carb and meds. i do agree though, moderation is key.

Donna, I got it at a store in the Monroeville Mall called Delia*s. There's also a catalog and online shopping if you're interested :) (And "woot" is an exclamatory phrase that I really adore!)
Brian, Why would anyone wear "I Love Carbs" paraphenalia? Because. (Underwear is a bit much... *blush*)
Stephanie, congrats to your hubby--I'm glad it does work for someone! It's fantastic when people can get their health back on track with a diet. Honestly, though, I fear that the media is pushing the Atkins craze a little too far. (Hence my glee with this teeshirt :)

Wearing my CARBS shirt today :^D
Just FYI... ;^)

Karissa,
I loved the shirt... how cute! I agree, I love carbs and I love food, so what if I get larger than I am... I work it off walking 2 miles to school everyday from my car... plus 3 miles since I am a waitress. FOOD IS THE BEST!
