So.. Queen Latifah is joining the ranks of Jenny Craig.. bravo for her..
Yes, for years she has been a fat champion.. not letting her weight stop her and being proud of her curves... now she has opted for a healthier lifestyle .. and there are some folks in the Fatlands.. who are very unhappy with her.. they feel she has betrayed them... AWW boohoo for them.. BETRAYED THEM? what on earth is that about.????.. she made a decision that is better for her... maybe her doctors told her.. like I was told.. Do this or die!!! so... she is going to do it in 2008... YAY QUEEN LATIFAH.. may you find much success and happiness with your new lifestyle changes... Rock on!! is what I say!!! follow link to story:

egads! I got an ad in my EMAIL for that deep pizza today. I looked at it and my stomach just lurched. I can't even THINK of eating something like that these days!

I've been talking to my kids recently about calories and how many are in certain foods, and what the average caloric intake is supposed to be. On the TOday show before Thanksgiving they were saying that an AVERAGE Thanksgiving meal is 7000 calories! That's 3 and a half days worth of caloric intake for the average person!

I imagine the average Christmas dinner is much the same.

The good news is that it seems that after a while the body gets USED to not having it. I know that when I "pig out" I'm pigging out on about 1/3 the food I used to pig out on. And some foods I can't even bear to bring near my lips!

Have I mentioned before how much I love the song you have on your site? It's very nice!
As for the website exposing all those calories in fast food - THAT was scary!

Thanks for all those links, I am going to have to take some time to check them all out. But they look like good reads! :D

Greed! And ME first! It's a huge problem in our society. And it's obvious most, I think, when you look at our food choices and consumption. SAD!! Very sad! :(

We had a great Saturday. We went out and terrorized folks with Merry Christmas...to all their Happy Holidays, lol. ;)

I heart Queen Latifah and I'm proud of her right along with you! She is a level headed, beautiful, smart, articulate, non hollywood type that I applaud for making this choice!!

Happy Holidays my friend!
