| Weight Loss | Sugar? | May 28 2008 22:46 (UTC) |

It would be a good idea to research the amount of fructose (sugar that occurs naturally in fruit) in each fruit. For example, until I looked it up, I had no idea that bananas have to most sugar of the fruits. Obviously there are fruits that are lower/higher than others. As Skookum said, moderation is the key. Yes, fruits and vegetables are good for you, but too much of one or the other can always be harmful to a degree. I knew a guy who never ate candy or sugar but had multiple pieces of fruit for each meal. He ended up being diabetic. I would say follow the food pyramid and the suggested number of servings per day. |

I need to clarify one point....I don't consider a daily multi-vitamin a supplement. Supplements in my definition are things like creatine that shove mass amounts of stuff into your body - protein being the most common - in order to make larger than normal gains towards a goal. Daily vitamins of calcium for women, or iron for immune system during flu season, do not fit my definition of supplements. Also, if you'll refer back to my initial reply at the very top, I said "Unless you have a medical condition that dictates taking them, I would stay away." I am not against them totally, however, I still believe that you can get all you need by your diet alone. |

I don't believe in any supplements. You should be able to take in all your daily requirements with your diet. You want more protein? Eat more lean protein like fish, eggs, chicken breast, etc... What happens to your body when the supplement goes away? Your body gets dependent and when you remove it, your body goes into a type of withdrawal. Supplements are for people who don't eat right. Unless you have a medical condition that dictates taking them, I would stay away. |

** POOF ** Time fast forwarded, unfortunately, your learning did not. You failed every test, every course, and must now repeat them. I wish I could spend every weekend in the mountains camping and trout fishing.

An entire medium banana is about 140. |

With the pencil stuck in my mouth, I type slowly, one key at a time. The mechanics fixed your car very well, too well in fact, and added a turbo boost which you used to try to drive to Vegas in 1 hour. Unfortunately, those pesky cactus got in the way, flattened all your tires and made you wreck, totaling your car. Luckily you weren't hurt but now you have to buy a new auto, perhaps something slower like a pinto or fiesta. I wish someone would go to my meetings for me. |

Funny, but not really...my wife just got "laid off" last week. Granted, you won Powerball last Saturday, with 275 million other people. After taxes, you got 50 cents. I wish my torn achilles tendon would heal faster and stronger. |

* POOF * Three of the hottest rockstar boyfriends now live with you. However, since they are rockstars, they are all constantly on tour so you are alone anyway. To make matters worse, since they are so hot, all the ladies want them. Your boyfriends take full advantage of their "hospitality" because they are lonely too, and well, they ARE rockstars. I wish work would be cancelled today instead of a 3 hour delay. (I'm salary so I'd get paid anyway.) |

* POOF * You got so lucky, you contracted a non-curable venerial disease. I wish my wife would find a high-paying, lots of time off career. |
