Reading the labels of the foods you buy will do more with less effort. I found that most (semi-) prepared foods/snacks/cookies/ready to use ingredients for meals contain so much sugar that you might as well save yourself the trouble of dieting and start avoiding those. I've really had to laugh at the goats (derogatory word for those women with near perfect figures complaining to me [of all people] about how fat they look), ingesting special diet stuff, training 'till their tongues touched the ground and then eating one off those nice low fat yoghurts which after close inspection turn out to be 20 grams of sugar for every 100 grams of product.<evil grin>] :oD. I'd say to be aware of what you eat is half the battle. Sonja _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
