Health tip: Hate yourself enough to love yourself

Weigh in: April 6, 2009

I’m happy to report that I did much better during this second week of the diet than I did during the second week of the diet back in June 2006 (Wow, has it been that long already?) when I gained 3 pounds. This week I’m down another four pounds and I currently weigh 199 pounds. My [...]
