For Better or For Worse by Lynn Johnston for January 10, 2024

Sweat is the best diet.

So…Now those diet and weight loss books are in the fiction area?

Thing is, weight lost from sweating is easily replaced.

Just follow the “Donkey Diet”… that is, keep your AZZ out of the refrigerator.

HA

This is what we call a loaded topic!

Sooooo, you’re suggesting Elly move them back now for the same reason?

So git movin’ there, Lard-arsh

Books really are amazingly heavy. When I would train for a backpacking trip, I’d put books in my pack to get an appropriate weight and it’s amazing how much smaller that pack was than the pack I’d actually carry.

The only way diet books help.

Natural whole foods: Protein, veg, fruit, starches – ditch 99% liquid calories – weight drops right off. Moving helps, but can’t out move a poor diet.

the truth about weight lose, you get in shape at the gym and loose weight in the kitchen.

Speaking from my own experience(in 2003 I weighed 412 pounds) all diet books are worthless. I currently weigh between 215 and 220. After failing to lose weight after trying several diets I had Roex-en-Y gastric bypass surgery in 2003. I can’t overeat anymore as it is physically impossible, if I do eat even a little bit too much, I get sick and spend several miserable hours attempting, and failing, to throw up

Non-fiction must be easier to swallow. :}

So her answer should have been “All of them.”

Moira gained it all back when she add some cook books.

Way down yonder in New Orleans…in the land of the Cajun queens….there’s a garden of rich sauces…that’s what I mean…..

I was actually thinking the punch line was going to be something like they helped her financially because they’re such big sellers.

So eat the diet books! Fibre, roughage, etc

Trouble is, you gain weight by eating processed food because it’s easy and to follow a diet you have to cook. It’s the change of lifestyle that fails, not the food itself

That’s one way to lose weight.

Right where those books belong… in the Fiction section.

With that box it looks like Elly has a pretty healthy employee discount.

And eat less too

There is no such thing as something as simple as a “diet” — only a change of diet.
