Ouch!!!

My body aches because of my tae bo....hahaha!!! Well, at least it's for my own good...got to get rid of this fats I have on my tummy...weeeeee!!! It's kinda hard at first but from time to time I know I will get use to it...it's fun really.

Here's what I have read while relaxing today....it titled: It's Not What You Eat That Counts....

Many of us are fighting to shed those five pounds we picked up over the years. Fortunately, there is a sensible way to avoid those excess calories that wreak havoc on the Battle of the Bulge. Simply follow these rules which have been passed down by calorie counters through the generations:

1.) Anything eaten in small increments has no calories. If someone in your office brings in a box of cookies, and you only nibble each time you pass by, you do not have to count those calories.

2.) Anything eaten standing up, or off someone else's plate, does not count.

3.) Gulps count, sips don't.

4.) Whatever you purchase from a street vendor has fewer calories than the same item consumed at home.

5.) The calories in hard candy or gum are too minuscule  to bother with. Eat as much as you want.

6.) Whatever you eat that was prepared by your child (no matter how old) does not have calories.

7.) Neatness cancels calories. If you take an extra bit of cake to even off the slice, those calories do not exist. Ditto for leveling off a pint of ice cream.

8.) Anything you cook yourself has reduced calories because of the huge amount of energy you have expended preparing it.
