weight < 220

There is an episode (Shadow Dancing) of Babylon 5 where Marcus offers to teach Susan Ivanova how to speak Minbari, and she says it'll take a year, and he responds, "how old will you be in a year if you don't learn to speak Minbari?"

I'm not posting this to solicit kudos, but rather to suggest that weight loss can happen without pain, without the sudden drops and plateaus, and without giving up completely on foods you love. Like learning Minbari, it's a slow process, but has real results.

Also, I drink lots of water, and take a daily multi-vitamin.
