re resp:20: Have you ever noticed what fat people usually eat?  They 
eat diet food!  Diet Coke, Ultra Slim Fast, salads... I shudder to 
think what they're doing to their bodies.  It hardly takes any of that 
type of garbage to turn almost anyone fat, as I've found to my 
sorrow.  A salad now and then, a switch to Diet Coke, and I've gained 
maybe 80 pounds in the last 10 years.  I've never seen a skinny person 
with an Ultra Slimfast in their hand.

I'm trying to eat healthier.  I had a bacon cheeseburger from Wendy's 
tonight.  My company helped; they bought us all pizza for lunch 
today.  I backslid some; I had a diet Coke with the pizza.  Even with 
all the evidence about how bad that stuff is for you, I still lapsed 
and had one.  I'm only human.  But with the weekend upon us, hopefully 
I won't be around such bad influences, at least for a few days.
