Breathe that country air in, ~ Exhale city sludge. Eat your fruits and vegetables, ~ Avoid bad fats and fudge! Bend and stretch your body, ~ Get rid of all the kinks. Eat grains and beans ~ fish and nuts, ~ Pass on those sausage links! By looking on the brighter side, Of every situation, You'll stress less and not depress, ~ Avoiding constipation! You're sure to live much longer, By caring more for you. So make some simple changes, ~ The time is overdue! [This message has been edited by Earth Angel (09-17-2004 11:29 AM).] |

Morning sweet Linda!! I know... I know you are so right! But darn it....I do love the occasional piece of chocolate fudge! Much enjoyed the reminders of eating for good health. ~Smiles & Hugs, Nancy~ ~Autumn..the year's last, loveliest smile.~ |

Good morning to you, Nice Nancy! I can spout 'em, but I don't always follow them myself! lol Care for a piece of my heavenly homemade maple walnut chocolate fudge? Have a happy day! Linda |

You'll stress less and not depress, ~ Avoiding constipation! Words to live by, but gawd, you're cracking me up EA. And that's the best medicine of all. |

This is an awesome poem, and such a perfect time to read it. I was just presented with some leftover cake that smells so delicious I don't know if I can stay away from it. |

Words to live by but ... we're only human. A change a day keeps more than the aches away - and it could just be a mental change. |

SouthernWinds ~ I have a little trick that works SOME of the time! I imagine myself eating something decadently rich and fattening. I can actually smell it, taste it, and enjoy the whole experience without actually eating it! EA |

Suthern Belle ~ I'm visualize you trying to get into a comfortable position! ~ It must be downright impossible with that hoop skirt you are wearing and that emense picture hat with bows 'n such all over the place! lol ~ I'd never take away your fudge! But you don't really need it! ~ You are sweet enough as you are! (Oh, my! I do sound hokey, don't I? lol) To Love, Lust, Laughter ~ and Fudge! Linda |

Oh! Call them "simple changes" ... they require a strong will ..... I agree, in my case, time is overdue! Just had some chocolate ...haha! But, that's why I am in good spirits! Or .... is it an illusion? Loving you, bright poetess. Margherita |

Margherita ~ Some of the time I have incredible amounts of will power ~ but at others I have no power at all to carry out my will! ~ Looks like I'm a human afterall! lol Nothing like a good piece of chocolate to lift one's spirits! Loved your reply, Majestic Margherita the Mischievous! Linda |

So good food you would eat more veggies, less red meat and from the juicer you would spout orange or red or green things out pump up those buns that sag kick up those feet that drag okeeedokee artichokee but as far as droppin' the fudge! From that one vice, I'll not budge! Susan Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind. |
