I drink A LOT of water a day, I watch what I eat as much as possible, I try to eat healthily etc etc. But wow. 5'5" and 100-105 lbs? I wish I were lactose intolerant, too! My housemate is, and she drinks milk sometimes to make her tummy sick and "lose weight" :P What’s sad is that I already know all these, but I still insist on leading an unhealthy lifestyle (I’ve cut down on my alcohol intake, though).

I drink A LOT of water, that's basically all I drink. My problem is I love junk food like french fries, thankfully I'm not a big fan of sweets I just love fried salty foods. I never do portions either, I know I need to start watching how much of and what I eat before it catches up with me! Plus, I need my boobs to shrink, they kill my back!

As you might know from reading my diet/health section I was severely overweight for my height and my blood levels were off the charts. I now sit at your old weight and I wear a size 6 and I've realized this (or perhaps a little smaller 125) is my happy healthy weight. Diets don't work and I think that the media only further makes women and men think that there are quick fixes and no need for actual lifestyle changes when in reality it IS a lifestyle. Great blog, and it's inspired me to write something as well. I agree with you on so many levels here.

I miss iced tea so much! They have this bellini tea at Olive Garden that just oooooooooo! It's so good! lol probably not good FOR me though since I think it is sweetened. Not sure.

That doesn't have any calories in it but I always wondered how good it really was. I can't drink regular, unsweetened green tea. I need some type of sweetener. What about Diet Green Tea like Lipton?

That's a completely different story. Not all kinds of tea stain your teeth. It's mostly just black tea. I don't think that herbal teas and green teas stain your teeth. If they do, it isn't as much as black tea might. But, if you rinse your mouth out with water after you drink it you should be fine. :) You can steam them. It's probably the easiest way. In a pot with an inch or less of water, bring the water to a boil, add the greens, put a lid on the pot, and let it simmer for a couple of minutes. They cook really quickly, so keep an eye on them! Over cooking can lead to nutrient loss. When I mentioned chemicals, I was referring to in food, not medication. That’s a completely different story.

Like medicine? I take quite a number of medications, and multiple times daily. Without these, I likely wouldn't survive. Do all kinds of tea stain teeth? I know you didn't mention that, and I used to drink tea every evening growing up, until I got older and realized (or at least think I did) it was staining my teeth. How do you prep spinach, kale, collard greens, etc.? Do our bodies not need chemicals sometimes? Like medicine? I take quite a number of medications, and multiple times daily.
