Ya know what, don't even bother reading this post. Just scroll down to what I wrote almost a year ago and re-read it, because the sentiments are the same.

At least I made a bit of progress since then. I bought a cookbook that, although it's still vegan, it's far from low fat. Since I bought Vegan With A Vengeance last month I've been having fun baking again. Whodda thunk you could make healthier cupcakes? I have to cut back on the sugar and use some whole wheat flour in them because of my hypoglycemia and teeth (I had to hit the dentist after the third batch of cupcakes, but there's no cavity), but even with those slight changes the food is delicious.

I'm allowing myself fruit juice again, something I avoided for years because Dr. McDougall said juices are bad for you.

I even have real chocolate now and then again, and can even keep a bag of chocolate chip cookies in the house without devouring them within 24 hours or less. Holy shiitake! I guess OO does work when you work it!

And I'm about to draw the line on scrambled tofu. I just had it again today, only the third time ever, and not only does it taste horrible and nothing like eggs, I could buy an entire dozen organic eggs from free-range chickens for what it cost to make! Why eat bad tasting food?

And what I'm about to say next will be no surprise to the chronic dieters out there. You know when I lost the most weight? Yep, after I stopped the very low fat, low cal food plan and started eating the baked goods and real foods again.

I Miss Richard Simmons

 The voice, the hair, the outfits, that laugh - I miss every single thing about that glitzy, ditsy, outrageous person. Oh, yes, his workouts...
