<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks Frank, that was great! We had not
heard from you in awhile. Happy New Year! </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm going back to South Beach, (that is diet)
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Over Christmas I ate everything that didn't
move. But worked my South Beach when I could, and continued to exercise,
so I only gained a little. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I love this way of healthy eating. The
desserts in South Beach are sufficient, and you don't have to go
hungry.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I feel it is part of my responsibility as a parent,
& grandparent, to maintain a healthy lifestyle. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The Obesity in our country is hurting us. I
wish more people would try the South Beach. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV></DIV>T'was The Week After Christmas
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>'Twas the week after Christmas, and all through the house
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>Nothing would fit me, not even a blouse.
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>The cookies I'd nibble, the eggnog I'd taste
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>All the holiday parties had gone to my waist.
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>When I got on the scales, there arose such a number!
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>When I walked to the store (less a walk than a lumber).
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>I'd remember the marvelous meals I'd prepared;
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>The gravies and sauces and beef nicely rared...
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>The wine and the rumballs, the bread and the cheese
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>And the way I'd never said, "No thank you, please."
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>As I dressed myself in my husband's old shirt
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>And prepared once again to battle the dirt...
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>I said to myself, as I only can
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>"You can't spend a winter dressed like a man!"
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>So...away with the last of the sour cream dip,
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>Get rid of the fruit cake, every cracker and chip.
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>Every last bit of food that I like must be banished
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>'Till all the additional ounces have vanished.
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>I won't have a cookie, not even a lick,
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>I'll want only to chew on a long celery stick.
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>I won't have hot biscuits, or cornbread, or pie,
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>I'll munch on a carrot and quietly cry.
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>I'm hungry, I'm lonesome, and life is a bore...
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>But isn't that what January is for?
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>Unable to giggle, no longer a riot
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>Happy New Years to All and to All a Good Diet
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV></DIV>
