I love the pic. of the garden, my parents still grow their own veggies, they never worry about recalls, they do it right! @Crystal,

During the month of April, May and June we have son's b-day, my b-day, brother in law B-day, mother's day, sister's b-day, mom's b-day, other son's birthday, father's day, my anniversary, and sometimes a graduation, which all involve cake. If that's not enough cake, I'm sure someone in my family will be making a flag cake for the 4th-LOL Good thing I'm picky, I only eat cheesecake (my b-day). The cake statement made me laugh.

Totally agree, there's just one problem... Many restaurants I go to (not steakhouses, I'm talking about the cafes with the quiches and coffees) will give you a dixie cup when you ask for water with your meal. Anyone know what I'm talking about? You order even a small soda and they give a regular cup to fill up at the fountain station, but you order a water and they give you a 3oz thimble. Maybe I don't need 8 glasses of water with my meal, but I'd like at least one! “ditch the monster soda fountain drinks and instead opt for a glass of water.”

I would caution against that. Also while I am discussing eating habits, I have had issue with "comfort eating", I was wondering if there were others reading this post that had issue with comfort foods or comfort eating?

I am a 6'2", 165 lb, 18 year old in decent shape. But because more than half of American adults are overweight, I suppose I look absolutely strange to all of my parents' friends, (many of whom knew me back when I was 240 lbs) who give all sorts of annoying comments about how I need to "fatten up." (The worst is probably when really overweight people try and tell me that) Then, on the other side, I have my incredibly skinny cross country friends who just couldn't possibly understand why I would ever skip the cake and ice cream at parties and whatnot. they all think I'm 100% crazy for ever giving the least of a damn about what I eat. God forbid I eat what I want, exercise self-control, and feel good about it! Since I just graduated high school and there are 100 billion grad parties to go to early in the summer, it's a test of discipline now more than ever. But I'm all the better for it :) I especially identify with the comment about people insisting that you need to “put some meat on your bones.” I am a 6′2″, 165 lb, 18 year old in decent shape.
