[Sca-cooks] sugar problems

[Lisa]

Duriel,

I take this as a personal insult.  You just effectively called me a liar to
make my point.  Every thing I wrote here is flat out fact.  I am 5'4" and
weigh appoximately 100lbs.  Until my last son was born, that weight figure
was closer to 85-95 range.  I can STILL to this day wear the same size
clothes I wore in the 7th grade, and that was over 20 years ago.  The change
in my weight without change in size is due to redistribution of what limited
fat I have, and more muscle mass in different areas than before.  And before
I get blasted for being underweight and discussing being overweight, believe
me the physical problems due to being underweight can be as physically
detrimental as the problems from being overweight.  I have joints that are
giving out because of lack of fat in them to pad the bones, I have joints
that pop out of socket, and this is all from being overweight.  Yes, I have
had multiple doctors tell me that my weight is the problem, but there's
NOTHING I can do  to change my weight.  Believe me, I've tried!

As for the friend in college.... That is ALSO fact.  This was a private
college, hence the no vending machines.  We were the best of friends, and
spent all of our time together.  I have exaggerated NOTHING.
