I read somewhere recently that it's a myth about the negative calorie thing, but I don't have a problem believing it's true. I mean, if something has near to no calories, you use up more taking the stuff out of the refrigerator and chopping it! nancy |

Same with me. Met one about 30 years ago and she was the correct weight and looked good. Now anorexic and she looks way older than she is. Sad. |

Now anorexic and she looks way older than she is. Sad. I will never forget the young woman who landed in my office my first year teaching nutrition at UNC Greensboro. It was the coldest day of the winter, and she came to get course advice. Her thighs were about as big around as my forearms (and I'm relatively small-framed). She might have weighed 85 lb. soaking wet in six layers of sweatsuits. She didn't last half the semester without needing to go back into treatment for anorexia. One of the courses she took was a food science lab, and sampling the lab work was too much for her psychologically. Eating disorders are terrible diseases, and the relapse rate is very high.

I appreciate the differences between lettuces and like them mixed together also... I'll eat anything but head lettuce, because I HATE head lettuce. I love designer greens (mixes). Trader Joe's "Herb Salad Mix" mix (http://www.cravingideas.com/.a/6a00d...26e4970c-500wi) is really, really good. I'm the person who feels the same way about squash. I can eat a different squash 5 days out of 7 for months and never feel like I'm "eating squash *again*". My standard dressing (home made) isn't creamy either. It's a vinaigrette with Italian herbs and garlic. > as for celery sticks, I am in love with this stuff from Costco > 'Skotidakis Jalepeno Yogurt Dip made with strained Greek yogurt ' > 50 calories for 2 tablespoons Not a big dip person.
