Our Lady of Weight Loss | motivation: the kick in the tush club

Hearts and flowers are best,
but should that sweet, dark chocolate

make it impossible to rest,
write Our Lady and CONFESS!

St. Valentine's Lady

Your words are my food, your breath is my wine.
You are everything to me. ~ Sarah Bernhardt

Despite my love for red satin heart-shaped boxes filled with imported rich dark chocolates, and despite the fact that chocolate is an aphrodisiac (it does relax and stimulate), it is nonetheless a trigger food for me. In other words, if I indulge I run the risk of losing my weigh.

This St. Valentine's Day, I am going to celebrate by filling my bath* with flowers and serving food that is less costly than chocolate in terms of its fat and carb content - aphrodisiacs all!

The Champagne Lady, a close friend of Our Lady, reports that a 4 oz. glass of champagne averages only 92 calories, contains 0 fat gms. and only 3 carb gms. The 'drink of love' lowers inhibitions. The Champagne Lady recommends Nicolas Feuillatte and Charles Heidsieck, this year's sleepers. Bottoms up!

One tablespoon of caviar is approximately 40 calories and contains only 1 carb gm. and 2.9 fat gms. Caviar is known to stimulate the formation of testosterone, maintaining male functionality. Oysters on the half-shell - raw - may give you the opportunity to experience the masculine and feminine sides of love, simultaneously! Three ozs. raw are approximately 70 calories; 4 carb gms. and 2 fat gms.

*Bath tip: Buy a bunch of your favorite flowers, at 'open' stage. Cut off the heads and float on top of a warm, scented bath. Add candles! (Now that I've lost over 50 pounds, there's extra room in the tub!)

Dear OLofWL, I went back to W.W.™ last weekend. I guess that KICK in the rear helped! ~ Thanks, ALM, Chicago, IL
Dear ALM, As we know, the first step (or re-step) is always the hardest. Be sure to keep us posted on your progress. We're rooting for you! ~ OLof WL
