9:10 am
Aloyisius
bagels are more my speed
9:11 am
hurshy
my body has decided to encourage me in the right direction, since my metabolism has rather crapped out on me, by giving me heartburn if i eat too much or too many sweets
9:12 am
mael
I've been spoiled so far. I can eat pretty much what I want, but I'm helped by the fact that I don't really like to snack. The occasional breakfast donut is warranted :)
