Chief and I are going out tonight, and so I was in my closet trying on clothes this morning. Nothing fits me anymore. This is so depressing to me, but it might also motivate me to do something about it. Maybe even a New Year's Resolution. More on this later.

I was in the asian grocery earlier this week looking at the green tea selection. I have been considering using it as a diet aid. I saw several brands labeled "Dieter's green tea", and I thought I had found what I was looking for. When I read the label, ALL of them contained laxatives (senna). In fact, I am not even sure they contained any green tea at all. I will just stick with regular green tea for now. I am not against dietary supplements, but I think it is hard to find one that is safe. I am open to suggestions.
