Are post counts off?

I just realized something -- earlier this week I was a few posts shy of 900 -- now I'm down to 866 (now 867 with this post). What gives?

Nothing unsusual that I'm aware of ... if anyone else thinks there's a problem with the post count, they should mention it in this thread too.

Yoda, we had to dock your pay a little for that 'vacation time' that you took off.

Ohhhh sure -- I need that pay to get back on weight

Since they're dockin my pay, someone send over some chips and dip, a full up beef and bean burrito with Xtra cheese, 16" deepdish pizza with sausage, mushrooms, pepperoni, onions, ham and pineapple from Gino's East in Chitown, and any 4 dishes from BD's Mongolian BBQ.

That should get me started on the road to recovery

I'm now convinced I was hospitalized because I was trying to loose weight. Never again mi amigo. I'm just going to eat -- I'll listen to my body and stop when I'm no longer hungry, but there will be no more dieting. Sensible eating, sure. Dieting -- NEVER!!!!

The doctors are now fairly sure I picked up that parasite from fruit I purchased at a local health food store. I won't be shopping there any longer either.

True enough, I have never believed in dieting either, but then again, I could stand to lose a few pounds as well. My biggest two problems being trying to peel my butt out of the chair and let go of that bottle of pop, I drink way too much of that stuff.

Agreed. I'm definitely a caffine addict -- But I have gotten down to one or two cans of CokaCola a day. Pretty good considering that used to be 1 two liter a day.

Kinda makes me angry -- I used to be a competative bodybuilder until I went back to school. Haven't seen the inside if a gym in years. It's actually a funny image -- high school computer geek that can truley kick your arse. Bodybuilding, black belt in akido and sambo ... then you get old. Don't think I could kick my way out of a paper sack now

I hear ya Craig. My dad worked for Pepsi for over 35 years, so I practically grew up on the stuff. I'm a 2 litre a day addict.

Hal - switch to Sierra Mist or something - cola will give you kidney stones. Been there done that.

According to the experts, dieting only slows down the metabolism ... while weight may very well be lost in the short term, it will soon be gained back rather quickly. [I say 'according to the experts' as I'm by no means an icon of ideal physical proportion, being just a tad short for my weight.]
Better yet is to exercise regularly.

You got that sick from food at a health food store. I think I'll stick to my burger and fries.
