NWR: But its about WEIGHT!

Anyone pick up the book SKINNY B I T * H?? SKINNY B I T * H

I just got it and have only read about two chapters. And i'm already pissed cuz it told me to give up coffee! i dont think i can!!! i am an ADDICT!!! i have been trying. I've gone from 8 cups a day (yea im a NUT) to about 3 cups a day now. but to give it up completely?? dont think i can handle that!

I'm willing to pass it along as soon as i'm done with it if anyone wants to read it.

i read it and i also have the second book Skinny B**** in the Kitch.
If you are only on chapter 2 you are in for a rude awakening....they also tell you to become a vegan...
that book is what started me towards vegetarianism.

i have it. That book is hilarious!

But it basically says that everything I love is wrong

lol OMG i cant live without MEAT!!!!! but i'll keep reading! maybe try to alter my eating habits as much as i can but....no meat?? i would rather give up velvet cake!

Oh, now I really want to read it. I can give up meat...

Do you have to give up pasta though? That I can't do, I can eat the wheat pasta but no pasta, that ain't happening.

Why does it say to give up coffee????

and i quote: lol

Coffee is for p u s * i e s. Caffeine can cause headaches, digestive problems, irritation of the stomach and bladder, peptic ulsers, diarrhea, constipation, fatigue, anxiety and depression. It raises stress hormone levels, inhibits important enzyme systems that are responsible for cleaning the body, and sensitizes nerve reception sites.


And a whole lot of other stuff lol

Wow. . . I'm glad I don't drink coffee (sorry. . . the caffeine makes me sick).

I wonder what else that crazy book will tell me I am doing wrong - I'm sure a whole lot!


And you know what. . . there are a lot fo other things that have caffeine - like CHOCOLATE, soda, tea, etc - are we supposed to give that stuff up cold turkey too?

I read that book too. Not only does it say to be a vegan, but you aren't supposed to cook your vegetables either as it reduces the vitamin content. Basically you're only allowed to eat raw veggies and drink water. I think if I were to follow that diet, I'd be skinny, but I'd also become a b*tch too because I'd be so irritated from not eating....

ive never understood the fascination some people have with coffee... i never did sh*t for me except make me jittery... And whats funny about what they say about it is caffeine actually helps make my headaches go away... i taek excedrine migaine and that contains caffeine...

i honestly enjoy coffee for the pure taste- in fact that is definitely the case since i drink decaf

Part of the definition of a Drug is altering chemical reactions in you body to create some kind of output

So it's not necessarily coffee but the caffeine part
and you said it yourself it's in your medication for headaches.....All I know is my boss quit caffeine a couple years ago just went cold turkey and for two months she was the nastiest person to be around, it was like she had symptoms of withdrawal!!
