What school system. I know one school system in So. Md. is not giving out sweets as rewards anymore. It is part of their policy for healthy children.
At the Charter school, the kids were rewarded with certificates and small toys for accomplishments. They even started a garden where they grew greens and were encouraged to try the greens.

Yes it was a widesweeping statement . I can not vouch for all schools.
The council had a scheme where I used to live rewarding children with badges if they walked to school.we walked anyway but I guess it encouraged others who did not. Not saying it is always possible as some parents may have had to get to work and drop children off on the way.


Dear St. Mary's School District,

Tell me why I live 0.71 miles from school yet my son still has a bus stop?

Gas is really expensive.

I wish my son was going to the Charter school.... isn't it a lottery?

No I am not humongous, I am just sick and tired of people trying to tell other people how to live! What gives anyone the right to say what is right in that respect and what is wrong. We all can't be super models!!
I'm not buying it. You're rather large, aren't you?

I know! Wheres the fiber?!
I stopped preaching about diets ever since I stopped working at a health food store. Nobody wants to hear it.

I started taking classes to become a raw chef but realized that nobody here would eat that way and there is no way I'd find a job in this county. And no its not just salads!
A girlfriend of mine is a raw vegan chef. She's awesome. I wish I had that kinda control. I do eat very well for the most part but I'd love to put down the breakfast meat (bacon :drool:). Any other meat I can go without completely and be happy about. I can't go without cheese or yogurt but most other dairy isn't a big deal.

Because parents get on the phone and ##### about why there precious has to walk to the bus stop. Mom wants front door service so she doesnt have to get her lazy ass out of her jamies and take care of her own kid. She can stand at the door and watch the kid stand out the curb.

Very impressive! I eat fish not above eating it raw, no red meat, no pork, very very little chicken and the only dairy I eat sparingly is yogurt. I wish I could take people, a week at a time, and (un)cook for them, they'd be hooked.

FYI everyone, check out this show, You Are What You Eat on BBC America (264 on Direct TV). BB666 turned me onto it. It comes on 2episodes M-F at 11, and 1130am and again at 4 and 430pm.

I grew up on complete crap. Most dinners that were made were frozen. Breakfast was pop tarts or Little Debbies. All my friends LOVED my house because it was all junk food all the time. It was pure grace that I didn't end up the same size everyone else in my family is. My mom spent $15K for a tummy tuck and breast reduction a couple years ago and I garuntee has gained most of it back.

I feel better when I eat better. Meat and big fatty meals make me feel like total crap. I love seafood for protein and raw fish rocks. I like just about all fruits and veggies, cooked and raw.

In My Opinion
I'm sorry, I am just very touchy on the subject. I have serious medical issues that prevent me from losing the weight that I have gained due to some medications I take. Not all people are fat because they eat too much and it just drives me crazy when people start stereo typing. :frown:

Again I'm sorry, I am normally a very kind, soft spoken person. The fat thing is a peeve of mine and it sends me into a tailspin every time. :flowers:
Im fat, but Im also happy with who I am, so F the rest of those skinny bastards that feel the need to point it out.
besides, when the food supply runs dry, I bet the will be wishing they had something to fall back on like we do.
