From skipping breakfast to rationalizing why I should have that fourth slice of pizza, I've made more dieting mistakes than Carter has made liver pills.
And by using that liver pill analogy, I have just showed my age... and love of silly phrases. (OK, since you asked: I heard the phrase used by my Mom when I was a lad and it has stuck with me ever since. Oh, and I turned 45 a few months ago... ugh, my aging liver suddenly feels like it could use a pill.)
And while on the subject of silly phrases (stick with me folks), singer Paul Simon wrote the book (well, more the song) on this subject when he penned his hit "50 ways to Leave Your Lover." Hop on the bus Gus... Drop off the key Lee... Don't try to be coy Roy... You get the idea.
I'm here today, not to tell you how to leave your lover, but to advise you how to leave diet derailment behind as you travel down that road to lasting weight loss. So leave your liver -- and your lover -- at home and tune into this important lesson on the 50 Deadliest Dieting Mistakes. The short but on-the-mark "mistakes" are a small part of the Pocket Encyclopedia of Dieting & Weight Loss.
After I list the fearful 50, I will let you know how to get your copy of this info-packed publication... absolutely FREE!
