Didn't you get the memo? Love, not hate, conquers all!

It is very easy to judge people on their surface, but that rarely tells you the whole story. My dad used to have a colleague who was quite large. You might be tempted to think that was because he was over eating, while in fact he was hardly eating anything at all. His diet consisted of two slices of bread (one for breakfast, one for lunch), two pieces of fruit and a modest dinner. No snacks. No treats. Because every time he'd eat more he would immediately start putting on weight.

Imagine how much discipline is needed to restrict yourself to such a modest diet, when there's mouth watering foods on display everywhere and all the people around you are munching it all up, 'cause they don't get fat so easily.

I'd be glad to receive advice from such a person!
