What’s in your pizza?
What's in your pizza? No wonder I don't like pizza anymore. There is just a different taste to it, not like the pizza we ate growing up.

I've been known to use msg, or other … [Read more...] about What’s in your pizza?

I've been dieting for pretty much my whole life. I've had a weight problem for as far back as I can remember. No one else in my family had a weight problem - except an aunt and brother who tend to gain in their old age. When I was 8 the doctor put me on what were fondly called black beauties.
