Our Weight: we can start tonight!

As teenagers, we want to look cute and be popular and liked. As we grow older, we like to be healthy. We think about calories. We buy clothes too large or too small because our weight is unpredictable. We diet. Oh, we diet! In the end, it is all about our health, both physical and mental. We get neurotic: we open the refrigerator. We feel unloved, we open it again. We search each shelf. We don't know what it is we are looking for. Could it be love? Food used to be love, way back when we could cry and get some. But tonight we could close that refrigerator door without grabbing anything at all, and we will have triumphed! Now we can run out of the kitchen! Instead of, "I'll start tomorrow," we can leave that kitchen in the dark, and start tonight!
