    strip club opinion

    I've been to strip clubs with boyfriends past and present and it's really no big deal. I'm sure that's what your fiance thinks as well. Also realize that most strippers are bisexual. If there are women around, they seem more interested in them than their male companions. I had one boyfriend...

    Yes, I've heard that juicer is very good, but I'm not sure I want to spend that much right now. The $99 juicer in this article looks promising... http://www.discountjuicers.com/firstjuicer.html

    Yes, definitely a multidisc. Much more convenient and they're cheaply priced these days.

    Overwhelmed and unmotivated!

    What are you afraid of by *not* working out?? It's actually good to give yourself a few weeks off occasionally. You'll be able to regain your fitness level. I've done that many time before.

    sugar free vs fat free which is better?

    I eat very little packaged food. There is so much variety in fresh fruits and veggies that I don't feel the need to pick up something packaged.
