Hey -- going off the "Fruit Diet" for 8 days in OSH I gained FIVE
pounds!

So how was the flight home? Did the weather cooperate? Did you hook
up with a co-pilot? (Ahem, so to speak...)

I *lost* 5 pounds. As for company, yup. United crew joined me. Based
in Denver, so it worked out well. Got home Tuesday just before lunch.

Never again. You midwesterners may call what was there vis 10 and
ceiling 12K, but for us westerners, no way! If I can't see
Pikes Peak from my front yard (it's 60 sm away), then I don't fly
in that direction!

I'm spoiled.

Well, see, John's photo makes you look almost svelte! It's all in the camera angle.

Give a person a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a person to
use the Internet and he won't bother you for weeks.

Jay -- tell me more about that fruit diet! It will also help with the
W&B in the airplane.....

You can eat all the apples, strawberries, bananas, cherries and grapes you
can stuff into yourself, all day long, for breakfast and lunch. Black
coffee and diet pop are allowed. The occasional flavored rice cake is
permitted, for that necessary crunch.

Then, eat a normal dinner. Anything you want. Beer, wine, dessert -- all
of it. And the pound melt away.

I'm back down to 179 this morning, having lost three pounds (of the five I
gained) in the 4 days I've been back.

It really is amazingly simple, and I'm never, ever hungry. (Although it's
not easy to eat this way on vacation, as Montblack will attest to. I didn't
eat a stitch of fruit the whole time I was in OSH, unless it was hidden in a
pastry! It's hard to find and keep fruit when you're eating out every
meal.)
