Guest guest Report post Posted August 18, 2005 I can't eat as much as I used to either. If we are having a starter I try to find a small one so it doesn't fill me up, and leave some of it as well.

It takes so little to fill me up these days, that I was full after the salad bar and was disappointed I didn't have room for the stuff I ordered and would have to take it for later. > > heartwerk <heartwork@c...> wrote:It should be easy to have low-fat vegetarian -unless of course there > is cheese and cream in everything.
