I'm the moderator for the Birmingham, AL group. It's really easy to start a group. Why not get one started for Anchorage? Just go to www.Freecycle.org and follow the instructions. After you get it started, there's an…

Yes, ottawabill, it is a wonderful community here, of generally intelligent and *usually* considerate people (sorry...not meant towards anyone in THIS thread). And, of course, it's always a good idea to pass on books, r…

I joined BookCrossing way back in September '02. The main appeal for me was the "message in a bottle" idea...that long after I'd given away a book, or left it on a park bench, I'd hear that someone found it. But it jus…

I was wondering whether anyone here had noticed the similarity between Bookcrossing and Freecycling, so I did a search, and yup, I found a thread. Freecycling does not replace giving to charities, but it does mean givin…

Even as I hit the "post" button, I regretted that last remark. I had a point to make, but I crossed over the line in making it. And I'm sorry.

You know, 4libros, of course I agree with you. But it's more than that. It's WHATEVER I decide is right FOR ME should not be challenged (repeatedly) by others. I always respect other people's personal experiences, but…

I rarely crave foods that aren't permitted. Sometimes I want a treat, but not something specific. I think it's the sense of indulgence that I miss.
For roughage, you might consider trying a Metamucil-type fiber pro…

Blundergirl, I put the wrong page number to refer you to this thread in regards to your film project. I figured this might be a more effective way to bring the subject back up!

The thread I was talking about was initiated by jfroebe. He asked, "What is the fictional book that made you change your outlook the most on life?" There were 17 responses, so you should be able to come up with some in…

Sounds like a neat project! I remember a thread from a few weeks ago, probably in Book Talk, where people discussed books that had a life-altering affect on them. That might be a good place to start--selecting the book…

He was only on the program for a couple of months, and to be honest I'm not sure he had it checked before he started Atkins. I just know that while he was on it, his cholesterol was checked and was over 300. So, actual…

I have a couple of cookbooks on my bookshelf that I'd like to send to someone else who is suffering from food allergies. We went through a nasty phase with my daughter, but thank God it has passed, and these books may n…

Hi FancyHorse! I'm actually surprised that your husband's cholesterol was lowered on the Atkins program. My husband's was raised. But I was not surprised. He had bacon every day and tons of beef. I use bacon in very…

I most definitely agree that exercising IS worth while. We may be disagreeing about diet programs in Chit Chat, but I don't think you'll get too many people disagreeing with THAT fact! The interesting thing about this …

What a great list of books! I can't wait to read Falling Backwards, and am eager to sample Chuck Palahnuik. Of course, I'm partial to Robert McCammon since he's a Birmingham author (and a darn nice guy). I'm excited a…

I have Bill Phillips' "Body for Life", which I'd be glad to pass on. (I'm not really sure whether this is considered a high protein program. It's very exercise intensive.) I also picked up Protein Power at Goodwill las…

Hmmm...not implying that *you* would do this, but wouldn't that be a great ice breaker for meeting someone new? If they were interested (in you, as well as the book), they could sign on, send a PM, and the rest...is his…
