I was watching Animal Planet...of all things...and was reminded that drinking cold water causes your body to use energy (calories) to bring your internal body temperature back up to 98.6°. 12 calories, to be precise! If you drink three glasses of cold water a day, for a year, you will lose three pounds without changing your eating habits or exercise routine one bit! Imagine what it does when eating and moving about in a healthier manner!

You guys are doing great, and I love coming here. Just sayin.

Complete surrender should not just come at moments in which one faces overwhelming odds, but in the calm when it seems one is personally in complete control of one's life.
