I only drink organic milk these days, and not nearly as much as I use to.

I drink silk milk, have you looked into that? Low fat, but very low calorie, and lots of protein and calcium. Tastes a bit bland but I've grown to quite like it.

I like oatmeal, but it's hard to eat without adding sugar.

I was pretty much raised on oatmeal so I'm immune to the blandness myself. If you like to add brown sugar flavoring but don't like to up your sugar intake, Splenda makes and artificial brown sugar now. I'm not sure if it's new or what, but I just recently discovered it, and can vouch for it.

I found its good with resumes to just get to the point, and not bullshit around. Usually employers will have to look through heaps when a new job opens up, they don't want to have to read through a wall of text.

As someone who interviews a lot of people, this is very true.

That does make sense, but isn't seeing a half-blank resume also a little... not kosher?

I'm very much a Jack-of-All-Trades dude. If I take out irrelevant experience, my resume ends up with a lot of holes. (So, what did you do... for two years between colleges? Nothing related to how well I can perform as a copywriter.)


Also, ticked off that I just found out Wikipedia has a "Simple English" section (simple.wikipedia.org) -- As an information nerd: NNNNGGGH!

Raisins are a good way to sweeten it. I put the needed amount of water and add raisins. Once the water is boiling, I add the oatmeal and simmer until it's done. The raisins become plump and juicy.

Changing my diet and having boiled eggs for breakfast everyday is probably the best I'm I've ever done eating wise. Its nice to have something cooked (other than toast), it's easy as balls to cook and it keeps you full for a lot longer.

Well I wouldn't just write halfway down and leave it at that. Spread it out, make it fill up the whole page but it make it easy to read in easy to read chunks.

Apparently soy isn't too great. If you consume it enough, eventually your body wont be too pleased with it. In an effort to get more protein, I've been having a soy protein drink at work every day. Anyway, I'm not really concerned about the fat or calories, I'm more concerned with hormones and mad cow disease. That's why I drink organic milk. It tastes better too, go figure. But I was having problems with my sinuses, and milk doesn't help that situation.

Is Splenda the one that's the chemical that causes cancer? Or is that Equal? I always confuse them. I do know of an another sweetener that is suppose to be very good, I think it was called Stevia. Have you heard of it? I haven't tried it yet.

The problem is I hate raisins in most cases. I love cinnamon raisin bread though. Which, by the way, I've been having ezekiel cinnamon raisin b read. Toasted with butter, it's delicious. Ezekiel bread is pretty nasty if you don't toast it though.

I'm not entirely sure, but I use Truvia, which is Stevia. It's not a natural sweetener so I like it for that reason.

I'm not a big fan of raisins as well but I like them better when they're plump & juicy. You might want to try a few in your oatmeal and see if it makes a difference.

I looked it up and supposed both Splenda and Equal are "known" to cause cancer. It seems like everything "causes cancer" now a days. Also... don't you smoke cigs?
