By the 4th course, we were all feeling full, even though the portions were quite small. I think the complex flavors, and the good company helped satiate us, not to mention the short-lived euphoria of eating healthy. But add my vote to never giving up chocolates. Life's too short to give up such pleasures. I recently enjoyed a 7 course vegetarian dinner. By the 4th course, we were all feeling full, even though the portions were quite small.

However, the pressed refers to the manner in which the plate is made, literally the molten sand/silica/whatever is pressed into that shape...and oftentimes, you see seams, etc... Gosh, such chocoholics for readers! Wait till you see what I have lined up for the run-up to Valentine's!!! :) Ellen, yes, it could very well have been made during the depression, though I think that is a bit early for this piece…and hence would have been called Depression Glass.

I can almost taste it. I believe the plate is called 'Depression' glass. It was called that because it was made during the depression in the 1930s. It was produced as an inferior version of 'Carnival' glass =) I second joey...I will never give up carbs and chocolate but I'm very careful about eating in moderation =) Love the pork bbq!

Outcome, we all have different eating times or in my case, most of the time I eat out. A strict, healthy diet of course contributes to good physical well-being but I couldn't deprive myself. Moderation, active lifestyle(I don't go the gym) are my keys.I used to weigh 120 lbs, for 3 years now I enjoy my weight range of 98-100 lbs. I tried South Beach Diet which worked but IMO, not a good choice for a long time diet plan.
