O_a, some of it's a little woo woo but there are parts of the eating for your blood type that make lots of sense. Especially why some groups of people slide right into vegetarian lifestyle and some never feel healthy without meat in their diets.
I felt ok as a vegetarian, but I feel best on a low-carb style diet. I did not lose significant weight on a vegetarian diet while being very physically active; but I did loose some weight on a low-carb diet. Considering that this is more or less completely the opposite of what the blood type diet recommended for me, I never even bothered to try it. So I do tend to think it is utter bunk. I mean, it's a nice idea, and if it worked, I could see how it would be reasonable.
Have you seen it, GC? I would link to it, but I can't get to youtube at work, I don't think.
Seeing as it started out to be quite the Mondayish sort of Monday, I went ahead and took care of onerous tasks such as paying bills and throwing in some laundry and cleaning the guest room for Mom's arrival.
I can haz cookie?
Have you seen it, GC?
I have not had the, um, pleasure.
Here you go.

Lunch was summer squash and eggplant soup with smoked sausage. So, do I want Greek-style honey flavored yoghurt, or sugar free mint chocolate-chip ice cream for dessert?
Barb, I don't haz any cookies to share, but I could pour some really yummy yogurt through the interpipes for you.
Mmm... yogurt.
Although I might have some Stella Dora cookies in the pantry. Just remembered that.
what you should eat is based on what blood type you are
I've heard these kinds of diets are really popular in Japan, but I've never seen a shred of actual nutritional science to support them.
(What Teppy And Raq Said)
Annnnnd we may have had a watershed moment around the hacienda. I lost my temper at Nate this morning because, as usual, he hadn't bothered to scoop his cat's box in God knows how long and I couldn't walk through the laundry room without needing a gas mask. So I scooped it myself, resisting the temptation to leave the bag of waste on his bed.
To his credit, he didn't try to grovel or pout or apologize profusely-- just a "Sorry Mom, I screwed up."
Next thing I know, a few minutes later, he asks, "Mom, is the stuff in the dishwasher clean?" I answered yes, it was, figuring he was just asking because he needed something out of it. Next thing I know, I hear the unmistakable clinking of dishes being put away (which is one of my least favorite chores ever) and a few minutes later, he came in and said, "Mom, there are a couple of things I wasn't sure where they went on the counter, but I put everything else away."
Dude.
Without my asking.
I may need to go take a liedown...
