Sad days, truly.
When I was a teenager it was even harder: Momma told me that girls will love me for who I am, and one day I’ll find the right girl for me, and that real beauty is on the inside.
I knew all that, but I didn’t want a girl with an “internal” sort of beauty. I wanted the shallow babes! I tried endless diets, acupuncture, and even – gosh forbid – exercise. But I still couldn’t get a date, the only woman that knew I existed was my mother.

To make a long story short, I made a big pile of mula in stock trading and now it seems women just can’t get enough of me. I laughed off diets – who needs them, anyway? Like my mother used to say, real beauty is on the inside.

That is, until Illumistream opened my eyes to the revolutionary Atkins Diet. I mean, when you think about it, caveman do seemed very thin in today’s standards. I’d previously assumed it had to do with the day-to-day struggles with the Velociraptors and all the running and hunting, silly me.

I’m a veggie, so I’m gonna pass on the steak for nice n’ juicy tofu meal. Besides, I ain’t no fatty – I’m just big boned.

But there is a limit, after all, and when dining out becomes a habit, you need to start taking some precautions, especially when working out isn’t your favorite hobby. That’s why People Jam’s Andrea Beaman and her advice on How To Order Dessert became one of my golden rules, because with that I learned how to convince my guilty friend to indulge herself after the low-carb-lettuce, and try out the dessert, taking the tension away from our table.

The rule is simple: order one healthy dessert, and an unhealthy-but-oh-so-yummy one. Berries and cheesecake, pears and tiramisu, apples and caramel pudding or cherries and chocolate mousse, it’s your pick. The important thing: make sure that those calories just provide you with a sweet memory.
