Nice one, I've got to say I envy you the range of fast food outlets over your side of the pond I'd kill for a Taco Bell to open up near me, its a drag even trying to find a Burger King.

no, i didn't start (socially) until i was 21 (coincides with drinking and clubbing), and i didn't smoke that much (except during final exams when i have to stay awake all night studying ). all in all, it was around 6 years of on-and-off smoking.

and now i can't stand the smell though i can totally sympathize with those who do smoke.

there you have it, Mingster's Taco Bell diet.

of course i threw caution and exercise to the wind after i got married (why? i don't know) so 5 years later i'm back to my old "glory and guts", but i did manage to quit smoking (now for 10 months!!! yeah!)

Mingster forgot to mention that he smoked his cigarettes while on the porcelain pot. (j/k) Good job on the 10 smokeless months. I only do Taco Hell once a year to remind myself why I don't eat there. As far as losing weight--do like my friend--insert finger into throat --and say goodbye to the money you spent on your food or just drink coffee 24/7. Or do like me since I love food too much--eat anything and exercise. What exercise, you say!?! Yeah, exercise is considered driving MY S around--I burn a lot of calories from VTEC!
...and 1st and 2nd and 3rd and don't forget to breathe...

My local Taco Bell just recently stopped serving the Chili Cheese Burrito ... I'm crushed ...

Is this just a local thing, or are Chili Cheese Burritos gone nation-wide?

Have fun,
Derek
