Dear
1. Ramblings
Did you ever think of starting your own "weight loss community"?
One of my colleagues at work did. It's pretty easy: put a paper on the wall, where everyone can enter their name, their current weight and their target.
Below the paper is a scale, and once a week you have to step onto it :-(
Penalty for not reaching your goal (in about 6 months) is 10 Euro per Kilo (about 14 USD per 2lbs), this money will be used to go out and have fun with everyone who participated.
You won't believe it, but most of us started eating salad during lunch time (peer pressure is sooo effective) and people can already proudly show off results, including myself :-)

3. The Best Night's Sleep Ever - No Pills Required
If you're like most people with sleep problems, your
mind is simply overloaded with tension and strain by
the time your head hits the pillow.
You lie there trying to relax, yet you play the day's
events over and over in your mind. You dwell on money
problems. Kid problems. Marriage and relationship
problems. You can't shut off your brain and get to
sleep, no matter how hard you try ... and the frustration
mounts up.
But imagine if you could release the weight of the
world at bedtime. Automatically, too, so you don't even
give it a thought. And without taking a single pill,
either.
Well, that day is finally here...
And I don't want you to miss out.
Today, my friend Mike Brescia of Think Right Now
International has gathered together over 100 leading
authors and experts to show you breathtaking new ways
to ease your stress, calm your mind, enjoy greater
success - including the one, best way to get the
blissful night's sleep you deserve, night after night.
Go here now to find out what's going on:
Mike and the research team at Think Right Now have
just released a remarkable new program called "Tranquil
Sleep Now." But this isn't just another self-help book
or tape. It's so important - life-changing, really --
that over 100 other health and self-improvement experts
are helping them spread the word.
You see, "Tranquil Sleep Now" does what no other sleep
aid in the world can do: It corrects the root causes of
your sleeplessness, instead of just knocking you out
with brain-altering substances like drugs and herbal
supplements do.
This program has only been out a few weeks, yet Mike
has already received testimonials from dozens of people
whose sleep problems disappeared the very first night.
That's right; lifetime insomnia gone -- just like that.
It's THAT powerful.
By the way, "Tranquil Sleep Now" is NOT hypnosis or
one of those "sounds of nature" tapes. Instead, it
combines two proven mental conditioning techniques in a
unique audio format that has a remarkable track record
for success.
It breaks the chains of troubled sleep naturally by
targeting and transforming the self-defeating thoughts,
feelings, and beliefs that loom in your mind when you
go to bed.
So if you're sick and tired of waking up feeling like
you've been through an ultimate fighting match,
"Tranquil Sleep Now" guarantees a full night's sleep
every night.
No drugs. No herbs. No time investment. No ongoing costs.
You'll love it.
This program is like an audio knockout pill that trains
your mind to shut down on command so that you can fall
asleep anytime you want anywhere you want without any
strain or effort.
Take advantage of this now before this special is over.
