i'm so sorry you had to spend that much for the book! i bought mine new too [many years ago] but i don't recall having to pay that much. i've been on the lookout for copies at bargain basement prices. i know several other members that do that as well. but, like you said, at least you can jot notes in the margins now.

Had plenty of highlighters here. But I did splurge and I bought me some almonds. I also got some L-cartanine. I will start taking it tomorrow after my weigh in. I also got some Carb Masters yogurt by Kroger. I only got three so I can try them one every three days or so to see if they cause a prob. only 3 carbs each.
