the olympics have been so exciting as far as swimming goes.  azul, i think crawl and freestyle are the exact same stroke and crawl is just the older name for freestyle.

when i was in taiwan it always felt like i was eating alot, my family would constantly stick things in my bowl, but some how i lost weight while i was there, there were several diff. things i noticed might be the cause.

A. they have smaller serving bowls

B.  we walked everywhere

C. they never had drinks with the meal, only afterward, and that made me eat less because i was focusing on how thirsty i was, and those cups are sooooo small, i felt dehydrated the whole time i was there

hahah thats my input
