Amy: So I remember you had a blog post a while ago about losing some weight, Dale. Is there like a particular diet that you find works well for you?
Dale: Dieting is basically, in my mind, ways of eating. Maybe portion control or reduction of carbs or sugars. I don’t really have a specific diet, I just like to always make sure I’m paying attention to my diet.
Amy: I think that’s true. I mean, in general, if you can just cut out a couple things or try not to overindulge, usually that can help you slim down.
Dale: They say portion control is the number one that will help you to slim down. And one of the things they always say is too much of a good thing is always a bad thing. So too much chocolate cake will turn into something.
Amy: Do you have a particular weakness that’s hard for you to cut out of your diet?
Dale: Ice cream.
Amy: Oh, I know.
Dale: I love ice cream.
Amy: But really, what’s the point of living without ice cream?
Dale: Especially when you put a chocolate sauce on top of it.
