13:28Thanks, Jim.
13:29Good.
13:30Tell us about your interest in dieting.
13:32Well, I recently...
13:33Just over the past year, I've lost 55 pounds.
13:3655 pounds.
13:37That's an accomplishment.
13:38How'd you do that?
13:39Well, I tried to limit my calories to 1,000 a day,
13:42and I stayed on a strict exercise program.
13:45And I learned a very important lesson.
13:48of this whole process, what was that?
13:49Well, I just learned that through hard work and dedication,
13:52you can achieve any goal you set for yourself.
13:54I think that's probably a truism to beat all truisms.
13:57Of course, in tic-tac-toe,
13:58if you concentrate on the categories
14:00and work hard at answering the questions,
14:01maybe you might accomplish a goal of winning a game.
14:04I hope so.
14:05So, I wish you luck.
