Then you can sit out there in the summer with some Lemonade listing to a Tigers game without worrying about the mosquitoes.Good Luck!

Yes you should easily shed a good portion of it but to shed all of it will be a lot harder and needs diet and exercise (not just one)This is evident also by the latest treasury bond sales - other countries are slowing down buying our debt which means rates (especially mortgage rates (will stay higher longer).

You are selling a lemon to someone who is going to grind it into lemonade at your expense.

I cleaned up my diet.

In my opinion its "lemons and lemonade." 

Its been a nightmare and now I am trying to make lemonade out of lemons.

Lemonade also offers Loss of Use as a percentage to personal property.  

Think of it like a business, a lemonade stand doesn't take much capital compared to starting a brewery.  

Ramen and even cereal “diets” (how is that a thing?)

Hmm... then this goes into another rabbit hole of handling this "lemonade out of lemons" which can also end poorly.
