After making so many Ted Kennedy burgers (famously described on the menu as “a plump, liberal amount of burger with cheddar cheese, mushrooms and French fries"), has Bartley decided it is time for him to be Ted Kennedy?

In addition to being honest and diligent about the diary, I am showing everything in my diet diary-down to the last morsel-to my wife. Stevens says it's all about accountability. You may have been thinking about eating that extra cookie, he says, "but you didn't want it to show up on the diary at the end of the day." Tonight, we are eating 6 oz.
