In Reply to: what are the 6 bad foods? - diet
Alcohol (at least for 30 days),soda (diet soda as well at first),transfats (read labels) in fried foods, particularly w/hydrogenated oils, white bread & rice (use 12 grain bread and brown rice), high-fat dairy (use 1% or zero milk). Food is a drug preventing you from living your best life. Food and overwork are the two most socially accepted addictions. Others such as alcohol, shopping, gambling, drugs, etc., same as food. Small meals, avoid too much at once. Watch the video on Spirituality 101 which is available free, transcript is free. Transcript on other topics available, such as sexual subjects, Suze Orman on money (transcript available). This is all free, all you have to do is join the website free. I have been following their advice for one week and feel so much better. We put everyone else on our "to do" list but US. Put yourself first. Try these free seminars, they are the best yet for me, I am truly helped by them. I was also addicted to "overwork." I have learned that my work does NOT define me, much as I would like to think so. Lots to learn here and think about. I'm so glad I had this "aha" experience. The spiritual workshop was absolutely wonderful, watched the whole thing and loved it. Downloaded Suze Orman's latest book for free.

Thanks for reading through my jumbled description SM
of this outright display of abuse and injustice. Did he ever think of walking away from the cat instead of beating him to death? It was revenge toward the girlfriend, pure and simple. Just another example of how a beautiful innocent animal had to pay the price. Thank you for commenting and overlooking my errors. I was literally in pain over what I had just heard.
No fan of either her or Oprah but having said that
I was so surprised when Rachael took on that type of show. She has several shows on Food NW and Oprah probably would have liked to have found her (as in Dr. Phil) but not so, too big a person in her own right before. Books, several shows on Food, well known before Oprah. Oprah played a point in putting her on that show, probably produces the newer show. I understand you are not really into Rachael but she was a talent and had already made it big longgggggggg before Oprah.
Oprah? What would anything she would say
?
No, no Oprah
Never said there was "nothing" either. It's just not what people think it is. Fairy tales are for children and heII was invented by poets, Dante to be specific.
BOO!!
Try Oprah.com
I missed what your issues are, but Oprah has a lot of great resources and seminar-type things on her site.
I know what you are saying. When it comes down to it, we are all alone. Even those who really care can only do so much.
I have been having a rough time pretty much for a couple of years. Sometimes you wonder what it's all about. Don't give up though, you just never know when something might change for the good!
I would think Dr. Phil & Oprah would have
covered these topics. They might even have that sort of information on their websites. Your mother might believe them over these men. Or undoubtedly Reader's Digest. If one of my parents were acting like this I'd seriously think they were getting something like Alzheimers, losing their good judgement.
it's now cuz Oprah is sponsoring her....BIG $$ now
x
She was also on Oprah yesterday
singing with Kelly Clarkson and Justin Limberlake, promoting her Duets with Rebba, I think that is what it is called, album. Think I will buy it. She is great. Also loved the sitcom, especially her with her ex and Barbara Jean. Very funny.
Just saw a commercial for Oprah about how
to talk to your kids about divorce. I think it said it will be on next Wednesday.
Oprah's BIG GIVE sm
I love that show. I think it is a great reality show that helps others. If you saw it last week do you think Oprah will help the family that was promised money for funeral costs and the guy did not come through for the family. I think so.
Oprah or Ellen?
Oprah today
Was that a total tearjerker today on her show with the puppy mills? I just recently found out about puppy mills as I was trying to adopt a cocker spaniel from a rescue that deals with cockers. I had to fill out a long application. They checked a lot of references, called my previous vet, previous groomer, etc. Then they had to do a home visit. The lady that did the home visit told me some very sad stories about a puppy mill where they went in at night and tried to rescue some dogs away from the place. She rescued one that only weighed 5 pounds that they used to breed. How sick are these places. She said that the Amish- are very well known for this. She told me of a story that a man through a alive dog in a Goodwill bin because he was done with the breeding process and thank God the next day a worker heard the poor thing crying. I rescued 2 cockers and could not be happier. I do not know where they came from but they are so loving. I think the government needs to get involved and shut these places down. They are breeding thousands of dogs and meanwhile we are killing hundreds a day all over the US. Does that make any sense? Please no one buy from a PET STORE. If you want a pet go to PETFINDER.COM and look up the breed, you want and you will see pictures of all kinds in all the US.
Oprah's show
I did watch it today...I thought I would have problems as I cannot watch most shows that show how animals are abused. I thought it was very informative and discrete. I will NEVER buy from a pet shop again although I got my buddy from a pet shop..went in for a hamster and came out with a 3 week old kitten in a cage by himself. He used the litter box right away with no problems. He is now 14 years old and is still not able to groom himself properly. He goes against his hair and I just laugh and tell him how handsome he is - even though his hair is sticking up with spit all over. He was not with his mom to learn. He has other problems as being very dependent and sucking on my shirt...again his mom was not there and I am his mom. He constantly "kneads" on me and I tell him it is Saturday and he does not have to make the donuts. All kidding aside, it is very sad how these babies are taken away from their mom so soon. It amazes me how money is SO important yet the babies and moms are put aside as money makers. I love my Sim but he has a lot a problems probably due to being taken away from his mom so soon. The next cat or dog I get will DEFINITELY be from a shelter, and a dog or cat that will be hard to place. Please everybody, the pups and kittens are easy to place, give a home to the ones who are blind, deaf, are HIV, etc., they are so lovable....seems they know they have problems and will give you the love as you give them!! ADOPT THE UNADOPTABLE!!! 
Well Oprah loved it! I want to see it.
Maybe tomorrow.
Oprah probably does not have to listen to all the
Indian speakers I have to day after day.
I saw that on Oprah...so simple yet powerful!...
Especially when that married couple were at a stand still and then watched The Secret. Now, they have passion again for each other and are so happy. Something as simple as being grateful for what you have, then better things will come. I want to check that movie out.
That's the big secret? I saw some of that Oprah and got bored.
I have always been grateful for what I have, and no better things are coming my way, I can assure you. Maybe it's some sort of brainwash...with hidden subliminal messages. LOL
Anybody wath The Secret on Oprah.
Any experiences with this. I am having a great time.
I watched it. Did you just watch Oprah, or...sm
Did you order the 'The Secret' DVD? I've been thinking about ordering it. What have you been doing that's fun? Care to share? 
I watched it on Oprah and then bought the CD
It's an interesting CD and I really like the theory behind it, which has been around forever if you think about it. What I didn't like was all the emphasis on material things, wealth, money, etc. To me it seemed that was the focus of the CD whereas on the show the panel focused on many other types of issues besides just getting wealthy.
Definately my choice would be Oprah!
; )
Oprah actually seems very "normal" for a billionaire,
Of course she has flaws and maybe some annoying personality traits, but it's all about intention imo, and I believe she is intending to change this world for the better, and she is succeeding! Everyone has a right to their opinion, but before throwing stones at such a great humanitarian, why not take a look at yourself and ask what you've done to better the world lately. I'm sure Oprah could name a few things off the top of her head!
She has stated numerous times that she has no interest in running for any type of political office, so don't worry your pretty little heads about it! If she ever ran I think she would have a good shot just because she lives her life pretty openly and doesn't seem to have anything to hide (she might even give too much personal info on her show!), and she seems to have a good heart and really wants to help those less fortunate. So many politicians scare me because they seem corrupt, and many are into shady business dealings. Many seem to be in it just for the money, which she already has plenty of! -end pro-Oprah rant (kam)
Please watch Oprah on Wednesday
She is doing a show about divorce and how it affects children. I think she'll have experts/psychologists on to talk about ways of explaining divorce to children to make it as least traumatic as possible. Oprah always seems to get the best experts on her show, and usually they have written books that you could read too. I think how you talk to your kids about the divorce has a huge impact, and some parents get so wrapped up in their own pain that they fail to really help the kids with their heartbreak, so I think it's great you are thinking about your son first thing. So many times the kids think it is their fault for some reason.
My personal opinion is that sometimes it is better to get divorced if you are miserable, because just as we want our kids to be happy, they want us to be happy too. But, I think you have to try with everything you have inside of you first to make the marriage work, so then you can leave knowing you did everything you could to try to save the relationship (unless it is abusive in any way). I would highly recommend watching Oprah on Wednesday though. It looks like it's going to be a very moving, informative hour.
Saw him perform on Oprah last year - sm
At least what he did there was believeable. For the mind tricks he said he pays more careful attention and is more perceptive than the average person. He watches for very, very subtle changes in breathing, body language, etc., for the mind tricks. I did see him escape from a straight jacket on Oprah. The camera never left him.
Not the OP, but I can't stand Oprah or Dr. Phil and
s
Oprah just had a special on the other woman....
and found it very interesting to hear from these women who had affairs with married men. Only one of the 4 women was still with a married man, while the others ended it. The psychologist on there asked her what was it in her childhood that brought her to this point in her life to feel like she didn't deserve better. You deserve better. Your child deserves better. His wife deserves better. They also said how the men tell you what you need to hear...they know what you need to hear, so he's not real. He could also be saying the same things to another woman at the same time, or maybe not, you never know. Please don't feel sad...get out now and meet the man of your dreams. He's out there waiting for you, but you're not available to him yet. You deserve more. Your child deserves more.
Oprah . . country or rock?

Oprah factory farming
After the success of her puppymill show, she is now doing a show today on Tuesday on the where you meat comes from, from the farm to your table, should be pretty interesting, if you care, watch.
Am ordering where Oprah gets her cakes
Hubs ordered on line the most delicious chocolate cake for my b'day, unbelievably good, said he heard Oprah say she got her favorite hummingbird cake from this place. Although on the expensive side, will get another for dinner along with turkey and dressing hubs will cook, I will cook probably half ham, he will cook the collards and whatever else we think of. We are having the family/friend dinner again this year so guess I ought to finalize my thoughts on this. I have ordered all gifts on line this year so at least have those, no tree up yet, no gifts wrapped, oh me, oh my!! At least hubs and I will both be off the day prior to Christmas Day this year so we can work together on all.
Don't care for Phil or Oprah, never watch them. nm
s
I so don't agree w/you...Oprah built a school in...
you think she would have built the school for girls somewhere NEAR DARFUR where they are beyond poor. The people in S. Africa have lots and lots of $$ and as a matter of fact, I read about Oprah's school there, that the kids there had their CELL phones taken away and that the rule is the parents cannot visit unless they get written permission from her school. KIDS WHO HAVE CELLPHONES go to her school....HOW POOR ARE THESE CHILDREN, really....
get real please...........
Check Oprah for dog food recipes
She had a repeat show on this week about dog training and dog food recipes. She also had an author on, referencing his book on wholesome foods for pets. I would check her website out for sure. I know we have been scared for our dogs after the recent pet food scare. Our vet previously had recommended feeding our dogs plain hamburger and rice. They love it, but we don't feed them that all the time.
Mary winkler on Oprah today
Would like to have a discussion on this and other's thoughts, especially after viewing the show or before either way. Very interested to see what she has to say and where are her parents? I would so not want my children with those freaky in-laws.
Bummer. I'm an Oprah dork - been recording
DVR=digital video recorder. It's like a TIVO. I love it. It costs $10 extra per month but is so worth it! I usually save up a lot of Oprah shows, and when I'm feeling depressed or just bored I watch a bunch of them in one night - makes me happy! Anyway, I'm sure you could watch the episode online if you want. I'll try to post a link.
THere is HELP!! I watched Oprah and feel hopeful
I also went out and bought the book from Dr. Northrup...and some Flax Seed Oil with Omega 3.....I almost cried watching the show, everything they talked about, symptom-wise, I have...
I could not find it on Oprah website today. Where is

I've never watched Oprah so I wouldn't know

sounds like the Oprah latest saga. LOL.
not worthy of acknowledging.
Anyone else doing Oprah's Best Life series w/diet? sm
I am trying to follow Dr. Bob Green's advice, he said first 30 days of his diet are free, however, others have said, you have to give your credit card # so they can start to bill you after the first 30 days, I refuse to do that. I have been discontinuing the 6 bad foods, however, and doing more of his suggestions. Also, I loved the spirituality 101 workshop and it gave me some insight. I am not weighing myself, notice a little difference in my waistline, not much, but I do feel better and am hoping I can stick to it. Anyone else doing it? Perhaps we can support each other. They said to avoid "sabotage." My husband means well, but I have to keep reminding him and saying "NO" to some things he offers me. He means well, doesn't want me to get sick, but I'm trying very hard to stick to it. I could lose about 15 lbs., but it is sloooow, although this is the way to go, used supplements in the past and it plops right back on you when you least expect it? Anyone else???
I agree - I would prefer Ariana Huffington to Oprah!!
Today's Oprah show is on the healthcare issue
Looks like an interesting show. Lisa Ling confronts some insurance companies on why they won't cover certain procedures, etc. It should be an interesting debate. What a mess our system is! One suggestion by a guest on the show is that all companies provide the same healthcare package, same rates, etc. Now that's a great idea!
Like Oprah giving poor people new cars
It never occurred to her that they couldn't afford to pay the income tax on them.
Snapfish free gift today on Oprah
Today on Oprah she announced that anyone that went into her website Oprah.com could get a free personalized picture album - with up to 20 digital pic upload by Sunday night. Looked it over quickl and is really neat. $30 value.
Animal lovers, be sure to watch/record Oprah today. sm
Lisa Ling is reporting on puppy mills. It looks like it will be a very powerful show. I know that 'dog people' have been trying for *years* to get Oprah to do a show on this, and I'm so glad she finally is. I desperately hope it will make a difference. The dogs in the mills have been suffering far too long. We need to put an end to puppy mills. Please, pass the word.
Wow, you sound like
someone with real compassion for animals - NOT.
I personally would rather have my tax money go for this cause as opposed to going to cover welfare and disability incomes of people who are perfectly capable of working and just choose not to because they can. But that's just my opinion.
You know what? If it were me, and I know this may sound sm
way off to some people, but I would treat this young boy with love! Invite him over, talk to him, show him that someone truly loves him. I would invite him to church and pray for him. I know, totally unconventional. He acts that way because of his parents. He needs good, godly role models in his life. I would try my best to be that person.
I think too many people try to throw away bad kids. It's such a shame. They can be rehabilitated. 11 isn't that old. And I am not saying that is your responsibility because it's not! I understand that. But if I lived there, that is what I would do and see how that works. That saying, "love makes the world go round," is because love can turn a bad situation around. Bad always reaps bad.
I know because just this past Wed. I kept 5 kids at my house (I have 3 of my own!) and we stayed outside and played until 9 at night. I live out in the country and have a lot of land, animals, a pool, etc. The kids I had over has a dad serving in Iraq and I just wanted to give their mom a break. They don't have a yard where they live. They played until they collapsed. I ordered pizza and just loved on them. I see their mom struggling with them and I just wanted them to have a place where they could let loose and have a great time. One of them was a little ornery, but I would talk to her and be sweet and I really think I brought the best out in her. They brought their collie with them to play too and he ended up staying! So, we also have a new dog and we love him!
Good luck to you. I know this probably hasn't helped you much at all, but try not to be mad at him.
You sound
like a real taker and nasty, changing dirty diapers on a conference table?? I would have been finished with you then also. Gross. I have been at time share meetings before but a good answer is NO! Did not have to resort to a free this or that and I know how to get a point across without being offensive.
you sound like me
I have read people use timers to get themselves away from the computer when reading email on their working days. For me, I keep talking to myself and saying "just do it" especially when I feel the urge I want to begin and don't want to delay getting started any longer. I was more energetic when I was a SE.
Here's the sound for ya ...sm
 Cat

How do you know who I am? You sound
xxx
That does sound a lot like us
I'm one of those tweeners size-wise; I'm not fat and not thin, wearing somewhere around a 10-12 jean, a 16 shirt, 5Ǝ", 170 pounds. But three children and breast-feeding have taken a toll, not to mention the varicose veins and a few randomly scattered keratoses. Like yours, mine claims (and acts) interested until it's actually bedtime, but then finds reasons not to come to bed. Like you also, the supposedly wanted advances have frequently been rejected (not outright, but more a 'not now' thing), so I've kinda quit putting myself out there, too. Fortunately, there are things that still say everything else is okay so I'm sticking it out, but with the price of batteries going up, we may have to find a better solution!
