If you get a new Rx for bifocals someday - sm
try it with the really close-in vision part for looking down, like for reading small print on a medication bottle, etc., and the larger top field of vision prescribed for your usual computer-viewing distance. Then you can look normally at the monitor, and look down to do the teensy-weensy stuff.
(It's so annoying isn't it? I remember the good ol' days when I could read a road-map without glasses. Or the directions on a frozen dinner.) << No mas! >> :(

ben affleck will be a congressman someday
lots of people get involved in politics - famous, not so famous, et al.....if they care and they can handle it - why not? I don't like Ben Affleck as an actor, rather like him for how he speaks and handles himself politically these days.
After 13 years of marriage and 2 children I swore
the next time I moved would be in a pine box (although I plan on being cremataed and srpinkled). We made the mistake of having a 2 story house with no way to put a bedroom on the first floor. I still hope to never move, but some day it may be a must. I have terrible knees and am not sure if I can do the steps 20 years from now.
My grandparents swore by it for LOTS of things

My grandfather swore by his crossword puzzles.
Called it is brain food. He was as sharp as a tack right up until his finale at 97! As the saying goes.....use it or lose it. Scrabble is also good for seniors.
Typos!
Meant to say I never knew it restricted gabbing back and forth. Sorry. I hate when I do make mistakes!

Please forgive the typos . . .
Trying to help feed Baby Alive while typing. LOL Apparently Santa did a good thing this year.
Excuse the typos-been

sorry for some of the typos in this post. nm
oops
Excuse the typos sm
Oh boy, just read my post, up late last night watching Super Bowl, Pats fan here. I never heard of Bunco before, thanks for explaining. Women, don't understand why they can't be loyal, staying to myself.
As someone who has been 235.5 pounds and now to 115 pounds (sm)
There is no comparison. It feels gross to be fat. I beat myself up every night because I ate too much and "I'll do better tomorrow," which never happened except once in June of 2004 when it all changed for me.
Now that my weight is down to normal (I'm 5Ƌ" tall), people treat me differently. I feel much better. Clothes fit me pretty much right. (I have a little bit of excess skin but nothing I need removed.)
Being less than half of what I was is much, much better than being "plump."
I'm not afraid of any food, BTW. I can still out-eat most anyone at a buffet, but I choose not to do so anymore. I do eat what I want; I just had to change what I wanted. What is so wrong about eating more fiber and less meat anyway?
Pls excuse all the typos, it's been a long day! -nm

I lost 123 pounds (sm)
I am down to 112 pounds. All my skin, including my face skin, bounced back really well. I do have a little loose skin on my thighs but not so much that I can't wear shorts. My belly looks like I've been pregnant with big kids, and with my largest being 10 pounds, I earned my loose belly skin.
It might have made a difference that I did it "au naturale" without the surgery, so I am still absorbing my nutrients properly.
No, it looks fat as I am fat. I am trying to drop 70 pounds - sm
and dread the wrinkles that will most likely pop up; but I guess in order to get back to a healthy weight my face will have to pay the price. I will live with it.
I also had a picture up with me 35 pounds
heavier. it was not pretty. That was my motivation. by the way, I will walk 2 miles a day and have been doing so for 8 years to keep the poundage off.
Just a few pounds, but don't want to starve...
Hi all,
Would like to a lose a little weight, about 35 to 40 lbs. but do not want to starve myself (I have a sweet tooth) and do it healthy of course. Currently, I am eating smaller portions, watching what I eat, no soda, drinking more water and walking in the evenings. I had my baby four years ago and still look about six months pregnant when I look sideways in the mirror and a little extra on the hips and thighs. I would love to have my abs back at least!
Any suggestions? What works for you and/or what have you tried? TIA.
Somehow I lost 10 pounds.

My SIL had this and lost over 150 pounds. She...
really did not have any major problems after the surgery. However, it has been almost 2 years and in the past few months she has regained 35 pounds. If someone is eating to deal with emotional problems or just life in general, having the surgery does not make the emotional problems go away. They need to find another way to deal with them before the surgery in order for the surgery to work effectively. Just my opinion from watching my SIL. The docs need to deal more with WHY the patient is eating the way they do and work on changing eating habits before they have the surgery.
The 50 pounds after the hysterectomy? (sm)
I have gained a lot in the last 6 months and wonder if it is related to my hormonal issues. Did you lose weight after your hysterectomy?
And put on a few extra pounds?

I am 123 pounds down and have been for 3+ years
I went from 235.5 to 115. I did gain some weight in the middle of my weight loss, but I was baking a 9 pound 1 ounce baby during that time. I was at my prepregnancy weight within 3 days after delivery. The weight loss on WW was the best thing I've ever done for myself.
Good luck!
I heard that you should see Seven pounds
guess i'll skip it!
Thank goodness I did not try to see Seven Pounds
the other night and instead apparently chose a more adult themed movie. After my movie a woman came out from the Will Smith movie demanding to see a manager. She said loads of children in the theater totally acting out and their parents not controlling them.
Terrible typos inside message above, so sorry! (NM)

I've been on WW and lost 40 pounds
I have some more to go, but it's the only thing that has worked for me. It makes sense. It's about making good choices with your food and increasing your activity. I've gone off WW now and then and was able to hold my own, or if I gained weight, I could hop back on the points plan and get things gong again. I don't go to meetings, though. I do everything online. I have access to all the areas of the website, and I'm able to do it that way, but I think it's much slower thn going to actual meetings. I just don't have time in my schedule to go to meetings.
Drink water! Move! Watcch points, and you lose weight.
I got 5 pounds of chocolate candy
Hubby remembered one night...just 1 night...and can't remember when, that I was so hungry for a piece of chocolate, he gave me 5 pounds of chocolate for Christmas!!! I love chocolate but not that much!!!! I think he wants me to get fat.
I ate 2 pieces so far since Christmas. Hmmmmmmmmmm, think I'll go grab a piece now. It seems to be calling me.
Please excuse the typos - boy did it feel good to vent.

Yes, I stuck to it and lost 30 pounds in 3 months (sm)
You may have increased your salt intake this week and be retaining water? (lots of Weight Watchers dishes are high in sodium)or could you have PMS retention? Also if you started exercising a lot and are building some muscle, you could have lost fat and replaced the fat weight with muscle weight - which is great since muscle is much more compact and burns more calories. A great free website that you might like is 3fatchicks on a diet...not sure of the exact web address but it is very popular and if you Google it you should be able to find it. Don't give up!! I need to go back on it actually!! I have been off the wagon (or is it on the wagon? lol) for a while now. Good luck!!
Hard to recall, probabably 10-15 pounds -sm
in my first pregnancy, was borderline pre-eclamsia, BP was jumping all about at the end, lots of water weight. Daughter ended up being induced as they did not want to take any chances. Did not have that issue the 2nd time.
I was sore from bowling!
After playing it all night when we first got it, I woke up this next morning and my right shoulder was killing me! I mean, I lift weights regularly, and I don't even get as sore from that! I also love the tennis one, and I take the Wii Fitness test almost every day! I am getting Mario Galaxy and the Mario Olympic games next week, and I can't wait! I also have to recommend the Rayman Ravid Rabbids game as that has to be the FUNNIEST game I have ever seen! Shooting toilet plungers at crazy screaming bunnies! LOL!
It doesn't look sore, red or anything. Just
xx
Also about the teeth being sore...
Our orthodontists both told us that if OTC meds do not help your pain, they are too tight and you should call for a 2nd adjustment. Your teeth should not be so sore that you can't eat a regular diet. Who knows, yours might have a different policy or idea, but don't suffer through the pain without asking. I did and they finally told me that I shouldn't be and they don't know that unless the patient tells them.
I lost 77 pounds on WW a couple of years go. I agree with
meeting and learn from others new recipes or great low cal/low fat things at the store. On-line or at meetings you cant go wrong with WW IMO.
A sore loser? I saw it and I think she was truly shocked.

I had wondered if it was bec his joints are sore (sm)
That is interesting. He does seem arthritic these days but I thought it was just from him being so old. I had wondered if he was chewing his paw (the top of his paw, not the pad) because his joints hurt. I feel so bad for our poor pets who can't tell us what is wrong. I guess he will have to go to the vet (whether he likes it or not!)LOL
Ditto, I would think anyone with a cold sore - sm
would know not to kiss anyone, especially a newborn. Obviously the mother was not thinking, it was her baby, etc., unless she did not know she had it, and/or that it was herpes as all cold sores are and very contagious and spread by kissing, contact, etc. It is very sad the nursing staff did not say something to her prior, during, after the birth as this all could have been easily prevented.
Sore throat suggestions
I have chronic sinus problems and postnasal drip. Some suggestions I have are to use a cool mist humidifier at night, use saline nasal sprays (like Ayr or Ocean) at least twice a day, gargle with warm salt water (as far back into your throat as you can), and I make a drink with a cup of hot water, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon of honey. I also drink chicken broth or eat chicken noodle soup. That might be placebo, but I always feel better after warm chicken broth.
I have had a sore throat now for 2 days..sm
It feels like it may be starting to get better though. My husband had the same thing last week. My nose has ran a little too. I don't know. Must be a cold or something.
Well this isn't your everyday sore throat (sm)
It feels like severe strep, only it's neg for strep and it has been going on about 4 days now and shows no signs of getting any better. Nothing I am doing to try to treat it seems to help. I am now on zithromax, magic mouthways, chloraseptic, saltwater gargles, honey, cough drops, vitamin C and naprosyn, and still waking up through the night with my throat hurting :(
YIKES! I shoulda proofread before posting. Forgive all the typos and omissions!
