The best advice

What’s the best advice you have ever received?

A few years ago a nutritionist said to me “do yourself a favor, if you’re craving something, don’t deprive yourself. If you want pizza, have pizza, but find a healthier option. Grab a lean cuisine pizza. Instead of suppressing it until you end up binging and eating a whole Pizza Hut pizza by yourself”
Now, actually trying to lose weight, these words stick in my head.

    My Mom always told me to find a love and make it a career. To be independent and not rely on a man. Then she told me to have a back up plan because life doesn’t always pan out the way we had hoped.
    That is all very very true. Your mom is a wise woman!

    Keep your ears open and your mouth shut. You'll learn a lot more that way, said my dad.

    Not sure if this was actually advice or a way of shutting me up as a child.
    Well it’s true! But I does sound like a very dad tool to use

    *kitten* or get off the pot.

    Don't *kitten* where you eat.

    *kitten* happens.

    If it smells like *kitten*, and it looks like *kitten*, it is *kitten*.

    Come to think of it, all the best advice I've been given involves the word *kitten*.

    😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

    They use a tabo, a communal bucket of water with a little hand bucket. You pour some water on your backside then use your hand to clean yourself. Oh did I mention most cr's don't have hot water or soap at the sink? It's no wonder theres so many billboards advertising immodium.

    Well then, I can see how bringing your own tp would be very helpful!
