Oh, I know, I bought my first bag yesterday. I don't look at the nutrition label. Ignorance is bliss and all that. What I did look at was the weight, because the bag didn't look quite as big as last year. Sure enough, a bag that used to be 900 and some odd grams (943?) is now 875. And more expensive. So we have…

I'm in that minority with you then. I can't stand Oreos. I've even tried some of the fancy special limited edition flavour varieties and they all taste like weird gritty overly sweetened cardboard. And if you all had any idea of how much sugar I eat, you'd wonder how I managed to find anything overly sweetened. But Oreos…

IV fluids and whatever else they pumped into you. I needed emergency surgery in early 2021. Didn't know I would be getting surgery so I didn't remove my rings before heading to Emergency. They asked me to take them off before the op but there was no way those rings, which are normally pretty loose, were coming off my…

Awww, I want to give you a big virtual hug! That makes me so sad. Did we have the same mother? I got "Well you're not pretty but if you worked at it you could have a nice personality." Incidentally, her idea of a nice personality was one like her own, a complete people-pleasing doormat totally submissive to men. I was "too…

Oh. My. Lord. Any excuse to be an exhibitionist, eh? Although I'd potentially fall for an offer of a corgi puppy pic so no judgement here! [scammer dudes: do NOT FR me and pretend to be corgi owners!] I've never had any identifying photo on here. It's mostly the alpaca, think I might have had a bicep up for a wee bit. So I…

No graphic as I was scrolling the Gram and neglected to screenshot but I got an ad for (I think) fancy marathon runner shoes. I guess these ones are designed with a bigger? better? toe box because the main message seemed to be that they were toe-sparing in some way. So we had a handsome young blond surfer dude narrating,…

Okay. I need to know. Was this feat accomplished entirely in one sitting (pun not intended)? How does she know it was 6 kg? Did she weigh the poop itself or weigh herself before and after? Does the average household plumbing deal with that degree of output adequately? I'm assuming a visual inspection was sufficient to…

Ahem. You first! :smiley:

I don't even see any posts in some of the older/longer threads, just a double row of page numbers that you normally find at the bottom of each page. Same issue on both phone and laptop however I'm using the browser version on both so maybe a Chrome thing? Yeah. We don't need the newsfeed because we've got the forums. Yeah.

Eight 25L bags of soil. Because my dogs have apparently eaten the six bags I've already distributed around the yard.

The Premium version adds no value to my use of MFP but I'd pay a fee to keep my Newsfeed. And it was an opportunity to hit me with at least one ad so there's potential for revenue there.

Same. Ironically, I only learned of the Newsfeed's impending demise from a friend's post on.... wait for it.... my Newsfeed. Irony #2 is that there are a few people on this thread who I probably should have friended long ago but, gee, there isn't any point in doing so now.

Well said! I have a small, carefully selected group of friends on here and few have any connection to one another. The newsfeed is one of the features I use daily and enjoy seeing updates of what my friends are doing. I rarely have time for the boards these days. I was hoping for enhancements to the feed so I could finally…

A 3 lb bag of lemons. I'd have preferred just a couple but they had no loose bulk ones. I don't even like lemon. They're for my dog. She's an incorrigible counter surfer who has managed to snag a ton of stuff when I'm out of the house, even though nothing is left on the front 2/3 of any of the counters. She's also managed…

Passed up a new purse yesterday at lunch. Leather. All kinds of compartments and pockets to keep my crap organized. Big enough to throw in more crap, even my tablet, which would come in handy next month when I travel. (Then my current purse annoyed me again today, like it has ever since I started using it, so I went back…

I started with a very basic fitbit, the flex, then upgraded to the first Charge. Went through a few more upgrades with Charges over the years, my last one was the 5. It stopped giving me movement reminders and goal achievement notifications (which is half the fun of the darned things) within warranty so I got a…

This. As COGypsy says, fillers. Or fat injections. Those seem to have a longer lifespan than fillers which break down quite quickly and need to be redone. However, fat injections are going to be fairly pricey since first they harvest the fat from other areas of the body using liposuction.

4 boxes of K cups. Which are still sitting in my truck. They probably need to come indoors.

Hysterectomy (uterus only) age 33 and I did notice that the symptoms I had associated with PMS gradually diminished afterwards. Prior to that I could totally relate to the wallpaper paste post... I found myself scrounging the cupboards for anything and everything to fill the void... stale crackers, tubs of frosting,…

Tomorrow is my last day of work till January (that's definitely not the irk part). I am trying to do all my coworker gifts/cards to bring in tomorrow, and my dad keeps texting me. Worse, he keeps texting me to test his texting because some of them are failing, and he just doesn't grasp that sometimes technology lets you…

I hear Wendys has pumpkin spice frosties. Check to make sure this is also a Canada thing and not just US. It is. Stop by Wendys at lunch. Note that their vegetarian options suck so the only reason I go there is for a frosty and that's rare. "We don't have pumpkin spice beverages at this location".

I don't sync my Fitbit and manually log my exercise but I generally work on a TDEE method from my Fitbit's daily total, which seems to be pretty accurate for me. I am not trying to lose weight, however (currently need to gain). I'll deviate from the TDEE approach when I've had a high-exercise day like several hours of snow…

Yes, I would tell. I'd want the SO to know how little loyalty his friend had, and why I'd want to avoid that person's company in future. With the caveat that it would have to be very, very blatant "hitting on" because I'm pretty oblivious to that sort of thing and I'd just think that the friend was trying to be nice to me…

That's my first thought too. All those rampant hormones. Although female dogs are kinda notorious for having difficulty getting along with one another, more so than male/female or male/male. A couple of the dog schools here have canine behaviour specialists who will do private consultations and I'd hire one asap. That's…

From USADA.org: Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators (SARMs) are a class of therapeutic compounds that have similar anabolic properties to anabolic steroids, but with reduced androgenic (producing male characteristics) properties. As an example, the androgen receptor is activated by binding androgens, such as…

I'd LOVE to see this. Not sure why every other manufactured food and beverage is required to have a nutrition label, including restaurant meals, but alcohol products are exempt (I'm in Canada). My father is an alcoholic. He is also obsessive about nutrition, particularly sodium and sugar content. When he was hospitalized…

My own carelessness yet again. So I have a puppy that is chewing everything except the 12 chew toys lying around for that purpose. She particularly likes wood. I have some of that deterrent bitter spray left over from the last puppy so I've been anointing all her chew spots with little effect. She started in on the room…

Sorry to hear this. My deepest sympathies for your loss. :'(

Same experience as a non-drinker. I've actually been told that I wasn't invited to certain events because "well, you don't drink..." like "what's the point in inviting you?" Note that I am not judgey or preachy about drinking but there are some women in the circle who are very hard drinkers and I think they fear being…

This! DNA evidence has also been used to exonerate criminals who were falsely convicted. My only experience is with buying one of those ancestry test kits, mainly for some health markers that it would test for. All they knew about me is that I am a middle-aged woman living in Canada and the result was my ancestry is 99.8%…
