We went through this in May. It is hard, luckily we have other cats that knew there was a problem and tried to comfort us. We made the decision to put our kitty down as we already knew that the qualit of like that she was having was not good and was not going to e any better. As I said it is a tough decision to make.

Drive safe on yor trip home. You have had quite a week and the next won't be much better with Jon's arm. You will get back in your routine and things will start going the way they should.

Your oldest child is approaching 50

You're getting ready for your 50th class reunion.

Thank you for the question. Right now I am dealing with the same problems from different reasons. I very much appreciate the response that was given.

Nice to see you here. Both of my knees have been replaced. Before that was done I worked with a trainer dong things to get the whole body better shape with an eye on working for the best of the knees. I also had a pool availible. I can't say I swam, but when I was in it my legs were never still. I was always kicking dog…

Routine housework is routine. Heavy housework is exercise. Cleaning carpets, washing walls,moving furniture, that's exercise. You dont do it everyday unlless that is the job you earn your living at.

This was a constant with my mother-in-law. She always wanted to have all kinds of sauces and processed things. I would say that I preferred to eat clean,meaning as unprocessed as possible. Everyone that came in she would ask if they ate dirty food. I gave up trying to explain.

Unfortunately there is getting to be more of that kind of thing hapening in the work place. Take it higher if you can. Do what you can do and when things aren't done maybe someone will question why all isn't done. Just remember you are putting added stars in your crown everday.

It's mind over matter.Those clothes will fit again for a while. Get rid of the cookies, not by eating, and push forward. Find one thing that fits and makes you feel good. Don't let too small clothes feed your depression.

Not to eat the cake and icecream at my son's 40th birthday party. That is major for me

One that I hada lot of luckwith was a sit up on the ball. Sit on the ball, roll forward to where you are laying on the ball and do sit ups from that position. Untill you are pretty steady on it I would suggest staying close to something. I always did mine in the living room near the couch. Now bedroom near the bed..

If you don't get it eaten in a couple of days I would freeze it in portion size servings to use it at a later date. I really don't like to have the same thing day after day, but don't mind left overs if I can make them planned overs.

MFP mhs started over on my count, but it wasn't right to start with. This trip started in 2008. I was told I was borderline diabetic and needed to get my weight under control. I started with a personnel trainer and did very well until the summer of 2010 when my husband and decided we were needed to take care of his mother.…

I have seen you say that you couldn't do a run and even back out of one on the 4th. I think your son showed you that you can do whatever you need or want to do. Something good comes from most everything.

Don't know your age but, if you are beginning to have problems with your knees running can put a lot of strain on them. Running and jogging are more jarring.

That time was not wasted. You evidently had learned something about yourself or you wouldn't have maintained the way you did. That is far better than I think I would have done.

I have even done the whole bird. It was really good. Did not use a spit just set it on the rack using indirect heat.

I just ate lots of fresh veggies and berries and after reading all of these post I think I want to eat again.

Me too I love all of them

Never learned to apply it as my eyesight was so bad. I did manage to apply lipstick and don't always wear it. When I do it's only a gloss or natural color. I once worked with a man that always remarked when I wore it that it brightened my face. Still didn't wear it all the time.

Sometimes the struggle is a long one. During it we have all kinds of obstacles that we have to learn from. Just check off each thing you learn and keep going. Congrats on our upcoming marriage

In April I bought new clothes for vacation. By the time we went the pants were no longer tight. The pants I thought I could were comfortably all summer are not loose enough to have a problem keeping up.

I don't always read diaries. When I do it is to get an idea for different meals or I'm trying to figure out what I might be doing something wrong.

Those are the words we all hope to never hear. When they are said it does hit us in the gut. Your attitude is fantastic. Keep it. It will get you through this. The strongest people I know have dealt with Cancer and always had a smile on their face. My thoughts are with you.

These are funny, but I'm thinking there should be someone there to really show them how to use those things before they get hurt.

Chefs will tell you you eat with your eyes first. If the plate looks fuller you will feel fuller. If the food looks good it will taste better. That's the reason for using lots of variety in texture and color. When we eat the same thing day after day it gets boring and we try to find something that tastes better or at least…

67 and doing this for the umpteenth time. This is the last. If you want to friend me go right ahead. We do have different needs than those young ones.

I worked in the school cafeterias doing the late 80 and early 90. I watched the program go from full meals to only sandwiches, pizza and fries. I also noticed tht depending on what the economic level was in the building made a difference in the way the kids ate. Lower econ areas the kids ate more the full meals, high econ…

We were always told we were a Heinz 57. The only thing I don't thing we have is Asian, African and American Indian. But all of the rest is there is some portion. Mostly German, Irish, and English
