Hi all! I too am a cradle catholic. My dad was a Jesuit for 10 years before he left the order. It was during Vatican 2 and he had a hard time with many of the changes coming out of Rome.

i do have hemorrhoids (thanks to my last pregnancy) and they can be pretty bad. from the color of the blood i'm pretty sure it is external - it's bright red - and it burns in the shower when the water is directly on it. i will try some ointment. should i apply it before i walk, or just every morning or every evening?

you may be like me where my body holds on to carbs and they in turn make me more hungry. trade some carbs in for some protein. a hard boiled egg in place of your granola bar or something. the other thing that helps is to exercise within 30 minutes of eating simple carbs. you can burn the calories more easily before they…
