A chilled bottle of citrate of magnesium. It will clean out stuff you ate as a baby. (Do not take if you have cardiac problems or an electrolyte imbalance. Used for colon preps in hospitals everywhere).

I like stashing the computer in the book.

I am an RN. Nursing is a tough profession and the money is not as good as it should be for the amount of education we have and the amount of responsibility. That said, I love my profession. You have to love people at their worst and in times of crisis be able to help them and their families. You have to work when you are…

Can't think of anyone I would want to be than myself. I am a hot chick in a quiet sort of way. Took me years--decades to realize it. I might not look like it in my scrubs at work or after I've been diving, but I'm still a babe and always will be.

***Oh, I knew there would be some back wash about that comment. Did I say anything about the ammo being locked up separately or the trigger locks on the guns while they are locked up? Nooooo, I don't think I did. I didn't say I thought a gun safety course should be a requirement either. However, I think anybody who buys a…

I hate when I am told, "wow, you're great looking for an old chick", or "you look good for your age". Why can't I just look good? Why does it have to be qualified by mentioning my age? I ask you, what is wrong with being an old, hot chick? I don't even answer thoughtless people when they give me a left-handed compliment.

US Virgin Islands, latitude 18.

It is our constitutional right to bear arms, one that hasn't been taken away by our government...yet. I think if you are to have a gun in the house, there should be a safety course and learn how to shoot it and care for it. Then keep the gun in a gun safe and the ammunition locked up. There is also a trigger lock. My…

Your kitten met his weight goal oops, not fast enough. your kid is cute

Tongue in cheek. I was just really whining about the kind of day I had. No guilt associated with eating it at all. And thanks, I really do hope tomorrow is better and the news about the car doesn't make me scream out loud.

I work in an operating room and I had a family member tell me she was going to go in and watch the surgery. Um, No, I said to her. Oh yes, she insisted. She was going to go in. I told her she could take that up with the doctor. I really enjoyed escorting her to the waiting area while her loved one went in for their…

A dime and a set of keys,

Pulp Fiction. Twisted movie for sure, but plenty to dwell on each time I see it. Like why is that bandaid on the back of Marsellus Wallace's (Ving Rhames) neck? The Christmas Story. What a funny Christmas flick. Plus the kid looks like my brother-in-law Chuck. You'll shoot your eye out kid!

1. Whole Eggs. Yes. Either over easy or hard boiled 2. Fish Oil. 4 grams a day as supplement. Helps reduce cholesterol. 3. Wild Salmon. When I can. Not a local fish and very expensive here. 4. Berries. Yes. My favorite are blueberries. Also a good antioxidant 5. Yogurt. I buy the greek kind. Higher protein. Either plain or…

My progress has been very slow as well. I have been at it for 4 or 5 weeks now. Managed to lose 3 pounds. So in reality, I guess that is not so bad. My problem is exercise. I need to increase that and I am sure my weight will begin to go faster. Are you doing any exercising?

Your body is going to think you are starving and you will lose muscle mass. Drink protein shakes to keep your calories at 1300.

Welcome Rose. Be true to yourself and log your foods. I'll keep an eye out on you and you do the same for me. I need a kick start regarding exercise. Sending friend request now.

I might step on the scale twice a week, but I only log once a week. I am often disappointed because it seems like a weight gain. I think at first just once a week is best so you don't get discouraged. I weight in the morning before I eat and without clothes.

I live on an island where we drive in the left lane. The drivers here will drive in the middle of the road or use part of your lane. Roads are bad and full of pot holes, so the people in the low cars will go around them whether someone is coming the the other lane or not. They also will go around a different colored patch…

Good choice. I agree, I think about the foods I eat now. Sometimes I don't log until the end of the day, but no matter how busy my day and how tired I am, I will do it. I think if I stop logging foods, I will start eating too many sweets again.

Ah, the man's point of view. (from Kooldell) As for me, (woman's viewpoint who has been down the same road you are on), I am wondering why your former husband wants to continue disagreeing with you. Let your son go to his dad's and walk the dog later. Maybe the dad doesn't want the dog at his house. Maybe it would…

Yeah, I keep washing mine but they won't come off. :-)

I have a bikini--a serious commitment to artwork that encircles my hips and butt. Mine are all traditional Asian designs of birds and flowers and the characters for Joy and Pain and another for Strength. The designs represent longevity and feminine beauty. Some were placed when people I loved died (my mom, a favorite…

Well, our last case of the day came from the emergency room. An overweight kid had been constantly taunted by another kid. So today the overweight kid fought back and the nasty kid stabbed him repeatedly. I am sure he got tired of being called "the fat kid".. Nobody has the right to do that kind of harm on another.

Wow Rainbow, thank so much for sharing. It sounds like you had a very hard life, but you obviously are a survivor. I wish you the best in your life, not only with your weight loss goal. I am glad to know you made it, in spite of the hell your mom put you through with her poor choices.

Thank you. And for the guy with the dog who has the gun and won't take his medication, love your profile pic, Read my edited post, maybe you will understand because it was a really tough day in the operating room (where I work)

Good God there is too much information going on here. But what do I know? I'm just an old chick that still has it going on and has her own collection of tats (on private skin). Still, nip piercing (which I have done to others in the past) is something I think isn't information for a public forum. Private messages could do.…

I confess, yes I am one. I can't stand to hear "her and I went to the store"..."my kidses mom "--is that plural for kids? "that's a whole nuther story" ---ahem, I believe that is another whole story. "it was funner".... People don't even speak real words now. Drives me nuts, makes them look like uneducated dolts.

Hi, I am in your age group, so you know that our metabolism is not fair. I will be glad to check in and help keep both of us motivated. I will send you a friend request. Just reply then you can read my food diary and encourage me to have more exercises added to my daily log.

I'm not fat, but I have gained weight due to having thyroid disease and the general effects of aging. Metabolism screeches to a halt around age 50, compounded by having a sluggish thyroid. So I want to lose the extra pounds so stay healthy and look good in my clothes.
