The Walk-in Freezer at Reilly's Pub

[Stormy]

I hope the Lord likes to shop... because that is where I am going.

I need to get away where everthing is of no importance.

What better place than a mall?

 

[Wolseley]

I wish I could get away from it all by shopping.

Unfortunately, when I get the blues, I tend to deal with them by eating.

 

[Stormy]

Me too!

Who do you think ate up all your Dove bars?

 

[Wolseley]

LOL. But I don't eat chocolate---I'm allergic to it.

I eat other crud, like canned corned beef, and potato chips, and peanut butter, and hamburgers........

Which is why I'm now trying to Slim-Fast my way back to about 180 pounds.

Mixed results so far. Pray a novena for me.

I need a few sentences on Hegel and his view of history and its goal. this paper is driving me nuts!!!

anyone....anyone?

Oooh, corned beef.

I'm sort of half dieting right now. Mostly, I'm trying to cut down on food *spending*, but I'm also trying to exercise and perhaps lose a little weight. All of these at once, in fact. So, I cook my own food, eat slightly smaller amounts, and get exercise.

Mostly, I'm expecting to lose weight because I've stopped drinking pop - at 150 calories a can, 10 cans a day was probably affecting me.

Annoyingly, the weight loss isn't happening yet. I weighed myself, got a number, thought "hey, I sorta have to pee, maybe that'll help", went to the bathroom, came back... and was a pound heavier.

I just don't get it.

I had my dr appt yesterday. The good news is, on the diabetic diet, OVER THE HOLIDAYS, in one month I lost 6 ½ pounds.

The bad news: according to the labwork, I am diabetic.

Let the fun begin.



Peace and fingersticks,

Oh, no!

Here's my hard-won advice: Do not keep using insulin past the expiration date, and keep it refrigerated. Unrefrigerated, old, insulin was what killed my dad.

 

[VOW]

[bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse], seebs!

How TRAGIC! I'm so sorry for your loss.

I'm not on insulin, I've got a prescription for Glucophage. According to the EXCELLENT BOOK I bought about Type 2 Diabetes, Glucophage actually works as an appetite suppressant in some people. (that is not the original intention of the drug, it's supposed to lower blood sugar levels)

With my rotten luck, though, I'll probably be sleepwalking to 31 Flavors for 5-gallon tubs of ice cream....


Peace,

What I like is Ben & Jerry's frozen yogurt (especially the fudge brownie and the cookie dough kinds). They're not terribly bad for you (although I haven't checked the calories -- but I believe if you ate an entire container it would only be 20% of the saturated fat recommended for a day, and about the same or less cholesterol)

To Kern:

Quiet, or I'll lock you in the bathroom.

B&J ANYTHING is VERBOTEN. On the diabetic diet, I'd probably get to lick the spoon from B&J once a month.


Peace and hysterical sobbing,

What happened to the "Do You Know Her Thread"?

I'm so glad your diet is working. But I'm so sorry about the diabetes. But stick with your diet and exercise. Perhaps you can eventually control it with just diet. That's what we're hoping with my husband.

p.s. did you get my PM?

 

[VOW]

To Lynn:

I got your PM, and I answered it, Hon.

What do you understand now, and what do you need to know?

What kind of paper are you writing?

 

[jukesk9]

Ahhh, History.  The only subject in school that made me smile.  Have you tried this link?

TYVM I needed that.  Its nice to know sometimes that people do care. Especially since I really don't exactly fit in anywhere on this forum.
