  1. I'm glad to know that - what do you think is the best product?
  2. Sub 10% BF will show in your face no matter how you achieve it.
  3. If you're a hiring authority, best to keep those thoughts to yourself.
  4. The thing I don't understand about makeup is why women think they look good when their foundation makes it look like they applied a thick coat of paint to their face.
  5. You have to really stay on top of the prescriptions - I have been up to as many 11-12 - I could leave the doc's office with a script nearly every time I see them. I'm down to 5 meds right now and I haven't seen a doc in 9 months.
  6. If you are committed to the idea that it's a medication, I can see that you wouldn't be comfortable with it. You might try on the idea that it's not a medication but a hormone.
  7. There's more to it than that. Testosterone is anti-inflammatory; it will increase your energy level; make your body more responsive to physical exercise so that it's easier to maintain a healthful body composition; it improves mood; sharpens your mental status, etc., etc.
  8. I think she's heroic - she has been a willing poster child for all the gyrations that someone with a chronic weight problem can experience in struggling to somehow live with themselves.
  9. They would do full-page ads in the Sunday supplement of the newspaper - personal testimonies about the heartache and misery of trying over and over to lose weight and failing - YET AGAIN, until they discoverd Ayds.
  10. And actually, one of the Kellogg brothers were originally affiliated with the guys in Dansville NY who developed the precursor, which they called "granula," to the flaked breakfast cereals that the Kelloggs were known for.
  11. correct - their resort was in Battle Creek Michigan. The upstate New York thing was another party inventing something other than corn flakes, showing that breakfast cereals go back to the mid-19th century. I have actually seen the resort in upstate New York - it was deserted and we walked through the woods to get a closer look at it.
  12. Are you positive? I have read that flaked breakfast cereals were invented in the mid-19th century as health foods to correct various digestive ailments. The Kellogg brothers were both 7th-day Adventist health nuts.
  13. A granola-like breakfast cereal was invented in the mid-19th century at a health resort in upstate New York. Will Keith Kellogg and his brother John Harvey Kellogg invented corn flakes in the late 19th century. He and his brother were both 7th Day Adventists and together founded the Battle Creek Sanitarium - a high-end health resort that espoused the lifestyle principles of the 7th day Adventist Church. They invented flaked breakfast cereals originally to serve to the patrons of their toney health resort as a treatment for various digestive problems.
  14. give me hard-boiled eggs, oatmeal and/or whole wheat toast, and a little bit of fruit.
  15. I just don't understand why somebody shouldn't eat a hot dog with a knife and fork if that's what they want to do. I wouldn't but that's just me.
  16. I look either for certifications or experience.
  17. Damn - that's amazing! Knowing what a mofo orthopedic surgeries are, I don't think I would undergo one for mostly cosmetic reasons.
  18. I have a colleague who practices lemon law in SoCal.
  19. I don't think it will - this is Kaiser, and they know exactly what they are doing WRT prescribing opiates. The 90 Norco were to cover my last couple of weeks preceding a surgery and then pain control post-op. All their policies are spelled out in black and white.
  20. Not long ago, my PC doc gave me a script for 90 Norco. The pharmacy didn't have it on hand and I had to wait a couple days for it.
  21. A couple years ago, I took cymbalta prior to a hip replacement because opioids are an absolute no-no before joint replacement surgery. I was surprised at how well it worked - norco would have been much better, but since it wasn't an option, I made do with the cymbalta.
  22. My father managed an old, old restaurant that had fabulous desserts. They had a mocha cake that knocked your socks off, wonderful napoleons and chocolate eclairs and they were famous for their chocolate cream pie. Great apple pie, pumpkin pie and custard pie. A while ago, I made a custard pie. My husband hadn't heard of them and he didn't think it sounded very good. He was shocked that something that sounded so bland tasted so good.
  23. In the 70s guests would say, "Look! I brought some Entenmanns." And I would think,"So?"
