It wasn't until Zon started having issues with hers that most of her female relatives fessed up to having had issues with theirs as well. Mostly after giving birth to their first child.

She not only feels better, she's been able to shed that baby weight plus a few pounds. She's almost "skinny" now. Luckily, I talked her into doing a hybrid step/weight aerobics workout. I keep joking with her that she has attained "flat belly" status. ;-)

I’ve never had trouble since the gall bladder was taken out, though the doctors say to avoid fats and lettuce (of all things) and I’ve never let any of it stop me. I eat salads and natural fats, and if I’m overweight it’s because I overeat.

When I was younger, I was always on the move so I stayed around 155. Since being sick, it’s harder to keep the weight off because I keep forgetting that I’m sedentary.

Good for Zon and her “flat belly” status! She ROCKS!!

Yep. She still won't go bikini shopping with me though. Oh well.

Zons 5' 8", so I feel she should be carrying a bit more weight than she is... But she's happy so I don't make a big issue of it.

So surprise her and get her a bikini. How can she not wear it? I’m 5’9” and for years, I was 145. Once I passed 35, I stayed around 155-157. These days, and at my age, I’ll be very happy when I reach 165 again!!

On a lighter note, I went into Saver’s for some flower pots (I love thrift stores!) and it just happened to be “senior day” so that if one was over 55, one got a 20% discount. The checker asked for my ID because she didn’t believe I was over 55! That was the very first time in my life that someone has questioned my age!!!

(I’m not sure I liked it.)

Vitamins can make your hair curly, according to OldTax-lady and the late Barbara Cartland.

Your family will be in my prayers. If the baby spews, it probably means she’s full. Wait a while and feed her again.

There’s lots of analysis about terrible diagoses when the baby does a spew, but basically, they just do. Some occasionally, some all the time. Just feed it again.

I’ve taken vitamins most of my life! (It was the only way I could get my kids to take them!) Go figger...

It will be good for my trip, eliminating a lot of fuss.

Meh... If I spent $50 on $1.25 worth of material... She’d kick me in the head. That, and I’d never get her to wear it anywhere.

If she wants to show off her shape to you and nobody else, that’s a good thing. And it’s free! Except for things like bubble bath, which go on markdown at the Walmart often.

I usually have to get mine cut as soon as my mother sees it! I’m letting it get shaggy now, because I’m cold, and also the Spanish Battleaxe likes it. But as soon as I get out doing yardwork in the spring, I’ll probably want to take it all off.

"... now I have curls....

Could this be because I’ve been reading sion’s hair-curling escapades overseas, or Bob’s hair-curling exploits in his books?"

You should have attended some of our dinner meetings. I get all my ideas from his exploits, but I'm not supposed to let LoM know.

Welcome!

Still alive despite punks in NY trying to make it otherwise with their pathetic driving.

"Der Prinz and I have been married 21 years today!"

Congratulations, and/or condolences as appropriate. You're only about seven years behind NicknamedSue and me.

We've been fortunate; we skipped having children and went directly to having two wonderful grandchildren, elsewhere described as Teen1 and Teen2.

Teen2 is the youngest, and she will officially no longer be a teenager on Saturday. (You'll note we chose Ronald Reagan's birthday.)
