Move yep it's your health and life compaired to what

Our family trought us how to cook n eat. we teach our children.

I had to learn to read labels n to know how. then how to make a grocery list. and yes how to stick to list.
how to cook... and potion size that fits me. and calculate cal.'s in cal.'s out.

I love LA. La it's modles tall n 6inch heels n boobs n blond hair.
I like NY ( shop shop ) The people there like coatts. they will even wear in spring n summer, they have dark hair flat chest mainly flat shpes. they love their grease n salt n carbs.
Ca. love salads fish fruit.

Cancer is about the same. Communitys where there is quite a bit. but they neighbor state has very little.

I can tell where a person is from by their bone structure. shape of their face hands

So u see sometimes it is best to move a way.
It's your health n life

i wish i could move. but my wife is terminally ill and i am a caregiver for her as well as her parents.
not only am i fighting my own weight loss but also the whole darn city is against me.

Do you like Veg? I eat them all day long and no weight gain....

I love veggies. I use spices n herbs on pop corn n on baked French fries.
I always have salad every day. I have it plan with just low cal dressing. add anything. great way to create healthy meals with use of salad.

I also like sredded luttace n/r cabbage in jello

You are a great person to be a care worker.. it is very important that care workers take at least 1 day a week to care for their own health.

I told my man if he gets sick I will toss his butt in to adult assistance living place hell bells no Im not killing my self and robbing myself of my own life.
He also knows when he legs do finely give out he better already have agentcy that will have someone to help him wheel, Im not.
so do take time out to take care of yourself. don't give up on having your own full life.

Oh ya I also like fruit salads. I put fruit in my luttace salad.

You really are a great person.

Dear annwinnie: Please hang in for the sake of your wife & don't stress too much about the weight. God has a way of working out all that we need, at His time....when it's right. I'll be thinking of you. ((HUGS))

Your town is not alone on the obesity statistics. Apparently the whole of North America has issues and I'm sure the world over. Goes to show that we really need to keep learning how to live better, healthier. I know it's about enjoying life in the moment too, along with trying to be healthy.

Sometimes everything seems to hit the fan at once but we're still having to make the most of life in the process. I try to remember to have some humor along the way. Laughing sure seems to help a lot. This is sort of stupid/funny but just abouthad me in tears... maybe you'll enjoy it too.
