Hey everyone! This was the best day I've had in a while. I found Bounty towels at Target and I got my job back! I return to the copy desk next week!

I say this as a very light skinned mix race woman >60 - there is a long standing history of color discrimination amongst blacks. My great aunts, who were fair skinned, often said that we should mar

I'm also a little under 60, mixed, and beige with rust colored freckles. Dark, even-toned skin seemed like a good thing to me. Or light, even toned skin. Or glowing white, even toned skin.  Or not fre

Have the reveals been interesting, or just more lame ex-pro athletes, unfunny comedians, and thousand-year-old sitcom 'stars'?

I will definitely get back to you about that on the M600PL Small Talk forum since I love this show so much. Yes tee hee, it's been a mixture of all of the above and then some but I found those all of the above performers to be very entertaining and a lot of fun!😊

Why does this sound like Dr. Now's entire philosophy of bariatric surgery?    His speech sounds like a bye-bye.     I wonder is this is the last new poundticipant show for the season?   That would explain Dr. Now's long winded explanation of everything about weight loss.  Has he ever gone on this long explaining his weight loss theories before?   

Her camo dress for month 7 sucks.    That is hideous.   I hope brother Lamar takes  it out in the yard and burns it.

The preview in the corner must be for the WATN David/Benji, and Erica. 

Poor little Kenlyn, I hope she's OK.

Speaking of TLC characters: Does anyone watch Dr. Mike on YouTube? He did a compilation video asking 100 doctors questions about coronavirus and Dr. Pimple Popper was in there.

I am so effing sick of every tv doctor weighing in on coronavirus. Are they epidemiologists? No. Dr Oz needs to shut up

A KFC two-piece and cole slaw is NOT on the diet.

drat,  would people please quit referring to fried chicken.  I don't generally care for cole slaw (I keep a mental list of the few places we eat that has cole slaw I like).  I am about to get in the car and head to the nearest chicken drive thru.  I haven't had fried chicken in months.   I wonder if it is open past 10.

I swear I was paying attention and then I swear I heard Dr. Now say something "high thread count" and then all I could think of was buying new sheets.

"High thread count" is from 90-Day.  That's Ed's requirement for his delicate creeper skin. Your brain must have had a record skip.  Somehow the TLC shows are bleeding together.

My antipsychotics have made me really balloon and Ive gained around 40 pounds on it. Im on other meds that are supposed to help. Losing weight is just really hard and I often forget about whats going and and its hard for me to get energy to actually cook and prepare a meal.

Saw the show on PBS last week that discussed overweight people. Had some of the former Biggest Losers that had gained all their weight back. They ran tests on them and found out they were leptin resistant. Something about leptin makes people feel satiated. These people started injecting leptin, and they were able to lose weight without feeling hungry. It was a very interesting show. I would highly recommend it. It gave me a new perspective on some of the people we have seen here.

if you watched 90 day this would make you think of Big Edd, his mayo hair, and his mailing 1000+ thread count sheets to a shack in the Philippines.

Oh, ye sheets of 3,000 thread count that miraculously  never made it the house with the leaky roof?  Sold as soon as the sheets arrived!

I get this, sort of. 

When I went on Keto, I lost nothing for 4 munts. I gave up my beloved cakes and ice cream, no Good n Plenty or Hot Tamales candy, no dinners of fresh bread and sweet butter with a little parmesean sprinkled on each slice. Meat. Eggs. Tuna. Turkey. Salad. Certain, sad vegetables. No potatoes, no carrots. Riding a bicycle 8 miles a day. A real bicycle, to and from work. I. Lost. Nothing. It took my body that long to adjust. 

Month 5, I began to lose. Finally. Still, while my Keto pals were celebrating 40 lbs, I was jusssst getting to 10. It took a year to lose that 40, and 10 came back in less than a month of couching and "having a little" in quarantine.  My wild cheat nights consisted of having a single serving can of baked beans with my grilled chicken or having a baked potato instead of brussels sprouts. 

I'm back on the wagon, but I really, really get feeling like I am eating less that everyone around me, and still not losing. 

What has worked best for me was eating my main meal earlier in the day and something light for dinner, then moving into one meal a day (OMAD). I thought it was going to be hard, but it isn't too bad. Plus, at least for the program I'm doing, it's one MEAL, so you can open your window with yogurt or whatever, and close it later with something small. On Good Friday, our church leadership asked us to fast for the pandemic (get a cure, support health workers, etc.). No problem. I can guarantee you if someone told me to fast 6 months ago, I would have said no way. My weight loss is steady at around 1-3 lbs a week. I tried keto, doing veg keto at first, then regular, but I feel much better eating what I want, such as a potato, during my 1 meal. I don't go crazy w/the carbs (diabetic), but it's nice not to feel guilty if I have a potato.

If you have a link Id love to see that. Were there any long term effects for them?
