Auntie Anxiety January 27, 2022 Share January 27, 2022 I should be watching the final two episodes of The Bureau on SundanceNow. It is fanfuckingtastic. Have to watch some of the episodes twice because they are chock full. Yet, here I am, being lulled into a false sense of 600 Lbs. mediocrity. 3 1 Link to comment

I spend a lot less. money and impulse buying is nil. LOVE it. I shopped for them for a short time. Wish I could have had you as a customer. Some people would lower the tip if stuff was out of stock as if it was my fault, and I did it when covid 1st hit. So there was a lot of stuff out. It sucked! Link to comment
Twopper January 27, 2022 Share January 27, 2022 They are making sausage in Switzerland or carrying wine and chestnuts up 400 steps on the Race. I switched over to Larry at the break and he still can’t lose much. Or rather won’t lose. He is boring. 2 Link to comment

I went to Trader Joe’s the other day and bought a lot of frozen dinners and had to clean out my freezer when I got home to make room for it all. I have to go to the office tomorrow so I'm planning a Target run on my way home. I need hot cocoa mix and will probably pick up some frozen dinners just because I have been lazy and feeling crappy lately and it's better than not eating... 2 Link to comment

It's been almost 2 years since I've been to a gym and I have given up on going back because I think exercising in a mask is ridiculous, so I just had an elliptical delivered and installed yesterday. Now I have basically everything I liked to use at home and I have no more excuses. I need to build stamina back up, for me that's the impact of the pandemic since I didn't gain any weight. But I definitely lost muscle and endurance... I can relate. I got a treadmill, but I got a knee injury….freak accident. Not sure if it needs rest or movement. Ive tried ice, heat, rest, stretching…….next step ortho. 😫 Edited January 27, 2022 by SunnyBeBe 2 Link to comment

Ok, maybe this is just an urban legend, but I've read that some deceased human mega-pounders have been sent to zoos where facilities are available for cremating the really big animals, apes, giraffes, ... hippos. 1 1 1 Link to comment
aliya January 27, 2022 Share January 27, 2022 3 minutes ago, sainte-chapelle said: I did the same. I have my elliptical and some light weights. Still trying to,work in the weights but working with heavier resistance on the elliptical 4 times a week. It is minus 17 now and too cold for walks When I retired, I looked around at gyms and using the university's gyms w/the retiree discount. However, the weather gets bad here and I knew there would be months which would include a lot of days when I wouldn't go on the road. I bought a Total Gym and really like it. I also have a stepper with a hand rail up in my office. My computer reminds me every 90 minutes to take a break and blanks out the screen. Sometimes I get on the stepper, sometimes I just walk around or do some light cleaning. My main concern is keeping stamina, carry my laundry & groceries, and being able to walk up and down my stairs as I get older. I'm not trying to be a crazy gym rat or anything. 5 Link to comment

If I turn the heat up so that it's warmer in here, it is too hot in the rest of the house. I use a space heater - but only when I am in the room. I'm a little freaky about them, even unplugging it when I leave for the evening. Still, it makes a difference. I do have a space heater. I actually do prefer to sleep in a cooler room, so I have flannel pjs and a down comforter. I'm cozy enough. But I saw that 2° on my phone and yikes! I'm just bitching for bitching's sake. 1 6 Link to comment

They just opened up some food service in the cafeteria this week (though I forgot to go down to get a tour...). It appears to be a glorified vending machine and mostly drinks and snacks like chips and stuff. I really wish they would reopen the gym.

That sucks, how rude! If there's ever an issue where I've been charged for something and didn't get it (which happens sometimes) I do report it so my account can be credited but I always include a note that I'm sure it was an oversight and that I hope the shopper won't experience any negative repercussions. 2 3 Link to comment
