    Anyone watching the Bachelorette?

    I was surprised she let Sean go too; especially since she told Sean that if she had a rose he would've received one when they were on their one-on-one date. I agree, Sean is not right for Deanna, but I thought she led him on a bit. Twilley was so much fun, I really felt bad for him with the...

    Allergic Reaction to Bactrim (Any Nurses/MDs out there?...

    Yes, Bactrim is a sulpha drug, I am also allergic to it (and found out the hard way). You should also give your pharmacist and doctor a "sulpha med" warning for the future.

    Apple Cider Vinegar

    ACV is a great cure-all! The only downside is it bad for teeth enamel so you should rinse after drinking. I typically mix 2 tablespoons organic, unfiltered (with the mother in it) ACV with 8 oz of water and drink quickly. I also use ACV tabs.

    Weight Loss Advice

    Sort of off topic, but I would also recommend your friend pick up a couple of magazines to help her. I think both the Weight Watchers and Looking Good Now magazines offer realistic role models, good food choices, as well as sample diet and exercise routines.

    Loestrin 24 FE experiences?

    I've been using it for 14+ years. I don't have any problems with it. And while I would like to blame my extra weight on the pill, I know it's really my sweet tooth to blame. :9

    Career ladies - what kind of suits do you buy?

    I second the recommendation for Ann Taylor and Ann Taylor Loft. Their pants come in three styles for waist - at the waist, slightly below the waist, and low waist. Great suits with styles that are classic and last for years.

    Foot problem - Don't read if your eating.

    I second the recomendation for Vicks Vaporub. Before going to bed, apply Vicks liberally and wear socks to bed. Also, if you apply to your heels you will also get silky, soft sandal ready feet within days! Cheap remedy and it works!
