Fit44, I'll try to clarify. Using your example, the woman at the salon with the hair extensions, etc., was noticeable because she dressed and/or acted in a noticeable way. I have never been that type of person, I dress well but comfortably, do not wear a lot of makeup or trendy clothes, am not...

I am 55 and I definitely feel like I am becoming invisible. I do a moderate amount of upkeep and dressing up but no more than I ever have, but I feel unnoticed by men where previously they would usually give me an inspection of sorts, which used to bother me but now sometimes I miss. If this is...

Since your roommate is a guy, rather than taking the subtle "feminine" approach, you might just approach it the way another guy would. When he comes out of the bathroom say "DUDE! I don't even hear the sink water running after you flush!! Don't you even wash your hands after you go to the...

I've been a paralegal for over 30 years and have worked for a very large international firm, smaller firms, and sole practitioners. Here are my thoughts: 1. I am in California. Here, to work at a major law firm, they still almost always require both a college degree and a certificate from...

There are some iPhone and iPod apps by Andrew Johnson that I really love - stress reduction, deep sleep, antidote to depression, etc. - about a dozen in all, there might be one for healing, not sure. They are a combination of meditation techniques and hypnotic suggestions. You can download one -...

I share the environmental concerns. I also have some concern about the plastic cups - pouring hot water over plastic and then drinking the resulting brew day after day makes me a little worried. However I love my Keuring SOOOOO much that I still drink plenty of K-cup concoctions...

P57s - almost any of them. I am more interested in whether I can get through them without stopping (have not made it yet) than whether I enjoy them.

This reminds me of being at lunch one day and being seated next to 2 late-50s guys. Unlike your situation, these guys WERE talking to each other, about sports and some sort of mechanical equipment or something. After awhile, they had the following exchange: Guy A: SO how's the new...

Well, now we have people who are vilifying the vilifiers of the person who vilified the OP! LOL! And the OP's original question has just barely been addressed...

I am SO RELIEVED to read that other people are having memory issues, I'm 53, just starting to skip periods, my memory is HORRIBLE and in particular I can't remember the names of things - books, actors, movies, clients, common items, etc. It is really scary. I recently googled "menopause can't...

ImFiddy, "proof read" is incorrect. It is one word, "proofread." In addition, you should have inserted a comma after the first "parent." Shame on you!!! I assume you are not competent to care for small children since you made these errors...

I think when they say "liquid calories" leave the body wanting more food, it means drinks with calories in them - soft drinks, etc. I don't think water falls into the "liquid calories" category.

I have not had breast implantation but I just wanted to say I support anyone's decision to do so. Most of us do all kinds of things to improve our appearance - i.e., to change the way we look into something that is not our natural way of looking but instead to try to look more the way that is...

Zippity, thank you for the clarification! So as many have suspected, gaining/losing weight is not as simple as calories in/calories out.

This is interesting, and it doesn't surprise me. But I have a question - I couldn't tell from the article if the rats gained the extra weight while consuming the exact same number of calories as the control group rats (implying that HFCS messes up your metabolism somehow), or if the rats were...

I have the exact same problem, stiffness in my neck and shoulders and I feel like I can NEVER get comfy on a pillow. I have purchased so many different pillow, my husband says I spend more in pillows than exercise videos. The best pillow I have found is the memory foam one (I have bought a...

I completely agree with this. To me, snooping through a spouse's email, mail, voicemail, business records, pockets, closet, whatever, is nasty behavior, controlling and paranoid. Maybe the wife began having an affair because her husband had a history of invading her privacy, trying to...

Another vote for Moroccan oil. I put about a quarter's worth size into my damp hair after I shampoo. Since I've used it my hair has gotten longer (I'm trying to grow it out) and it looks much smoother and less frizzy. For me it works much better than any serum - the serums somehow make my...

Green tea is like wine - the quality can vary tremendously. Maybe go to the health food store and try to find the best quality (probably the most expensive) brand, or maybe go online and check out some reviews of the various brands. I used to hate green tea but then I discovered it was because...

I am curious. If it turned out that Amy had NOT had a baby recently, and had just been enjoying a few more calories, would most people think she should not be putting out another video becuase she's not a good role model or something? I am quite a bit larger than Amy even in her postpartum...
