I completely understand Marianne:) It's really up to us old timers to help the newbies out. And I understand the frustration about duplicate posts. Oh well....:) lol You're not alone in your frustration.:)

(((HUGS))) Marianne I used to feel this same way...until I tried searching for a thread I knew existed, but couldn't find it. I searched using key words, but it never came up. I have also tried searching for an answer to a question I had, and the threads that came up didn't really help much. I do agree some topics are getting annoying, but I just don't read them anymore.:) Take care and stay cool! I've been dying down here in southern AZ!

Sticky's would be a great addition here and it has been mentioned several times. So maybe someday...:) I totally understand your frustration Spirochete. I have taken several breaks from CC because I couldn't take it anymore, and somedays I just avoid some topics. I hope you stick around.:) I find it very difficult sometimes to read these types of threads. It is heartbreaking, and whenever I post in one, I am hoping maybe something I say will turn them around. Anyway, I do hope you will stick around.

I've seen it happen a few times, where a person is determined to eat too few calories, and with the help, support and encouragement of the wonderful people on this site, have turned around. They finally got it through their heads that eating too little was doing damage to their bodies. If some of you are tired of reading and responding to girlywhirly's post, maybe just not read them. Maybe just step back and let other people on this site, who are still willing to offer support, try to get through to her. Girlywhirly- I do think you need to talk to someone you trust about this though. And maybe Trustwomen has a good point. Sometimes counting calories just makes you become more obsessive, and for someone who is suffering from an ED, it's probably not the best thing. I would reach out to some of the people on this site who are recovering from ED's. There are threads in the Health forum. Good luck to you.
The Lounge	hair color	Jul 30 2007 00:46 (UTC)	4
Natural hair wigs can be very expensive. Since it's for Halloween, I would go with synthetic hair. Here's a website that you may find what you are looking for.:) Hope this helps! http://www.wigs.com/index.php?cPath=61_0_999& amp;filter_list=f_costume_styles

Weight Loss	Food. Just sort of a complaint.	Jul 13 2007 03:56 (UTC)	2
That happens to me sometimes too. I will lose my appetite when it's really hot outside. When that happens, I drink Ensure shakes to get my calories up a bit.:)
The Lounge	I love my husband, but...	Jul 13 2007 03:33 (UTC)	40
Some men are just clueless. He is probably just used to you doing everything, so he doesn't give it a second thought. One thing I have learned about my husband...never assume he is going to read my mind and just do something. I also never get angry and demand he do something. I instead asked him if he could please help me clear the table, do the dishes, etc. He's always happy to lend a hand when I ask him.:)
The Lounge	OK, I'm going to get implants, and I need help	Jul 13 2007 01:47 (UTC)	12
tina_b- If you do decide to go up a cup size or two, you will still need to wear a bra. Your breasts will be heavier, and if you don't wear a good, supportive bra, you will end up with stretch marks. Chances are, even with a supportive bra, you will still most likely end up with them if you decide to go bigger. I am a 34D, and I have always worn a supportive bra and I have stretch marks. Just something to think about.:)
The Lounge	Out of "Plus Sizes" onto Regular. Where do you shop?	Jul 07 2007 21:34 (UTC)	15
Apple Bottom Jeans are really cute, and made with a little extra room in the hips and butt. I know Macy's and Dillards (not sure if you have those stores in your area) carries them, and you will find them in the Jr's section.:)

I think you would look adorable with a short cut! Let us know what you decide:)
Weight Loss	Alli pills	Jul 05 2007 16:12 (UTC)	6
thread about Alli... http://www.calorie-count.com/forums/post/4436 8.html
Health & Support	Alli (diet drug) and fat consumption	Jul 04 2007 21:07 (UTC)	1
People who are taking Alli also should be concerned with the fact that not only is it keeping your body from absorbing the bad fats, but the good fats as well. I say just limit your fats to the healthier unsaturated types, and not go overboard on them, and you shouldn't need to use a drug like Alli. And like mindysmith said, there are no miracle pills.:)

The Lounge	Am I the only one that is annoyed by this?? Feel free to vent here!	Jul 03 2007 02:35 (UTC)	32
I can understand how it would be frustrating to listen to someone complain about their weight, but then do nothing about it....however.... Even though she is unhappy about her weight, she hasn't gotten to the point where she actually wants to act on it. Maybe someday she will, maybe she won't. Harsh words will not help her though. It may have the opposite effect. Maybe next time, offer something a little more constructive, or just shrug and say nothing at all. It's a health decision she has to make on her own. shrug Just my .2 cents worth.:)

The Lounge	I'm getting acrylic nails tomorrow, am also getting gym membership...	Jun 30 2007 19:15 (UTC)	2
I have acrylics and I love them, but you do have to go in every 2-3 weeks for fills. Once you decide to remove them, it will take at least 6 months for your natural nails to heal. If you do decide to get them, make sure the salon you go to does not use the product MMA. Here's a few links about MMA.:) http://www.wwwebserv.com/~dotinfo/qa/qa8.htm http://www.wwwebserv.com/~dotinfo/qa/qa6.htm
Weight Loss	Diet Pills?	Jun 30 2007 03:50 (UTC)	5
I agree with sweet_tart and birdy22, skip the diet pills and make a commentment to a healthier lifestyle. Balanced diet and exercise. Here's a link to a great thread on diet pills. http://www.calorie-count.com/forums/post/2064 8.html
