Ever since I learned that drinking cold water after a meal is not advisable, I am now starting to drink warm water after every meal. Here's the reason why: The cold water we drink after a meal will solidify the oily stuff that we...

RosieS57 I agree. If more than us post it, perhaps others here will actually bookmark http://www.snopes.com and look things up rather than mindlessly passing it on without acknowledgement that it isn't true. One can hope that people that post here will, anyway....

My thoughts of the past few weeks have been very strange, tied up in both some very worldly matters (my family's health, money situations, etc) and some very otherworldly matters. A few weeks ago I felt a sudden compulsion to take...

This could be a sticky one, so I want to make sure no one takes this the wrong way. We're always saying immigrants, whether they're illegal or not, should learn English, which I agree with totally. There were hundreds of...

RosieS57 "by far more prosperous, militarily stronger, better governed, and healthier" The same was true of the other half of my ancestry, Keymandan. They were brought low by grubby tribes. The English you speak is a result of their growlly language, combined with...

RosieS57 Learning Spanish isn't accomodating 'them', Annie. It is becoming 'us'. If citizens of Los Estados Unidos (the United States) could broaden their perpectives to being Norte Americanos (North Americans)'we' would be all better off. Mexicans are "Americans"...

RosieS57 You can print this out for your doctors and other professionals: http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/1140836.aspx Without other treatments you can't get the FM under control -- diet and exercise, if you can, are only a small part of the picture. No one...

RosieS57 I'm 50 and have had a diagnosis of FM since 1991. I had my last child in 1995. During the pregnancy the FM was in remission but I had problems off and on with picking him up. He is rather well adjusted despite that. I long ago got over what people would...

RosieS57 PS - Surplus? There was one when W took over but since then there is the largest deficit ever due to the Iraq War. Which we are in because of being lied to, by the way. Reagan ran up the deficits, Clinton gave us the suplusses and W out did them both by...

RosieS57 Right, and avoiding that kind of person is better, if you can. It is easier not to have to deal with THEIR mess, if you know what I mean. :-)

RosieS57 Proving my point, Mooch. The kids are your job, myLot isn't. It is secondary to working with your kids on schoolwork. Life consists of the kids; it doesn't revolve around myLotting. Being as myLot is not a job, our fellow myLotters are being unreasonable...

RosieS57 It's that we as humans are certain we can fix things. If it wasn't the way it should be, we can fix it next time and it will all be better. In love, and in health, too, it often doesn't turn out that way. We unconsciously undermine ourselves because that is...

RosieS57 Like the father-in-law in this thread, a whole lot of doctors used to call Fibro AIYH (All In Your Head)and sent the FM'ers to a psychiatrist. One doctor even referred to Fibromyalgia in a medical journal as "middle aged coach potato woman" disease. The fight...
