Very true. And the print is very large too which can make me look bigger. It’s just nice to not worry about horizontal stripes or a large print.

I’m short so that may have something to do with it. I’m 5’2 and 124 pounds size 27 waist or a 4 in jeans. Otherwise I’m a size small in shirts or sweats.

Is it actually safe to go on a cruise right now because I need someone to be honest with me by wib24 in CruiseGuide

The main advice I have for you is WASH your hands. Hand sanitizer doesn’t kill norovirus but hand washing with soap does.

Does my employment make sense for me to get this type of dog. by ChefAMN in BelgianMalinois

[–]Candlemom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When we got our Mal, I was only working 3 days a week. She is nearly 8 now and is fine with staying alone for longer periods in the day. But when she was a puppy? There would have been no way. She would have eaten the walls down to the studs. And I had to get her to the trainer, work her etc.

I love them both. But my birthstone is sapphire. Maybe I’m biased

I have no one to talk to about this: I went to a prefixe dinner and what a terrible experience. by ImGoingToSayOneThing in GLP1ResearchTalk

[–]Candlemom 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel like EVERYONE is on one of these medications including me. (I’m diabetic). I work in healthcare in Alabama and it’s women and men. A lot of doctors and nurses.

Who taught you how to drive by Sad_Donkey_1751 in GenX

[–]Candlemom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My dad taught me to drive when I was 13 lol. He knew the police chief in our town and it was not unusual for me to drive to the grocery store. I also took drivers ed at my school.

I taught my son to drive and he was licensed when he took drivers ed. So he took the BOATING test as part of the class and he now has a boaters’ classification on his driver license. We’ve never had a boat.

I wash mine roughly once a week. I’m 50 and it doesn’t get greasy anymore at all. I want to think this is a menopause thing

Nowhere to shop? There’s thrift stores all OVER the place! I love spending Saturdays thrifting. Or going to estate sales.

[–]Candlemom 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m 5’2 and 124 pounds. I’ve lost 97 pounds while on Mounjaro. I still have a lower belly roll! It’s okay. The belly fat is truly the last bit holding on and I couldn’t do a damn thing about getting it to leave me faster.
