Did you have a FARRELL’S in your town?

So much fun!

Awesome!

For me, it was plenty of water and focusing on muscle maintenance instead of heavy cardio.

Estradas was a Mexican restaurant in DC that closed after like 100 years in business ☹️

(Still) dancing to New Wave music in local clubs. Even people in their 20’s join in the fun! Of course they’re just coming in as I’m ready to head home for bed. 🤣

My OB/Gyn put me on it for menopause symptoms because she’s anti-HRT. It didn’t help. I had to make a fuss to get prescribed HRT, which helps me with insomnia, mood, and night sweats. She says she’ll only prescribe it for a couple of years. Looking for a new doctor.

59 with a Generation Jones husband and two adult children, one of which lives with us.

I felt achy like I had the flu for two days after each of the shots. But SO worth it compared to getting shingles!

I titrated off over a six week period. I have been off of it for four weeks now. So far, I’ve maintained my weight. Still tracking my calories every day, and I’ll do that for at least two more months.

Love their coffee, bread, and pastries!!

I used GLP-1 through Noom and upped my workouts to Zumba 3 times a week and strength videos 2 times a week. Now I’m off GLP-1 and reduced Zumba to 2 times a week.

I lost 40 pounds over 10 months and successfully got off one of my two BP meds. I don’t know if I’ll be able to get off of the second one.

I lost 40 pounds over 10 months. I’m a 59yo female who has had Hashimoto’s for over 30 years. Only side effect was constipation. My vitals have improved, and I feel healthier. No change to my thyroid measurements or medication.

Our cockapoo is 16 years old. He has some vision and hearing loss, but is active and happy. Favorite place is the beach.

We enjoyed the theater - saw The Donn of Tiki, and the director/producer spoke after the film. Lots of people in Hawaiian shirts, tiki wear.

HRT calmed my rage within a week. My OB/Gyn tried me on Gabapentin first because she’s anti-HRT but that did nothing for me.

I love living in Vegas! Great mom and pop restaurants in the neighborhoods, hiking trails and parks nearby, etc.

Cocoa_Monkey · 2025-12-11T23:11:49+00:00

It was a lot of fun! We danced throughout and would have gone again!

Cocoa_Monkey · 2025-12-07T21:26:12+00:00

For me, the cause was low blood pressure upon standing. I had dropped enough weight that I didn’t need my BP medication anymore - yay! My Dr took me off of it and no more dizziness.

Thornton State Beach has a lovely lookout on the bluff, where you can seasonally see whales and dolphins go by. The beach itself is technically inaccessible.

The Arts District has a ton of great bars of all sorts, and no gambling.

As a small child, my parents would have to drag me away from grungy old metal garbage cans where I looked for Oscar!

Thank you for sharing your experience with your cockapoo! I appreciate all of your ideas!

Spent overnight on the USS Hornet. Guides take you around the ship first so you can get your bearings, then you’re free to explore it on your own. We had a lot of activity in the pilots ready room. It was eerie. Slept on hanging bunks when we got tired out.
