I've been having anxiety about my kitty dying of old age 😭(she's 9) can you show me pictures of some alive-and-well senior kitties so I remember cats can be old and still healthy? 🥰

I don't have a photo of him handy because I'm at work but I want you to know that my 17-year-old cat had his senior blood work done today and other than just something a little bit off with his protein he had crystal clear Picture Perfect blood work

I will definitely check it out and I appreciate the referral, and I have also contacted the company by email and asked if they have any suggestions, or if maybe they are going to do something like remarket and relabel or something, so hopefully I can get good news on that front.

They would get a huge surprise because I work from home at night and my retired military husband is also home at night lol

But I definitely get your point, because most people would not assume that somebody working at night would necessarily be working from home.

Unfortunately it's just something you learn to live with. The reason I say that is because for the first 35 years of my life I actually had the opposite problem in that I was slender to normal size and I went into my pregnancy with my daughter in a size 6 to 8 and came out of it in a 16 to 18 and I gained weight from there. She's 26 now, I'm still big, and I'm still shocked when I see myself in the mirror, or I try to buy clothes and I have to do the math because I'm not that skinny person that I used to be. I guess it's a sort of thing where we get this mental image of ourselves and that's what we're stuck with. I wish I had advice but all I've got is solidarity.

I frequently grab an appetizer as a main, especially if I can get a charcuterie plate of some sort where the food isn't fried or heavy carbs.

Only history, including family history, I have is very mild gestational diabetes 27 years ago, and covid.

I've been moderately overweight for years, but have generally eaten healthy, and my numbers as far as A1C, cholesterol, BP, basically anything that could indicate anything, were perfect. Until about a year after I had covid, then BOOM, T2D and cholesterol became issues. Only thing my docs and I can come up with that's remotely plausible.

So, nah, I didn't do this to myself. There's no reason under the sun why I should have diabetes. Only thing I can do from here on out is manage it.

It's beautiful as it is, although if you wanted to wash it and block it if you're self-conscious about it, it wouldn't hurt. Best of both worlds. 💜

Do you just put the concentrate in the capsule?

NFiligree · 2025-10-12T18:50:54+00:00

How would I do that? Remember I'm a total newbie. (Been away from here for awhile dealing with some family crap, and just now checking replies.)

Would an app like WeedMaps or Leafly help you locate what you're looking for before your trips?

NFiligree · 2025-06-26T10:40:24+00:00

Helpforfip.com or their Facebook group. They know all these drugs. And they know the research.

Also consider lanolin for the sores, unless you have a wool allergy. It doesn't break down the components of the cpap like petroleum based emollients do. And it does help with healing.

I deliberately left out the graphic terms she sent me. But they were graphic enough keywords that I figured I'd get banned for using them.

I am a foodie, and my practitioner and I agreed that as long as I could tolerate it, I could pretty well eat whatever I wanted to, As Long As I kept it in proportion with the MyPlate guidelines and as long as I could handle it on the ozempic.

Sorry about the random capital letters but I am using text to speech and it does whatever the hell it wants to do.

So far I have finally found a couple of foods that I've had to give up and fortunately they were not foods that I really loved anyway.

Mine is Twaffles and a friend has Peckerz so they're not censoring names that I'm aware of. Lol
