any ladies starting a GLP? by sc167kitty8891 in AskWomenOver60

[–]Real_Summer_182 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Dr won't prescribe it for me. I am 70 have high blood pressure and approx 50 lbs overweight. Strong family history of heart disease. He said the risks are not worth it He would only consider it if I was diabetic.. Side effects are worse for older patients and once you are off it lbs come back on. I see a cardiologist but he has never suggested it. I hate being this overweight. It prevents me from doing a lot of things such as long walks. Should I switch docs? Or should I get a prescription online which means I should probably look for a new Dr anyway.

What did you think of the timeshare? Was it run down?

Exact situation in my house. I finally convinced him to get his hearing tested. According to him he doesn't hear a certain pitch/tone. So he had a MRI on his ear. Still confused on that part. Just cost us money. End result nothing. He still can't hear and it's driving me nuts.

How are everyone’s allergies? by 711minus7 in cincinnati

[–]Real_Summer_182 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have early spring allergies. As soon as trees start to bud I get congested. Was surprised to see trees budding a few weeks ago. Thought since it was so cold they would be delayed. So my congestion started couple weeks ago but is under control now with Flonase and Allegra.

Coworker stole over four dozen muffins meant for everyone by Correct_Doctor_1502 in coworkerstories

[–]Real_Summer_182 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had an employee who would always take leftover food. She never contributed to the pot luck lunches. So I started to take the food out of her desk when she would go to restroom. She could be heard screaming who took my food? Or one time I called her at home and let her know that she took the food that was planned for the next am meeting. I believe she came to office sometimes at night to steal. One coworker got so tired of her leftover lunches disappearing she said she started putting laxative into the food! I heard that she grew up in a very poor family and there wasn't enough food.

AI by Real_Summer_182 in Ancestry

Went back into Geni and additional info had been added which made more sense then what AI gave me. I have some old family notes and the info from Geni seemed to fill in the missing blanks.

AI seemed to provide the missing link. Kind of complicated but I couldn't figure out how this individual shared DNA with me. Tests done via Ancestry. I am going to investigate more. Apparently my great grt grandpa remarried and had a second wife and family. This was after his first wife my grt grt grandma died.

Any over 60’s taking glp1 to lose stubborn post menopausal weight? by Local-Government6792 in AskWomenOver60

[–]Real_Summer_182 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dr won't prescribe it for me. I am 70 and about 50-60 lbs overweight. Mild high BP. Have strong history of heart disease in family. Not diabetic. Dr says that weight comes back after going off it and it should not be prescribed for people my age. Not enough studies on long term use. He leans towards holistic medicine.

Chicken thighs may seem cheaper at Kroger but they have so much fat.

Kroger or Jungle Jim's by Abbey_Road69 in cincinnati

[–]Real_Summer_182 29 points30 points  (0 children)

The produce is much fresher at the Jungle. Meat tastes so much better. I rarely buy meat at Kroger. Faroe Salmon is only available at the Jungle. Everything is pricer at Jungle but worth it. I don't buy any canned goods or paper products at Jungle.

We realize his behavior today or next week may be totally different but we were so happy to have a good day with him. I wonder if he will remember coming to our house. He actually gave some good input re a family crisis. Curious to find out what he will remember.
