    The only walking the Penny’s do is to and from the refrigerator and then to and from the bathroom. Those chairs have permanent divots in them.Do they ever go to the Doctor?Wait, I forgot, Doctors nowadays are working for Insurance Cos. and are forbidden to make comments about your weight lest you file a discrimination suit against them. True!

    Ma lands a perfect zinger! I think Burl would run a marathon if there were enough HoHos at the finish line.2old, my doc(s) all bug me about my weight and put my BMI on the record and now they are asking if anyone is abusing me. And then they ask if I have a Medical Power of Attorney and a Directive to Physicians.How do I know I’m too old? Here’s how. I was at a coffee shop this morning and the two young women behind the counter were complaining about the (lack of) quality in a singer’s voice on the radio. I agreed and said, “Pavarotti he ain’t.” Their response, “Who’s that?”It’s time for the Home.

    Mikie and Purple….

    Brisk??

    It would take him 2 weeks, with plenty of Big Mac breaks…. giant sodas… naps every 2 hours, and nights in motels.

    So I think he’d just drive to WalMart instead…. and then lie about it.

    2Old… please tell my doctor she’s forbidden to mention my weight…Maye you could convince her of the risks.

    I thank you in advance…

    I wish doctors would reminds us that yes you are fat. Yes I can give you a drug to make you feel better for a bit or kill the pain for a bit. But you are indeed killing yourself. See that person with the electric cart in a few year that is you. You want insulin shots go the way you are going. Or you can Save yourself eat better and get a bike, walk , hike or do sometime you will feel Alive.. It works. If you are fat you can do something about it. My bad off the soapbox

    My husband has discovered how to NOT be told by his doctor that he’s overweight. He refuses to go.

    Forget about walking a mile. I can’t see any of them walking from their car to Walmart unless they park the car right in front of the door.

    I’ve often lost weight and gained it back again once I returned to normal eating. I was down to around 120 when I decided to go on the year of vegetarian (seeing my holistic doctor about every 3 months). Now that I am eating regular meals including meats and cheeses, and drinking cocktails again, I THOUGHT that I’d have to eat less bread or pasta.

    Because of the fact that I now only buy good hearty whole grains, they do not cause me to gain weight. I still have my regular ration of dark chocolate, too. And I was already consuming many fruits and veggies, now there are more of the latter. Even when my boyfriend cooks, he includes at least one vegetable in every meal, and is converting to more whole grains.
