So, I lost quite a bit of weight. Proud to fit in a size 10 jeans. Wow! Haven't been there for 15 years. ( I had been a size 10 then miscarried, got pregnant had a beautiful baby girl, miscarried again). I added pounds on by eating anything, anywhere, anytime. Finally, my sister said that she would go on a weight-losing program to look better for her daughter's wedding, if I would do it with her. I submitted. So, after months of not eating but feeling cool in stylish clothes...I quit the program, but stayed in control for quite some time.
Now, after almost 6 months that included many family events (and cooking) 20 lbs. have found their way back! How did they find me? Aren't Grammas supposed to be "fluffy" (as my friend LuAnne would say)? Fluffy means that I should be "smusshy", "comfortable to lie on", "pillow-like". Aren't Fairy-Godmother arms included, as well?
But, living in SoCal, I can't go out in public with the 20lbs. x-tra. Right?
I'm so confused. I can't consume MSG cuz I'll get headaches. Now, I shouldn't drink bottled water, because there's no fluoride in it like our tap water...which, believe it or not, is the best in the world. Soda is bad. (It's the only drink that, if Diet, gives me a sense of "fullness".) Movie popcorn with the butter is terrible for you. The lard in Mexican food clogs one's arteries, among other things. And, watch out for those fruits and veggies with all the pesticides and wax on them. Don't overcook those veggies, either (can stand cooked ones anyway) cuz all of the nutrients will cook out. Val, answering the door to a milkman salesman and couldn't say "no", now has one gallon of milk delivered to our doorstep once a week. (After 6 children, we now have a milkman. lol I'm supposed to have my Calcium, but do I dare drink the milk? Snackers, fruit tongues, no yos, yetzels, etc., I know I shouldn't eat at all. So many foods are chalk-full of preservatives and the like.
And, because of growing "mature", I have been prescribed certain medications in which weight gain is a side-effect. Oh, great! What are the scientists THINKING! No wonder N. America has such an obesity factor.
I think perhaps I should just have someone "air brush" me before I go out in public...kind of like the Hollywood Stars in magazines.
But, I still can't figure out how those pounds found me. And, what CAN I eat?
....How lucky I am, to have so very much, to even ask that.

We don't need flouride! It's actually toxic waste. In adults it can cause brittle bones, and brittle allergies. I haven't had flouride pretty much all my life and my bones are strong and I have never had a single cavity!
As to what to eat, there are some great books out there. Here's one that's good: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1594201455/ref=s9_flash_asin_image_10/103-6744794-8700654?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=center-3&pf_rd_r=0KME4EED4XB3390M6J2A&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=338746501&pf_rd_i=507846
Brittle allergies, ahahahaha, I guess I was being distracted (what, me?). I meant brittle arteries! Flouride is pretty bad for adults.
Any way, your post is pretty funny! I hear you.
If that link doesn't work, the book I just suggested is titled, IN DEFENSE OF FOOD.
