I'm fially coming out of the closet as a slouch.

Hope you all don't mind...I tend to let out some pretty mighty belches when I drink beer.  I promise not to "burp and blow" on you.

I draw the line at anything bright blue...that's not natural, lol. Actually it goes back to when I saw my ex drunk as a skunk for the very first time (after over a decde of marriage). He decided to start drinking, and his first bout was with some drinks called Blue Hawaiians. I had to clean up the resulting mess and that's put me off brighht blue food ever since.

Those are some pretty exotic sounding concoctions, Weesa, but I'm wondering if you know how to make MY specialty drinks? How about the BMX Collins or the Hot Flash? Do you have the ingredients for Foobies on the Rocks or the Taxol Sunrise or maybe an Arimidex Sour?

Where is the cancer/sugar link? I need to look at it. I love sweets, but I try to watch though,but not too well.

Jager bombs are an acquired taste,  you just have to get past the medicinal taste... I lasted a full 32 hours non stop in Las Vegas on jager bombs...never felt tired and danced the night away   

I am not real sure about bright blue drinks, but I am game to try just about anything once. 

Weesa, I am in the same boat as you.  I have the best of intentions and sometimes I follow through.....but tonight I was on my deck enjoying several Coors Lites with my hubby.  That seems to be the case more often than not.

Well how great are all of you sistas!!  I've been a kind of self loathing sloucher since dx.  Always did all the right things all my life and still got cancer.  Ate healthy, educated myself with books on women's health, yearly mammos and pap smears, ran 3 miles every day and worked out,  also rode my horses in jumping shows, stayed physically active,  great salad and fish eater, no sugar or preservatives.  Oh, and my Dh works in the vitamin healthfood manufacuring industry, so i've always had supply of greatsupplemts especially while breastfeeding all of my children.  When I found out i had breast cancer stage III,  I thought WTF  How did this happen to ole unsloucher me  After the shock of it I was given a book to encourage me "Crazy Sexy CAncer"   Didn't really do anything for me.  So now i'm just focusing on getting thru my days feeling good, so like a real sloucher I intentionally skip the Tomoxifen for a day or two here and there.  I could have done my 3 mile walk that I tell myself every day that I want to do, BUT  not really?  I wish I could be more like everyminute, and sherri, but the body suddenly has turned against me and prefers to slouch., And I hate the side effects of Tomoxifen and go days not taking my dose.  Now that is really slouching..Weesa I would love to sit in your pub and have a Bombay Sapphire Martini a3 olives & 3 onions   luv it!!!  Goes great with caviar. Today I slouched all day on my front proch reading a book and watcing all the people walking up the block to go to the beach for Lobster Fest here in Bradely Beach, and fireworkd toningt.

hmmmm...never been to the mountains....east.... i only know california and south dakota/iowa*  what is it like """""there"""""""??  not sure i know what fried okra is actually...is it like cauliflower?

WOW!I found this thread at the right time..have an appointment tomorrow about recon and all I could think of was having to take my clothes off and have this nice looking younger man look at the lumpy bumpy me...I have been trying to exercise,but some days....And I was feeling guilty because my best friend is taking me and we always go to lunch..and I planned  to eat healthy,but what kind of celebration is that???..Thanks to you,tomorrow I am just going to enjoy,have my wine,eat chocolate cake..and maybe say to the doctor"Honey,if you had only seen me naked five years ago..."

Today was my Gpa's memorial service and in fine the "x" family function we all toasted to Gpa by doing shot's...today's shots of choice were Firebomb's (a cinnamon infused whiskey) which I liked much better then the Rose's tequila that we used to toast my Gma a few years ago.

It was a bittersweet day full of family, friends, food and memories.  My Gp's 5 children, 13 grandchildren, 19 great grandchildren, their collective spouse's and friends ...what an amazing legacy for a wonderful man.

and claire- your biscuit post was hilarious!! my son loves biscuits and is always begging me to make some.

yes, some grease is killer, although soo tasty in small amounts. love bacon...last summer, i found a recipe for a BLT made with peanut butter. actually awesome, on a crusty roll...yum. thought of the sloucher club last night. was working and had brought healthy snacks (avocado, orange)..finished those and found oatmeal raisin cookies (homemade) in the break room. you can imagine what happened next (drum roll, screaming offstage)...oh dear it all went up in smoke!!

hope folks are having a good day...again, thinking of you O2b.....

I actually paniced yesterday because I went to a family party, had beef, pasta, cake and oh yeah salad and a diet coke.   I thought OMG this is why I got bc it's the way I eat.  Then I laid on my couch and watched everyone run, walk, bike past my house.   I need to get motivated to excersize.  Radiation is knocking me out though.   I have incorporated more veggies and fruit and cutting back on meat.

Do you think if I just gradually make changes that's okay?

I just love sugar....why is it so bad....bummer.   Wish beans were as good.
