    amytug reacted to DonRodolfo in Protein Bars?   
    I tried my first Quest Protein Bar today because of this thread and I gotta say they're my favorite so far. I got the Peanut Butter and chocolate at a nearby GNC but could only finish half of it. I like the flavor and I'm okay that it doesn't taste overly sweet. Will probably try that apple pie next.

    amytug got a reaction from Butterthebean in Seriously? Does everyone exercise?   
    Not arguing but actually I feel that having real milk instead of skim milk would be the healthy choice. have that full fat milk and eat one less snack! Not all fat is the enemy.

    I like you. Please don't think in calling you out or anything. We were created to move. To use our muscles day in and day out. Not push buttons and barely lift a finger like most of us do this day and age. I believe we all NEED fairly intense exercise. Not just cardio.

    Ill out myself as someone who pm'd Laura this morning.
    He said those things to me too.
    He knew me before I arrived and was "excited to meet me"
    He asked me of I'd read anything about him being unprofessional. I hadnt. He reassured me that if I did, it wasn't true.
    Told me while I was still under the affects from anesthesia that I was beautiful and I was the type of woman that didn't need makeup to make me beautiful. Made it a point to bring It up again later and asked if I remembered what he had said.
    For the record, I'm a happily married woman and didn't take the bait. I am sure he's a liar as well. Other things he told me just didn't line up.
    He seemed short with me and frustrated while at the hotel. I didn't really understand why, after he'd been so sweet and smiley. Maybe it was because I told one of the night nurses that he was a flirt?
    I LOVE DR. GARCIA though. This dr. Luna thing needs to be addressed. Dr. Luna I know you're reading. SO disappointed in you.

    I downloaded the app and I'm going to start this. I'm going to join a gym and do it there for two reasons:
    1. I can't wuss out when it gets hot in the summer (it's winter now here in Australia)
    2. I have ligament damage in my right ankle and its very prone to sprains. I've never had one on the treadmill but have a few a year outside just from walking around. I need surgery but want to wait until I'm smaller so crutches get easier.
    3. There is a gym right across from my office so there is literally no excuse.
    I have actually done this workout several times in my past. The first was in 2001 when it was just an article in Runners World and I was in the midst of losing 35 kg (70 pounds) on Weight Watchers. That was on the treadmill. Then I did it again outside with my husband. Running outside was harder. Then I did it again when I was fat again and it didn't go well. But I think it will be good for me to do it again as long as I pair it with strength training. I love how it feels to be a runner. I ran track and field in high school (800 meters, 1600 meters, and 3200 meters) and it was a big source of pride.
    Not sure if I will start it this week as I have a business trip coming up that will have me in India for three weeks. I don't relish the thought of running in Indian traffic but I think there is a gym I will have access to. But if I join the gym tomorrow I will e paying for 3 weeks I won't be using. Hmm.
    I'm slowly skimming through this thread but thought I would post and say hello. Sorry for the rambling!

    amytug reacted to SweetTee in I lied.   
    The law of defamation protects a person's reputation and good name against communications that are false and derogatory. Defamation consists of two torts: libel and slander. Libel consists of any defamation that can be seen, most typically in writing. Slander consists of an oral defamatory communications. The elements of libel and slander are nearly identical to one another.
    Specific requirements that a plaintiff must prove in order to recover in a defamation action differ from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Under the Restatement (Second) of Torts, which is drafted by the American Law Institute and has been influential among state courts, a plaintiff must prove four elements.
    First, the plaintiff must prove that the defendant made a false and defamatory statement concerning the plaintiff.
    Second, the plaintiff must prove that the defendant made an unprivileged publication to a third party.
    Third, the plaintiff must prove that the publisher acted at least negligently in publishing the communication.
    Fourth, in some cases, the plaintiff must prove special damages.

    With this being said BS has placed herself and others in a very difficult spot. SHE (either willingly or thru coercion) has OPENLY stated that SHE lied. Basically admitting libel!! If in fact what she said was 100% truth, the way that she went about expressing the truth makes her actions questionable, especially when she turned around and recanted her story. People have taken what she has said and made the assumptions that the man could be capable of "rape and molestation of a pt while under anesthesia."
    If indeed he is guilty of sleeping with patients, in the United States he may be deemed guilty of moral turpitude; however, if what the OP has accused him of is untrue, in the United States he would be entitled to punitive damages (which wouldn't be difficult to recover since she's admitted she "lied".
    Oh my, the drama never ends here. I suggest that you all let sleeping dogs lie and "back away from the fire".
    Truth or untruth, in the end we ALL must answer to a higher power who is ALL knowing. So if it seems as though he's "getting away" with things, he won't be. And if the OP is indeed "lying" then SHE will have to be held accountable on THAT day.

    Maybe hes ashamed that he gets his jollies off of banging chubbies fresh out of the slaughter (stolen words from a friend).
    Also, dr. Garcia is NOT the type of man that would appreciate that in the least. He's a very kind and humble family man.
    So much for staying out of it.

    Thank you. It makes my day to think that you spent that time scouring the thread to find the "1st post" position lol. Anal much? As I said I have read all of the threads on this subject and I knew you had already posted in this one. I was not referring to waiting for you to post in this thread. I was referring to waiting for you to respond to my post and to disagree with me. As I've already said I've read your posts throughout the forum. I get that that's how you roll.
