Im scared of gaining weight through this crisis
I am entitled to my opinion.... And i'm still not worried. I go to work every day, go to the grocery and get only what is needed. I have NOT overbought anything. Husband and i had dinner out Saturday night and it was great.... No waiting for a table, no waiting for drinks, and no waiting for food. It was a beautiful meal.... Crab claws appetizer, Filet (MR) Grilled asparagus, and au gratin potatoes.... (glad he let me eat off his plate). Stuck to my portions During all this, and managed to lose a pound and a half this week. I never said this sickness was made up... Corona has been around.... Honestly had the media not scared the crap out of people, most would be going about there lives as normal. I know of not one person, or even a person of a person.... or even a person of a person of a person that has tested positive. I do know one thing... that the person in front of me yesterday that bought 10 gallons of orange juice and left NONE on the shelf for anyone else is panic buying.... I would NEVER do that... Ridiculous. She pulled her buggy up to the cooler and had her daughter stand so that no one else could get any. Not going to lie... the thought (i hope she loses power and all that juice goes bad) did cross my mind. People fighting over toilet paper and a can of veggies.... come on people. If people would shop as normal we would not be in the situation that we are... Pre this years deer.... it's filled up even more now... One pound of ground deer could last me nearly a week. The Bread isle... I don't eat bread, so could careless. This was the case on the candy, ship, soda.... still... don't care. Produce is full and that's what i care about..... When i can't get fresh veggies... then i will start to worry. Planted my herbs for the year... all good.

I agree, but you look younger than Morgan.... He is/was one of my favorite TWD characters... Technically he is probably still alive. Do you watch TWD? He's in the very first eps. and throughout the years has a major impact on the storyline...... I'm a HUGE TWD fan.

I haven't told anyone about my surgery
I have Two views about this ..... In 2009 i had the band done. At first my (now ex) husband, two sons, DIL and my friend Paula (who had it done the year before), she was also a co worker. It wasn't until about 6 months and people started noticing the WL that i started to open up about it. Of course, i got all the "look"... OHHH you took the easy way out. I did get judged by most everyone. I had people watching me eat... saying, should you be eating that... why aren't you losing weight as fast as others.... You are losing too much.... blah blah blah. So this time around... only my husband (remarried Sept. one month PO). Lately i find i have been getting a lot of.... Wow you really have lost a lot of weight.... This weekend i was so proud of my husband..... We had a crawfish boil and one of our neighbors commented on my weight...... He chimed right up and said,.... she changed her eating habits.... Bam... Love him. So much better not telling.....

Really... hmmm i don't remember saying anything about politics,.... but i could be wrong (please remind me). I really have no memory of that... then again i take Ambien at night and do some crazy stuff. If i did, i'm not afraid of eating crow..... Now maybe i posted something about going hunting.... How can you give something to someone that you don't have? I've checked with a few of my family and friends who are RN's and a Dr..... asked what their thoughts and they all said the same thing.... It's getting blown out of portion. But, like with everything, everyone has an opinion... i have been blessed with a great immune system... Thank you God...

that was one sentence .... and that's what you got out of that..... AND it's how i feel about all of this... I am NOT WORRIED AT ALL ABOUT CORONA VIRUS..... Even though most gyms are closing.... it's free to walk outside.... My Health and support were completely valid.... I simply said to stock up on better choices and to keep moving.....

Clothes?
I love giving to St. Vincent's..... I NEVER give to Goodwill anymore... I stopped buying there also. I prefer paying a little more at a consignments shop. Last time i cleaned out my clothes.... i gave them to a fellow WLS patient..... Posted on the site that i had stuff to give away.... bam... gone

Not worried at all.... my feelings... this is all being over blown due to the Presidental race in Nov. They want the economy to tank so they can have a reason to say.... look how bad Trump is. why did you stock up on pasta, rice? why not stock up on fresh veggies and meats.... I use my vacuum sealer to keep things fresh.... I don't eat much, so i'm good. This is another reason.... i love hunting... i have a freezer full of Deer There is nothing stopping you from going outside and walking around.... turn on Netflix and do yoga... it cost nothing to walk/run in the neighborhood or at a park. Or you can do some cardio in your own back yard... take in some fresh air.
