When I was growing up rye and ginger was a very popular drink. (Maybe it is an easterner thang....):)

I only drink wine, Bloody Marys, scotch-rocks, or beer. My husband likes rum and coke and B-52s. Whenever he orders rum and coke and I order scotch-rocks the waiter drops off the rum-coke on my side of the table. :) Go figure, eh.:omg:

Nope....rye and ginger is definitely not an Easterner thing (I haven't lived in Ontario all my life, ya know!); I can attest to that!

It just isn't as common to the younger folk!! There, I said it!! LOL....

but.....I'm with Green....nothin' beats a good scotch....(a good one, mind you....not the cheap imitation stuff!).

Rye and ginger, a popular drink around here also. Personally, can't stand the taste or smell of rye, bourbon or scotch. The first thing I ever drank was rye.....got very very ill. Never been able to drink it again and that was probably 25 years ago. I like everything else although since banding can't drink wine anymore. When I drink wine, I get terrible heartburn. My choice these days is a White Russian, the milk in it is easier on the stomach.

I'm like that with rum Wheezy.....I can just get a teeny whiff of it and I wanna hurl. I KNOW it is related to my school trip (at the age of 15) to the Stratford Festival (ie. drunken blast without supervision) wherein I drank enough Rum to fill a pool and thought "mixing" drinks meants 1 tsp of mix (ie. coke) and 3 cups of rum. Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooo the horrible memory of it.

And the next day I was so naive that I truly thought I had come down with the flu.

Soooo not fun.......rum never passed between my lips again!

LMAO!!!

Hey!!! C'mon....ya can't tell me ya didn't experiment with alcohol that young? (really...didn't you?). Don't worry....I was at least 16 before I had another drink!!! LOL. Of course then I realized if you drink vodka you can't smell it on your breath and so I started to have them liquid lunches at High School....no worries....only for a wee bit (bad crowd!)....then I went back to PB&J and didn't drink again until I was LEGAL!!!!

course, I don't drink at ALL now....(really I don't).....I guess I got it all outta me early!!

At least I can honestly say I never tried drugs....not too many people can say that in all honesty!!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
