To answer the last person's statements....black entertainment television shows and award shows were created because grammys and oscars at one point were racist and black entertainers were rarely awarded for their talent and tv shows were created because diverse shows were few and rare. Even today....most major movies have white people starring in them, but I will say lately that has been changing and things are more diverse. Also, black people use the n word to make fun of other black people they know...when a white person says it they don't know if you are playing or being racist which is why its best for them not to use it at all...I'm black and I don't use the word but I understand why some use it and why some people should never say it

I never use the N word. I think it is mostly because it would be very out of character for me. It's just not in my vocabulary. I would sound like a real dork. You know, just like someone in their 60's trying to talk like a teen. If other people use it, I guess that's their business. I don't hear the word often.

I do not like nor do I ever use the "N" word. I have a biracial child and her dad says it all the time...I would always get on him as well. I don't care what color you are, the word is horrible. I can't believe that people think that its okay to say. I better not EVER hear my daughter use it or she will be missing some teeth.

OH. MY. GOD.

What the hell is wrong with everyone? It is a word. Banning ANY words is absolutely against everything that I believe. In fact, putting bans on words seems to give them power. Let it go, y'all...let it go...

If you don't like the word, then don't use it.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
