Every time you post a picture of your creations, I do this thing where I'm just not satisfied until I get to the store and try to re-create! Not kidding. And, I'm not a big eater at all ... just not. But, I would be if I had the knack of making the things you do.<br /><br />Don't worry about the weight gain. Certain medications will do that. I have a slim build, but over the last year I had quite a significant weight gain. Not a huge deal, except that I have a really bad leg from a crush injury - auto accident- in 1999 (4 orthopedic doctors have recommended amputation since 2006, but I have RSD and don't want anymore surgery). Anyway, I needed to figure out where the weight came from because my leg really can't handle the extra weight. I finally decided to look at my medications ... duh! Well, doctor had prescribed a prescription antihistamine (among other things) to combat some allergies that creeped up on me last January. I looked all my meds up, and this medication was notorious for weight gain. I stopped taking it and the weight MELTED off in a little over a week. No change in my eating at all ... it was just the medicine!<br /><br />So, that's my long winded way of saying, "Take care of your health ... take your medicine ... don't worry about the weight ... and once you're well, your weight will level off again".<br /><br />Hugs,<br />~PattyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2565064927448520692.post-76332415786069306902010-12-15T07:09:19.626-05:002010-12-15T07:09:19.626-05:00The salad looks great, my kitten has a thing for e...The salad looks great, my kitten has a thing for earplugs.. she especially likes to play with them in the bathtub.

They are entertaining and affectionate but not nearly as demanding as dogs. My boy Ben likes to hold hands. If I lightly grasp his paw he falls asleep immediately... a holdover from kittenhood. Bug likes to be held on her back while having her tummy rubbed. Watching them snuggle together warms my heart.<br /><br />The bean salad looks delicious.<br /><br />It was good you stayed home to rest. I hope it gets better.Beckynoreply@blogger.com
