Ditto for punch Vic.

I drink Crystal Light fruit punch everyday Uli, I've never found the punch to taste bad, right now I'm down to about 1/2 a quart, which is for Wednesday and is all I have left until I go shopping on Thorsday.

I know you drink that, but still "in my opionion" it is not good for your health.

Yes, I polute my body with other crap, but I won't touch artifical(?) sweetners.

Strange but true.

Strange but true.

The sweetener used in Crystal Light has been around for decades and has been determined to not be harmful, I've been drinking it for nearly a decade, I'm ok, nothing unusual here has happened. At least I don't take in much refined sugar.

Good for you Vic....

Refined sugar is the keyword here. I weight about a third of what you do, but eat/consume more calories. What is wrong with that picture?
One thing I have a problem with is Salt in England. No mater what I eat or not eat causes ankle swellings. AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHHH
So I win in California and not in England.

When I got sick ten years ago my edema
in my ankles was so bad, I still have liver
spots that look kind of like leopard spots
from the top of my feet to mid calf level!


edit:
If I even look at an image of chocolate cake I gain pounds.

ALL artificial sweeteners leave a bad taste in my mouth, so I avoid them like the plague. I have also been reading articles on Yahoo Health and other sources that show artificial sweeteners cause changes to the way your body processes nutrients that are almost as damaging as too much refined sugar. So if I had school-age kids (or grandkids) I would NOT want them drinking anything with artificial sweeteners in it. And minimize the carbonated sodas, period.

But we're getting a bit too close to Politics for my liking, so can we move back towards ...... winning?

I only use salt on My eggs, the left ankle and foot is swollen, while the right is barely swollen at all, the left might be from surgery that I had in 2002, since that was where 3 titanium screws were inserted into My leg at.

I had to take 3 pain pills today for the pain in My feet and legs, redheads/strawberry blonds are more sensitive to pain(The science of Red Hair), I have had to have as an example the max dosage of Novocaine for having a tooth removed, since with the normal dosage I could still feel the dentist trying to pull a tooth.

I had to go outside on Tuesday, to do some weeding on 3 weeds and pickup some litter(the park asked Me to do this), then I had to round up all the trash here and put everything into 3 bags, then I took the 3 trash bags to the trash bin, technically I should have a 4th or 5th bag for some boxes and buckets, but I'll see about the boxes and buckets later, since I need to go shopping on Thorsday and I'd like My legs to stop hurting before then.

That was a lot of catching up to do! :) Sorry to hear about your dog being poorly Blurf :(

As this is the winning post... I would like to take this opportunity to thank my agent, and my keyboard and my mum for falling asleep, and Raphael my fattest ginger tabby for pinning her to the chair and purring her there and... oh *blink at wrong side of thread door just millimetres from nose* How did that happen?

:)

---

oh...and did we say we like humans too? Well we do :)

The same way My right ankle got painful overnight, someone forgot the "Danger: low bridge" warning sign I'd imagine.

Thanks Annie, yeah as long as I keep it warm, the ankle should get better.

Didn't mean to start a controversy. They weren't serving it to the kids anyway. In the staff lounge, there is one of those spraying-at-the-top drink dispensers. One side used to have the Crystal Light and the other iced tea. It's still sitting there, but the new company isn't using it. That leaves us with only the little half pint cartons of milk, or (new this year) even smaller cartons of orange juice. I don't drink plain milk (I use it on cereal, but I don't drink it straight), so I have the chocolate... which has added sugar. I drink plenty of artificial sweeteners in other things, so I don't think another 12 ounces a day is going to kill me. But anyway...

Vic, persistent swelling in one ankle could mean there's a clot in that leg. If it breaks off, it could end up in your heart, lung, or brain, which would be really bad. Might be worth getting checked out, if your medical coverage will pay for it.

Ping!
