I lost a lot of weight. They do cause some irritability after longer use.<br /><br />Yes, I know they were no good for you but darn - it helped me to keep my weight off.<br /><br />I miss them, too!Perubyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17948233191244821909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2758315312808346503.post-17172464598068079842012-05-29T13:23:42.703-04:002012-05-29T13:23:42.703-04:00Leann - yep I can't seem to refuse making mone...Leann - yep I can't seem to refuse making money and I end up suffering for it. I did get some vitamin B, the kind that you put under your tongue ....I really couldn't tell much difference. Thinking about it....I don't know how I found the time and energy to work before I retired.<br /><br />Forsythia - I don't know if you're familiar with "The Rugrats" cartoons but I often remind myself of the old grandpa on there who falls asleep every time he sits down. Seems like I do that so often. HOWEVER....those NCIS shows did keep me awake....probably because I love them so much.<br /><br />Peruby - I had to laugh at your comment and all I could think of was "great minds think alike". Seems like everyone...except for kids ....has a lack of energy these days. Makes me wish I could get my hands on some of those diet pills the doc gave me back in the 70's before they took them off the market. Now...those were good....but of course they usually gave you heart palpitations or a score of other problems, which wasn't so good. Thank God I don't have the headaches but my daughter does. She gets migraines and always before a storm. She's a better weather forecaster than what's on TV. lolGolden To Silver Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04585559845728927540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2758315312808346503.post-68733870653594766092012-05-29T12:47:44.572-04:002012-05-29T12:47:44.572-04:00Paxie - You know I've heard so MANY people com...Paxie - You know I've heard so MANY people complain of being tired lately. Since most of my friends are old like me....it's probably due to being long in the tooth. LOLOLOL<br /><br />Josie - seems like all of us females have that in common....the old "guilty complex". One thing about getting older is that you start getting an attitude about it....a "what the hell" attitude. LOL<br /><br />Lotta - I don't remember hearing about this before, but I'm definitely going to ask my doctor about it. My energy packed its bags and left town ages ago...without even so much as a forwarding address. <br /><br />Blissed - I have strongly suspected that I may have fibromyalgia but have never been officially diagnosed with it. My doctor did, however, refer me to a doctor who specializes in that disorder. I am planning on seeing him and hoping I can do something for this pain, which pain pills help but don't eliminate.<br /><br />MerCyn - I KNOW!! I hate it when they do that to us. I used to love watching "24" but each episode left you hanging and it was the show that ALWAYS got pre-empted for some special or breaking news event....sometimes going 3 weeks between episodes. It got so I could never remember where it left off and eventually just quit watching it.Golden To Silver Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04585559845728927540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2758315312808346503.post-71533047503115936602012-05-28T11:58:04.555-04:002012-05-28T11:58:04.555-04:00What is this - an epidemic?

You are REALLY not going to believe this. I was going to post the exact same picture you did.<br /><br />How is that for coincidence?! You must have "googled" exhausted images too.<br /><br />Feeling it here in Ohio and after reading this post I see that it probably is the heat draining it out of us.<br /><br />Now, about headaches.....Perubyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17948233191244821909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2758315312808346503.post-66668114999844457352012-05-28T06:21:01.357-04:002012-05-28T06:21:01.357-04:00Well, maybe you're not as tired as you think. ...Well, maybe you're not as tired as you think. If you can sit in front of the TV for a marathon and NOT fall asleep like many a senior, you're doing better than a lot of your peers. Doesn't matter how good the Netflix movie is, or how exciting. My husband soon drifts off, only to wake up a half hour later: "Who's this person?" "Why are the police there?" "Is she really pregnant?" etc etc etc.Forsythiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11842925744413303224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2758315312808346503.post-87097474135084086522012-05-27T15:59:22.120-04:002012-05-27T15:59:22.120-04:00Eh, working more hours....I heard that in there. ...Eh, working more hours....I heard that in there. I'm sure that has a part in it. If you are interested in the Emergency C drink mixes they have vitamin b's in them for energy. I tried one of my sisters and darned if it didn't work. Worth a try?<br /><br />I know the weather in Oregon sure had me feeling the loss of energy. We have the same kind of extremes you do. <br /><br />I hope you find your energy and good for you for refusing to ride the guilt train!!

I, too, am feeling tired in the hot or changing weather, but I find that if I move around, either through a walk or some yoga, I feel better. I was diagnosed years ago with fibromyalgia, which had me dragging around for months, so I know I have to stay somewhat disciplined. Hard to do when I least feel like it, though.Nancy/BLissed-Out Grandmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17223278142557533175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2758315312808346503.post-63304918331417678202012-05-27T13:37:58.920-04:002012-05-27T13:37:58.920-04:00Drama makes you tired.

I keep TELLING you (maybe one day you'll listen) to ask the doctor for NASCOBAL nose spray. ($300 without insurance or I couldn't afford it. isn't that pathetic?) but it WILL give you ENERGY.

I feel that way most days too, like I never have enough energy to accomplish all I'd like. I'm glad that your Doc says you're in good working order. I agree, let's blame it on the darn weather - almost all our days are in the high 90's here already, and the heat just drains my batteries flat. Funny how we lived out in it when we were kids, with no adverse effect other than a bit of sunburn, huh? Ahhh, to have that energy again, or even half of it!<br /><br />I agree, we could dwell in guilt all the time, but what purpose does it serve? I like the way you refocus on something else, works for me too. I believe we have done and continue to do the best we can each day with what we have. Somedays better than others. You've become a wonderful "silver citizen", and I'm following right behind! I hope we see you more often if your hours drop off a bit. I've missed you so much!
