Getting In Shape For Spring

   Posted by: jude8753   in Senior Health

Spring is coming and everyone is thinking about getting in shape after the long Winter months of inactivity and all those holiday feasts.

“I feel like my body has gotten totally out of shape, so I got my doctor’s permission to join a fitness club and start exercising. I decided to take an aerobics class for seniors. I bent, twisted, gyrated, jumped up and down, and perspired for an hour. But, by the time I got my leotards on, the class was over.”

A friend sent that little bit of humor my way this morning and I couldn’t resist sharing it with my online friends. I am working on getting in shape and feeling better, but I really don’t think I will ever wear a leotard. Sweat pants are more my style especially at my age and much easier to get into.

I’m starting out slowly because of my back and hips. I’m so tired of feeling crappy. I’ve been taking vitamin D3 and drink Goji juice every morning and that is doing wonders for me.

I have been smoke free for 10 months and alcohol free for 2 months and I feel much better. I am losing my extra weight slowly this time by eating healthier and staying at 1300 calories a day instead of fasting for a couple weeks and starving myself. Since I started vaping I drink lots of water (96 ounces a day now) so I don’t get dehydrated.

Just wanted to update my blog today since I’m feeling better. I hope to get back in a routine again this year and start blogging again and visiting all my old friends. Take care and God bless.

I have been off tobacco for over 9 months now thanks to my personal vaporizer. I have collected several nicotine vaporizers over these months to enable and ensure that I no longer kill myself using 4,000 chemicals in a real cigarette. I still receive the nicotine I need in small doses and have enjoyed breathing and smelling better, just to name a couple advantages because the list is too long.

There is so much false information regarding the use of electronic cigarettes and now New York is proposing a ban on Tuesday. If you use a personal vaporizer and want to continue I urge you to watch the video below and respond per the instructions. I have been amazed by my own progress and I would hate to see new potential users denied the right to an alternative for their health.

Thinking Of You

   Posted by: jude8753   in Uncategorized

Sorry about my last post I guess I was having a pity party during the holidays. It’s been hard the past 2 years getting through the month of December since both my boys died in that month. It was 2 years for my Eric and 1 for my furry Son Shadow.

Thinking of You
(Author unknown)

We thought of you with love today,
But that was nothing new.
We thought about you yesterday,
And the days before that too.
We think of you in silence,
We often speak your name.
All we have are memories,
And your picture in a frame.
Your memory is our keepsake,
With which we will never part.
God has you in His keeping,
We have you in our hearts.
A million times we’ve wanted you,
A million times we’ve cried.
If love could only have saved you,
You never would have died.
It broke our hearts to lose you,
But you did not go alone.
For a part of us went with you…
The day God called you home

I really have nothing to say, but if there are any other Westie owners out there please leave a comment. I will add pictures of our huge Westie soon. I am trying to keep this blog and not really sure what I want to do about it yet…..That’s it for now.

Tobacco Smoke Free For 8 Months/ Merry Christmas

   Posted by: jude8753   in Uncategorized

I have been tobacco smoke free for 8 months and have never felt better since starting personal nicotine vaporizing. I don’t like the term e-cig even if it allows me the same feeling of fulfillment as a tobacco cig did without the other 4,000 dangerous chemicals added.

Nicotine is about as dangerous as caffeine when used in a responsible way and with personal vaporizers  it’s a god-send for cigarette smokers. I will go into this further at a later date, but for now I would like to share the wonderful news we PV users got recently.

CASAA Lauds Decision on Electronic Cigarettes

Consumer group calls Appeals Court decision against FDA a great victory for public health.
Online PR News – 08-December-2010 –The U.S. Court of Appeals (DC Circuit) has affirmed that the FDA cannot regulate or ban e-cigarettes as drug devices as long as the manufacturer makes no therapeutic claims for their product.

“We estimate that over a million smokers have switched to electronic cigarettes.”

“This is a great victory for public health,” stated Theresa Whitt, M.D., medical director of the Consumer Advocates for Smoke-free Alternatives Association (CASAA). The appeals court upheld an injunction against the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) seizing product imports, claiming they were unapproved drug delivery devices. CASAA Lauds Decision on Electronic Cigarettes/Read the rest.

I would also like to share a personal link to a forum that has helped me tremendously and that is ECF /Forum for anyone needing to find a less harmful and alternative for burning tobacco products. Hopefully I will start updating again soon and sharing more take care and Merry Christmas to you all.
