Yeah I don't eat meat anymore except some seafood. I do eat a lot of salad though....it seems to be ok. What is considered processed foods? Sorry, not to sure about that. Is that like frozen meals and such?
Did your pain just gradually go away?

Yes, I think the pain gradually improved. Processed food includes crackers, cookies, potato chips, candy, desserts--anything man made, as opposed to fruits, veggies, whole grain breads and rice, oatmeal, fish, chicken, etc. Did you check out the website I posted??

I saw the article was in 1997..that's awesome about Lance. What is he doing now?

The first part of the article ended in 1997, but the last part of the article gives an update on what happened since he graduated in '97. That is the part that I wrote, and there are pics of me and both of my sons at the bottom. Do you have any cute, single friends???

Oh duh I saw that about the pizza hut closing, sorry!
LOL I wish I did!

My older son is in pharm school. He is 36 and has never been married. Maybe he can be like Anderson Cooper, who I think is cute.

He doesn't have much time for girls in school, right??

He's off this summer (and working at a pharmacy), but during the school year he is very busy. The studies are quite difficult, but he is half way through now. He used to be a pt chem instructor at our local junior college, which probably is helping him.

Maybe he should try on-line dating agencies : ))) ! Works for so many people wonderfully . I am sure there are many nice 34-36 young professional girls not having time for dating scene and dreaming of settling down with nice, family oriented ,nice looking and educated guy !!!!! He must be lonely at 36 with just school and job taking all of his time. Most of his friends probably already have families and all (sigh...).
I wish him best of luck in that respect

Yes, maybe he can try that this summer. My husband says that he is too picky!! He doesn't seem lonely as he has lots of friends that he hangs around with. But most of them do have families.
