I have a friend who just had surgery to correct this problem of pee leaking out at times.....it was from a prolapsed bladder (think that's what they called the problem)....it's actually a medical problem that can be fixed through surgery. I know for me, just getting older & when I end up lifting something really heavy, it will cause pee to leak out & that's even at a weight that is just a little above the lowest ok weight for my size. They say that extra weight causes the problem to be greater when we get older & then when there is an actual medical problem that needs to be corrected surgically, which is something people don't like to really do if they don't HAVE TO.....it does cause that problem of not smelling good even though they don't notice it.

I am so sensitive about smelling, during the summer, even just working around my own yard, I change my cloths every time I come into the house to go to the bathroom.....sometimes the humidity is so great & can't get my cloths back up, so have to put on clean dry cloths which makes me feel better also.

Have been enjoying the fresh fruit I bought at the grocery store yesterday.....blueberries, black berries & raspberries I put together in a bowl & have been enjoying snacking on them all day. They had yellow plums at the grocery yesterday also.....they are the most delicious plums I have ever tasted....wish I had purchased more now than just the 2 I bought.....but I will enjoy the nectarines.....& the little tangerines......could live on fruit. I also bought sweet potato chips....they are healthy to snack on......but I do need to eat REAL meals & sometimes when I have the snack food even though it's good & healthy, I don't bother making meals for myself......too lazy.

I only have 1 mirror up in my house & it's a bathroom wall mirror over the sink.....which is higher than anything that I can use to see anything other than my face. I do have a scale that I was never willing to give up......& I can definitely see when the weight starts to drop, it's something that gives a good feeling & the desire for it to go lower....even though I haven't allowed it to happen because none of my stresses have been bad enough or lasted long enough for that to happen.

I do remember how disgusting I looked after loosing so much weight back in 2004/2005......looking like my 96 year old grandmother with all her wrinkles wasn't anything that looked pretty. My face is still full of those wrinkles as even though I have gained back to a safe weight which took several years.....it's not enough to fill in the wrinkles & I'm not willing to gain enough for them to be filled in.....will just have to live with the wrinkles
