This last few months I had some knee pain, the doctor said that the bones that join at the knee are not at the right degree..I had a problem when I was 3 years old, my lower legs were going more outside than usual, we fixed the problem, but 3 degrees were left...it's not visible, only doctors notice it...the doctor suggested that I should lose some kilos and prescribed a gel to use when in pain...I lost 4 kilos and I already feel better, the pain is eliminated, but I need to lose more...

Isn't it amazing how many of our physical problems can be helped by losing weight? I'm trying to, also. Helps the hips, the knees and the diabetes.

That's true!!! I'm in my 30's and overweight...my grandpa and two of my great grandmothers had diabetes...thank God my blood sugar level is normal, but I have a fear that when I get older I might have problems...So far, the only problem I have is my low iron levels...

Gina, please keep trying to lose weight. After 40, is gets harder and harder and our chances of Type II diabetes grown larger. Not only will it help your knees, it will lower your blood pressure and cholesterol (generally) and you'll feel better, too. I'm pulling for you!

You're right...I keep trying to change my lifestyle: eating more healthy (I don't eat junk food and I cook every day) and exercising every day...
Love the Orson Welles saying, so hilarious! :)) Thanks for sharing Aussiesapphire. Hope you are doing better, health-wise. Keep smiling! :)

Hi tomandray, yes, getting there, just trying to take it easy. Because it was put down to old age, cannot do anything about that lol, so it could happen again. Thanks for your concern. Hugs.
Nice thing about cup cakes, is that it is just a cup cake and you only have to eat just the cup cake. And you can just freeze the rest of the cup cakes or better yet, give them away to families or jus donate them.
I think this is just icing piped on to make them look fancy. Actually, cup cakes are just plain cake only in cups. They aren't like a pound cake, just plain cake. I make them all the time.
They look pretty good to me.

What a wise man lol
