    Greetings biggrin

    I try to eat one everyday.  They are filling and good for your heart.  They are binding but as long as you eat other fruits with it.  biggrin

      Hey dear Jay how are things going with you? I am surviving.  This is my survival stage.  I should create a board game about menopause.  cheesygrin  Think my vertigo has gone finally.  Things aren't upside down when I wake and the nausea is going.  I can sleep flat instead of sitting up  cool so there is hope.  So guess I am not dying afterall.  rolleyes  xxoo

      A banana tree sounds very cool by the way.

    Hi mrsmerm

    i am laughing here as i have just bought a banana tree 😊

    i dont like bananas but i wanted a tree..

    think they are suppose to be good for you .. Take a while to digest i think .

    i know some personal trainers dont recommend them ..

    but my other half likes them

    Hi Dottie,

                       yes I love them but have frequently seen articles about them not being helpful if you are trying to lose weight, I wondered why?

                                               biggrin

      There is some disagreement in the dieting world as to whether or not bananas have a place in a weight loss diet.  Some claim that bananas are too high in carbohydrates and cannot aid weight loss. Others suggest that bananas are a high nutritious food and in fact may help to lose and maintain a healthy weight.

      if you enjoy them i would just eat one ...

      Hi MrsMerm

      i admire you doing  that.. I really do..

      Trouble is when you stop exercising and you feel wobbly it is hard to get back into it..

      i use to do 300 ab crunches in the morning and 300 at night ..

      and now it hurts to do 100 ... 😧 with stopping for a while ..

      i do the chair dips okay .... The rest can wait u til its cooler here 

      i would love a good friend to go to yoga or something with in the same boat, oh i miss a good friend 😕

      Hey dears,

      This site is a godsend to get information but I have stopped looking now and I do feel better thanks to Jay.  The B vitamins did the trick.  My vertigo is thankfully gone but still wee suffering premenopause stuff.

      Now that I feel better I am off the couch more and putzing/cleaning.  It's not good for your health to dwell on your problems.  I try to be on here as much as I can so I can still irritate Jay and Marlene, my buddies. hehe. cheesygrin
