If you gradually turn up the heat, the lobster doesn't notice the difference until it's too warm.<br /><br />You add a pound or two, and you don't notice. Gotta sit at that desk for 10 hours a day, then sit in the car for 2 hours a day, then you have family time, and who has time to exercise? And suddenly nothing fits and your doctor is telling you to Lose Weight Or Else. Then you have to undo the habits of years. 'The chains of habit are too weak to be noticed until they are too strong to be broken.' Or that's what it feels like.Evelyn M.

The worrying thing I feel is I am seeing it more and more on the roads. These devices are great in small measures but most don't use it that way leading to a mindless state.<br /><br />All the best <br /><br />Rab Rabhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13351256234806096898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3978906014166411621.post-14233677442256700972016-11-25T15:22:56.039+00:002016-11-25T15:22:56.039+00:00Yes, I understand about piling on the pounds.

I too, could shed a stone or so but usually go to serious lengths to cut down if it gets any more than that.<br />I've also noticed how huge people are getting as I people watch too and some can hardly walk.<br /><br />I've also noticed that a chunk of our society don't bother about anyone else, as long as THEY can get on a bus that's all that matters. Hence the shoving and elbowing out of the way. It's good to know that not everyone is like that though.,, some are really kind.<br />Maggie xMaggie Mayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06183886005936250976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3978906014166411621.post-22613692110803786672016-11-22T16:25:33.484+00:002016-11-22T16:25:33.484+00:00Phone usage on highways should be banned.

I hope the one you mentioned learned something from the encounter with the blind lady.<br /><br />I agree with you about obese people. You would think their pride would deal with the situation. I remember when I was overweight (nothing compared, though) feeling most uncomfortable, and bad enough to do something about it.
