OKay, I have to jump in here as y'all are taking about mojos.

Anyone remember Richard Pryor, in his stand-up, would talk about Miss Rudolph putting a mojo on his a$$?

Can anyone remember what that mojo made him do? :blink: Prize for the winner: a turkey dinner.

Don't remember about Richard Pryor and his mojo whammy....

I'll approach any and all mojos with great caution, but, alas, I have an intense need to check things out, you know, like going into a pitch black room after hearing a noise from there..... :P

I think your mojos have all returned and you have to much brain fog to realize it!!!! You are too funny to have missing mojos!!!

Patti, I grew, too, but not to where I was before kids ... :( Used to be a solid C, now I barely fill out a B. If I had any fat on my stomach, I'd have it transferred ... :lol: I've used masking tape, but duct tape?? Ouch! And what fills out the bottom part that you've taped up?

This just requires more duct tape, and a little more engineering. It might be a bit painful to remove :( (imagining a duct tape corset :blink::o ) :huh:

I'm glad they advise using medical tape as I can attest- DUCT TAPE HURTS! Did it one year for a Bridesmaid of Frankenstein outfit, came home cosmo'd and had to take it off. Owwwwww-chhhh! At least I was a little number than usual! :P:ph34r:

If it involves duct tape, I'm the man for the job. (The mention of boobs, does tend to get my attention :ph34r::o )

You must understand that my father, although he did not invent duct tape, has certainly mastered its use in a wide variety of off kilter applications. He has passed down his wealth of knowledge to me ( I feel like a Jedi knight :P ).("...may the TAPE be with you!" "...Richard use the TAPE!")

I could go on about boobs too, but this is probably not the place :P

That is my little Madeline (sniffley-sick today :( ) and me. We had a bonfire last night after 2nds on dessert :blink:

Maddy got flattened by a year-old Lab "puppy", so I scooped her up. Mary thought we looked cute, and the sky was amazing, so she took the pic.

Have you tried balling the tape up? :blink:

Sorry, I think I might have bumped into my mojo somehwere last night (who'd have thought such a thing would linger at the in-laws? :blink: )

Well it is nice to SEE you! Yes, very cute pic.

Um, your mojo lingered at your in-laws'? that is crazy.....did you see mine there? :blink::lol:

So, I should make the duct tape into a BALL, and then tape it on? yes, yes, I see, that should look lovely and natural. ;):lol:

I don't know what your mojo look like? Can you provide some detail? Any identifying marks? Tattoos? Horrible disfiguring papercut scars? Duct tape rash :o .

I never said it would look natural, only enhanced - do supermodels look natural? :huh: Oh, yeah, if you're from planet T&A in the Silicone galaxy :)

You could try MULTIPLE LAYERS of tape if you think that might look more natural. I was going for speed and efficiency (the hallmark of any true duct tape fix :D )

OK Susie- I had a long talk with the BIG GUY (he has a Wife too but I thought as a guy he'd be more understanding about this particular matter) upstairs and you have been approved for a boob job. No duct tape for you but he said keep it to a C. :P

Hmmm, that's the secret to how the stars keep covered ... I did a search using the info you posted for the last link and found it ... you also can use it to act more as a bra, but it doesn't add to them, it just pushes them up. Keeps you from sagging, well, and you can also use it for another reason ... like when it's chilly out. :rolleyes:

Richard -- enjoying this? I'd like to see you explain this conversation to your wife!!! :lol:

No explanation necessary. This info will undoubtedly come in handy at some point, besides, how do you think MacGyver came up with all that stuff? He obviously eavesdropped on women for most of his adult life and stored it all away for headier times... :)

Besides boobs are one of my favorite subjects - my wife knows this :P I could pop some popcorn and be here for a looooooooooooong time :D (to lend technical assistance of course :huh: )

Tee hee! You are all saying boobs. Boobs. Boobies!

Alas, the only thing I've ever tried was the duct tape, but it worked pretty well. I needed them smushed together for cleavage. :P I wrapped the stuff all the way around my back. It was the strongest bra I've ever worn! Tthat's for sure. My boobs weren't going anywhere. :P

Also, uhm, does not make for romantic removal in event of romantic interlude! B):unsure:

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By Jillian83 · Posted

      He is. Which makes everything even more difficult. I’m not a believer in “staying for the kids” but I have nowhere to go and it’s not just me, it’s me plus my babies. We live in a beautiful place, lots of land in the country and me and the kids love the place we’ve called home for their entire lives. But Im seeing that he’ll never change, that my kids deserve a happy healthy Momma, and that staying in this as is will be the early death of me. Then I look at the scars covering my entire body…this disease and the chronic stress I’ve been enduring for years that tell me I’m no longer beautiful and no one will ever look at me with interest again. I try self care, try to give myself grace so I can just start loving myself enough to gain strength but the slightest sparkle in my eye and skip in my step attracts his wrath and it all comes crashing ten fold. Life is just absolutely railing me from every single direction leaving me wanting to wave that white flag bc I don’t feel like there’s much hope no matter what happens.

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By Jillian83 · Posted

      Hi, I was recently diagnosed with Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis after years of suffering without answers. I lost my mind. I lost my job. I lost so much time. I lost Me. Conventional doctors are opulent come near me and the one who did sat across the room, misdiagnosed me, pumped me full of steroids which collapsed my entire hip for 6 months. So without answers I began my holistic journey. Fast forward a couple of years and still struggling with a mysterious whole body itchy, crawling “skin hell”, perfect teeth now deteriorating, thick hair now thinning rapidly and no more than a day or 2 at most relief….An acquaintance opened up a functional medicine practice. Cash only, I found a way. Within a month tests clearly showing my off the charts gluten allergy/sensitivity as well as the depletion of vital nutrients due to leaky gut and intestinal damage. dermatitis herpetiformis was more than likely what I was experiencing with my skin. I was happy. I thought this is easy, eat healthy Whole Foods, follow the diet restrictions and I finally get to heal and feel confident and like myself again very soon! 😔 Supplements are very pricey but I got them and began my healing. Which leads to the other major issue: not working, stay at home Mom of young kids, entirely financially dependent on my man of 7 plus years. He’s never been supportive of anything I’ve ever done or been thru. He controls everything. I’m not given much money ever at a time and when he does leave money it’s only enough to possibly get gas. His excuse is that I’ll spend it on other things. So my “allowance” is inconsistent and has conditions. He withholds money from me as punishment for anything he wants. Since being diagnosed, he’s gained a new control tactic to use as punishment. He now is in control of when I get to eat. He asked for proof of my diagnosis and diet bc he said I made it up just to be able to eat expensive organic foods. Then after I sent him my file from my doctor he then said she wasn’t a real doctor. 😡. I go days upon days starving, sometimes breaking down and eating things I shouldn’t bc I’m so sick then I pay horribly while he gets annoyed and angry bc I’m not keeping up with all the duties I’m supposed to be doing. His abuse turns full on when I’m down and it’s in these desperate times when I need his support and care the most that I’m punished with silence, being starved, ignored, belittled. He will create more of a mess just bc I’m unable to get up and clean so that when I am better, I’m so overwhelmed with chores to catch up that the stress causes me to go right back into a flare from hell and the cycle repeats. I’m punished for being sick. I’m belittled for starving and asking for healthy clean water. I’m purposely left out of his life. He won’t even tell me he’s going to the grocery or to get dinner bc he doesn’t want me to ask him for anything. I have no one. I have nothing. Im not better. My supplements ran out and I desperately need Vitamin D3 and a methylated B complex at the very minimal just to function….he stares at me blankly…no, a slight smirk, no words. He’s happiest when im miserable and I am miserable.  this is so long and im condensing as much as I can but this situation is so complicated and disgusting. And it’s currently my life. The “IT” girl, the healthy, beautiful, perfect skin, perfect teeth, thick and curly locks for days, creative and talented IT girl….now I won’t even leave this house bc Im ashamed of what this has dont to my body, my skin. Im disgusted. The stress is keeping me from healing and I think he knows that and that’s why he continues to keep me in that state. He doesn’t want me confident or successful. He doesn’t want me healed and healthy bc then how would he put the blame of all his problems on me? This journey has been hell and I’ve been in Hell before. I’ve been killed by an ex, I’ve been raped, robbed, held hostage, abused beyond nightmares but the cruelty I’ve experienced from him bc of this disease is the coldest I’ve ever experienced. I’ve wanted to give up. Starving and in tears, desperate…I found a local food pantry in our small town so I reached out just saying I had Celiac and was on hard times. This woman is blessing me daily with prepared gluten free meals, donations, educational info, people who know this disease and how they manage life and the blessings just keep coming. But it’s overwhelming and I feel like I don’t deserve it at all. He just glared and I know he’s going to sabotage it somehow. I don’t even know what to do anymore. I’m so broken and just want peace and healing.

      @Colleen H   I am just curious,  when you were tested for coeliac disease, did the doctors find out if you had any deficiencies? Sometimes muscle pain can be caused by certain deficiencies, for example, magnesium, vitamin D, calcium, and potassium.   Might be worth looking into having some more tests.  Pins and needles can be neuropathy, again caused by deficiencies, such as iron and B12,  which can be reversed if these deficiencies are addressed. In the UK where I live we are usually only tested for iron, B12 and vitamin D deficiencies at diagnosis.   I was very iron anemic and supplementation made a big difference.  B12 was low normal, but in other countries the UK's low normal would be considered a deficiency.  My vitamin D was low normal, and I've been supplementing ever since (when I remember to take it!) My pins and needles definitely started to improve when my known deficiencies were addressed.  My nutritionist also gave me a broad spectrum supplement which really helped, because I suspect I wasn't just deficient in what I mention above but in many other vitamins and minerals.  But a word of warning, don't take iron unless blood tests reveal you actually need it, and if you are taking it your levels must be regularly monitored because too much can make you ill.  (And if you are currently taking iron, that might actually be making your stomach sore - it did mine, so my GP changed my iron supplementation to a gentler form, ferrous gluconate). Lastly, have you been trying to take anything to lessen the pain in your gut?  I get a sore stomach periodically, usually when I've had too much rich food, or when I have had to take an aspirin or certain antibiotics, or after glutening.  When this happens, I take for just a few days a small daily dose of OTC omeprazole.  I also follow a reflux or gastritis diet. There are lots online but the common denominators to these diets is you need to cut out caffeine, alcohol, rich, spicy, acidic food etc and eat small regularly spaced meals.   When I get a sore stomach, I also find it helpful to drink lots of water.  I also find hot water with a few slices of ginger very soothing to sip, or camomile tea.  A wedge pillow at night is good for reflux. Also,  best not to eat a meal 2-3 hours before going to bed. If the stomach pain is getting worse, though, it would be wise to see the doctor again. I hope some of this helps. Cristiana
