I remember that my ex's family freaked when we named my son Damien (cause of "that" movie) but according to some name books it means throne of god, heavens only knows I might have chosen differently if I had known that!

I came here looking for information on someone and found them. Then I got to reading the boards. Though I am not a former or current JW (never have been hence the name neverthere) my ex's family is/was.
I have found a board here that accepts me, listens to me, likes me (I hope) and gives me quite a chuckle sometimes.

What Vitamins/Supplements do you take?
by ScoobySnax ini recentley read that cod liver oil is the new wonder "drug" apparently it wards off cancer, strokes, heart disease and helps alleiviate feelings of depression.
(true).
also milk thistle is an excellent addititve to take, as it helps repair and rebuild healthy liver tissue from the toxins of modern life (especially alcohol !

Being a chartered herbalist, I really know I should take my supplements but most times I dont.
The only supplement I take on a daily basis is 4-5 bottles (personal size 591ml) of Diet Coke.

What worked for me and my JW ex-inlaws is to display all my books, that is my books on the paranormal. Then they would try to study with me, then I would basically tell them HA, don't think so!
That and knowing that Arsenic smells like raw almonds, you would be surpised how bringing that up at dinner, especially during dessert will stop people in their tracks!
But then again, I have a very very VERY morbid sense of humour!

Hi Mary, what part of Ontario are you in. I am in Ontario too and I have been using Weight Watchers, doing it all on line. You can go to their canadian website log on, weigh yourself, count points on line, chat in message boards and the best part is no weighing yourself in front of others.
PM me if you like,
Diana
