King of Queens
Did anyone catch the season premier of King Of Queens last night?
Very funny show. But also very true. Doug - the husband of the show - lost about 40lbs over the break, so the show revolved aroudn his weight loss. People were complimenting him left and right. Lost his weight on low carb diets Carrie - the wife of the show, a little thing, very fit, got jealous. At one point makes him a plate staked w/ about 8 pancakes and a jug of syrup. She wanted to sabatoge his diet because she was jealous. It was 1 hr long, and filled with all kinds of diet and jealousy comedy. Now, shall we write into the show and tell them they need to do a show about Doug being sick and tired of people asking him if he's "happier" and how did he do it, and all the other stupid questions that we deal with? |

I don't watch sitcoms, (except old Seinfeld reruns), but I've realized that a lot of those types of shows have big fat, ugly men and pretty little underweight women. How unreal can ya get? I guess it's not ok to be a normal woman on tv. Martha |

But the point of this show this week was about weight loss, feeling good, and then the other person in the relationship trying to sabatoge... |

Seriously? I see this everyday. The wedding I was just at featured a stunningly lovely vibrant gorgeous healthy 23 year old bride and an overweight red-faced 38 year old groom on his third marriage. I guess it's not ok to be a normal woman on tv. Well, no, it's not. In fact, if you're an overweight woman on TV is actually makes the news. Think of "Mimi" on the Drew Carey show or Carolyn Manheim. It's like a HUGE deal! I just realized that all people on TV have their teeth bleached. I'd never noticed it before. I recently added teeth bleaching to my beauty regimen as a result of this newfound awareness. Wendy |

When I was first injected, it really became apparent how many actors andTV news hosts used Botox! Wendy |

I don't bleach, I don't have to, my teeth are pretty white to begin with. But also, because I was born w/ 2 teeth missing and have a bridge of porcelien, I can't bleach or it would be very apparent I've got the bridge because the porceline won't bleach. |

Wow, that's interesting: one of my kids is missing a bicuspid: just isn't going to come in. We're trying to keep the baby tooth as long as possible. Is that your situation? I'd never even heard of this until the orthodontist showed me the x-ray of the teeth coming in: tooth tooth tooth no-tooth. Oops! Anyway, I've got a crown on a front tooth covering a chip and the bleaching hasn't been seriously deforming enough to make the crown appear, so I posit that either the bleach works a bit on the crown, too, or that the difference isn't startling enough to make it show up. I feel like it's been good for my gums: not only do I do a good job of brushing and flossing before I put on the bleach, but the bleach is a peroxide solution and it sort of fizzes in the gum line and I figure it's killing off bacteria. :-) Wendy, smiling brightly |

I'd never even heard of this until the orthodontist showed me the x-ray of the teeth coming in: tooth tooth tooth no-tooth. Oops! Yup - that's pretty much what happened with me. Although they knew about it when I was 4 yrs old. I had ear and nose problems. (had tubes in the ears and constant nose bleed issues so they took my adnoids out) and in the prep for the surgery they did xrays and found that hey, look, there's no teeth forming up there. So, they never came in. It took 4 yrs of braces to pull the other teeth appart in order to have the bridge made. The dentist that did the work said that if I were a boy, they'd use the braces to pull all teeth forward and just grind down the canine teeth to make them look like a bicuspid. But in girls, its more important to have the pretty smile so they wanted to leave the canine (or whatever their technical name is) and then put the bridge in. Its been in for 17yrs now without a problem at all. Although my current dentist wants to redo the bridge and put in a new one w/ the porceline backing instead of the metal backing I have now.

I love hearing those interviews of older people and when asked, what's one thing you'd like to tell the younger generations, the answer is "Floss". |
