<p>Yes I've read all 3 of the "50 shades" books a few weeks ago.Incredibly poor writing but great subject matter.They are a massive hit here in the UK also.Incredible to think that the author couldn't get them published and they were originally a free download online.</p>

<p>I think it's all those endorphins racing around your brain. Like after having too much sugar or alcohol. We can only take so much "pleasure."</p>
<p>Speaking of...has anyone read "50 Shades of Gray"? It's a run away best seller here. Targets the number one fantasy of women of all ages - submission.

<p>Speaking of...has anyone read "50 Shades of Gray"? It's a run away best seller here. Targets the number one fantasy of women of all ages - submission. Goes a little to extremes but the atmosphere is definitely erotic. Many sex therapists & feminists have been discussing it. It just is hard to be politically correct in the bedroom. Therapists have said that for a long time they thought this fantasy would go away as women gained more power in relationships, etc. But it remains unchanged. Newsweek did their cover story on it; it has been so huge. Men apparently have lots of different fantasies, this being one of them & not the main one. This is pretty much it for women.</p>

April 20. It's been a couple of very rough weeks, with me behaving/living like an addict... These last few days I've had lots of therapy. My mind and heart are back on track. It's funny, it's almost like waking up after a long sleep.

Hi all,<br />
Been an even busier than usual month. I'm normally pretty good at coping with multiple pressures but really felt like I had reached my limits. Anyway just come back from a spa break where I went all on my own. Ahhh. Peace and quiet for a few days. Most relaxing. Back to the grind this morning. Glad to hear you are doing well on here. Jules- congrats on the new home. Roxanne- Iglad to hear you are feeling better. I know just what you mean by that sweet taste craving. It's so hard to…

Been an even busier than usual month. I'm normally pretty good at coping with multiple pressures but really felt like I had reached my limits. Anyway just come back from a spa break where I went all on my own. Ahhh. Peace and quiet for a few days. Most relaxing. Back to the grind this morning. Glad to hear you are doing well on here. Jules- congrats on the new home. Roxanne- Iglad to hear you are feeling better. I know just what you mean by that sweet taste craving. It's so hard to break. Have you discovered Rooibos ( redbush) tea yet? Full of antioxidant , caffeine free and delicious. I have it in multiple flavours and drink litres of it every day. Nice to catch up with everyone. Off to feed the hungry hoards at mine now. <br/><br/><cite>roxanne said:</cite><blockquote><div><p>Thanks. I used to do that but had forgotten about it.

<p>@Roxanne, Try freezing grapes; they taste even sweeter when frozen, and are a great alternative to artificially sweetened snacks.</p>

<p>I'm a little better. Saw nutritionist & have started some of her homework assignments. For instance, have given up all Splenda, which I have used for years. This has been very hard for me and I'm suddenly craving anything sweet. I kept my sweet tooth under control by drinking Splenda-sweetened tea & coffee all day long. She also wants me to increase all my anti-oxidants. So I start the day with a green drink - I put a hand full of raw spinach in blender with about a cup of…</p>
<p>I'm a little better. Saw nutritionist & have started some of her homework assignments. For instance, have given up all Splenda, which I have used for years. This has been very hard for me and I'm suddenly craving anything sweet. I kept my sweet tooth under control by drinking Splenda-sweetened tea & coffee all day long. She also wants me to increase all my anti-oxidants. So I start the day with a green drink - I put a hand full of raw spinach in blender with about a cup of frozen dark sweet cherries. It is nice & sweet and you don't taste spinach. I am to add dark leafy greens to every meal, but spinach & broccoli are the only ones I like. Also I'm adding flax seed oil, more garlic, tumeric, ginger, green tea & coffee. And I'm to cut back on all animal protein, replacing with plant based protein. This week I'm working on Splenda & smoothies.</p>
<p>Today I am on a conference call (with 100 other volunteers) with Michelle Obama. She is such a role model for me.</p>

<p>I am SO happy for you. This sounds like a big first step in a grand new adventure. I do hope you stay in touch, though. How often will you get to the library?</p>
