I’m 46, but need to improve the way I dress. Thank you for the suggestions. I’m still wearing loud fragrances and makeup. I should probably tone it down some!

I don’t fly.

A floral fragrance not only gives some of us instant headaches but i also have allergies so it can really affect me, please think about others I once had to sit next to a woman that used so much perfume i got a migraine and it also affected my young daughter.

❤

Cathy, you are so friendly and you give really good advice.

There is a great brown purse by Coach called Empire. Comes in a larger size and a smaller size. Brown, black and in the smaller size, tan.

Cathy, I agree with everything you've said!! We might be the same person 😂. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. ❤

Agree with most of your comments, but life is way too short to skimp on my favorite perfume because it might give someone a headache. Fragrance is very subjective, and not everyone will love every scent. If folks don't like my aroma, they can walk away. I'll kindly reciprocate.

Yes, please do more of these. My husband is trying to lose weight and I’m on the hunt for recipes and ideas. This was great. Congratulations on your weight loss!

I started my HEALTH journey 2 years ago when I was told I was pre-diabetic and needed to change my eating habits. Yes, I was 100 pounds overweight, but my doctor wanted me to eat clean, get off all the sugary foods/drinks/processed premade foods, eliminate all the “white”- breads, pastas, rice, tortillas and switch to sprouted breads, brown rice, corn tortillas, very minimal pastas but use the protein enriched pasta- once I conquered those items, then she suggested incorporating low glycemic fruits and veggies and increasing my protein (no limit on type of protein, just trimmed meats and weigh AFTER cooking to about 6-8oz). I did all this in a 4 month period, and when I had my 6 month A1-C checked I went from 6.9 to 5.1! I also was steadily losing 1-2 lbs/week those first 4 months- I eliminated the sugary stuff the first month, the premade, processed and white stuff the next month, incorporated the low GI foods in month 3 and increased my protein in month 4 and continued to my 6 month follow up- then my doctor suggested I start walking every day to build up to 45 minutes a day (I started at 15 minutes the first week, 7 1/2 minutes one way then turning around and walking back to where I started and added 5 minutes each week), I started not just losing more weight, but I was starting to sleep better, had more energy, more focus (no more brain fog). At my 8 month follow up, she then suggested adding weight lifting 3 days a week. GAME CHANGER! After 2 years, I have lost the weight, gained necessary muscle, gained BONE MASS per my bone density scan from 2 years ago to now. I was okay with my weight gain throughout the years until that pre-diabetes diagnosis, I was complacent and thought that “I am big bones and my family is thick”, but my father’s side of the family all had Type 2 diabetes- they didn’t change the way they ate, didn’t try to change their choices or move, and I was determined I would stop Diabetes in my branch of the family. Did you know that a minimum of 30 minutes of focused exercise, whether cardio or strength training, stabilizes your insulin levels for up to 24 hours after the exercise? Did you know that lifting weights burns more calories at rest for up to 24 hours after than any form of cardio (walking, jogging, HIIT, etc)? Did you know that LOW glycemic foods not just slowly increases your insulin as it metabolizes but also doesn’t have a sudden crash (high glycemic food have a quick spike and crash and destabilizes your insulin levels)? Did you know proper protein intake of 90-120g per day if you don’t have kidney issues, keeps you fuller longer and so you don’t feel hungry for a few hours and decreases the feeling of hunger and urge to snack? The things I have learned not just from my doctor, but a clinical nutritionist, functional medicine doctor/physical therapist and my curiosity causing me to read and research. Do I look good in my clothes? Absolutely! But looking good was not why I started on my journey to being HEALTHY, it was all the health risks and that potential diabetes diagnosis that spurred me on. Being overweight, aka OBESE), is NOT healthy, regardless of the body positivity movement out there, being obese decreases not just the years we live but the quality of life in those years- joint degeneration (for every 1 lb overweight one is it adds an extra 4 lbs of force on your hips, knees and ankles which in turns means joint replacement), it puts an extreme burden on all our organs, especially our hearts, it’s one of the sources of depression and self-loathing and causes a vicious cycle of those two things and overeating. Sorry, since I lost 90 lbs over the last 2 years, I step on my soapbox, I am 62 and really encourage everyone to start focusing on their health, it’s never too late!!!!

Your eyebrows need to be redone-inner brows are too far apart :

I love leopard print! I saved a top and pumps. I’m getting more! I love a lot of the fall trends. I’m not a play person, but it’s not as big in FL, where I live, either. I’m 5’ 2” and and apple shape too. Keep the videos coming!

I just bought a nice soft bamboo pants and top set for the second stage of my 24 hour flight . First stage is 7 hours then I’ll change for the 2nd which is 17 hour long haul flight.

Thank you for mentioning perfume. I can't be around any scented anything. Not only will it bring on migraines, it also activates my sinuses (runny nose and congestion) and, makes me nauseous. Sadly, people take it personally. They're unaware that many of us are sensitive to scents.

😊🎉❤You are always sweet & fun!! I have grey frizz so must try the products your viewers suggested!! Always enjoy your videos!!

Great video. I like getting my groceries home delivered but, sometimes they get the fruit and veg wrong (hubby likes a more greener banana and we never get that in deliveries) so now, I do the pantry stuff delivered and get the fresh stuff in person. At least it makes it quicker to get out of the grocery store, lol...In 2 weeks we are heading to Canada for 6 months so, I am looking forward to seeing all the different things over there..

I am in Michigan, when someone says trouser I think of pleated trousers whether it's a single pleat or a double pleat, with a wider waistband and belt loops, a good example is the aritzia effortless pants. Any other dress pants with a flat front I just call a flat front pant.

Great ideas - you have done so well - I'm sure you'll get right back to it!

Should address haircuts. Your doesn't look great.

missed you lately. good to see you

You look WONDERFUL! I have been awol I know but wanted to check in to see how you are progressing! Very impressive Cathy! Keep going! 💚

Hello, I totally agree with your tips. I would love to wear just studs diamonds or pearls but I have 2 piercings. What are your thoughts on leaving holes empty? Do you think that looks unfinished? Thanx

yes like hearing from you = wish my hair would stand out lol

What I cannot understand is to see young girls in very very short shorts , you don’t know is it underwear or shorts and they are going to seat on that seats!

A couple of years ago I was in the hospital for a heart catheterization, one of the nurses perfume was so strong that it caused me to have a coughing fit, which delayed my procedure. The doctor who was to perform the procedure, ordered the nurse out of the room and told her she could not work on any of his patients again, that she had been told before not to wear perfume in an operating theater.

I watch some women on RUclips who spray so much perfume on themselves that it’s not perfume it’s fumigation. I would never want to be in the same room with them. Some also spray it on their hair then complain about dry hair and breakage. Well dah.

Enjoyed your grocery haul.

You look beautiful!

Great advice! Thanks for sharing.

I enjoyed the video, I just found you recently, I will subscribe.

Wilma Flintstone was a fashion icon and trend setter in her leopard print dress! The look endures!

This is much appreciated!!!!! Thank you! You're a true inspiration 🥰

I like leather purses. I enjoy your channel

I don’t know when it seemed to be acceptable for your bra straps to show. I’ve even seen actresses at functions with their bra straps showing. False eyelashes should just look like you have naturally long lashes. I was recently at a restaurant and the hostesses false eyelashes were frightening. A lot of these girls look like they have tarantulas on their faces.

Thank you Cathy 🌻💐🌻

Loved this. I struggle with dinner and just the 2 of us.. I'm over cooking these days😂 so easy peasy is the way!

Thank you for the practical and excellent tips for air travel .

Oh i found those recipes below from your previous videos. Thanks ❤

Hi Cathy .where can I find your recipes? The pan fajitas and chicken stir fry, and orzo salad, fruit salad? Sound so good.. Thankyou for the inspiration 💓

I do like a clean looking nail (like the Ballet Slippers) but it's not flattering on my skin tone. My hands look better with a dark shade, makes them look less wrinkled! Totally agree on all the points!

This is a great video and I’m already making my list 😂. I’d love to see your smoothie recipe. Thanks so much!

Enjoy the grocery hauls and ideas for meals

Your evening charcuterie board is a really good idea. Thank you for sharing your tips.

Thanks for sharing your healthy grocery haul. It’s always good to get new ideas for healthy recipes or snacks. I congratulate you on your weight loss too!

I don't wear polish on my handnails, because I do so much work with my hands it doesn't last a day. But I do on toenails! First I do a foot treatment: seasalt and soda bicarbonate in warm water; scrub with a foit file; cut nails; wear socks for a while. Then clean the nails and apply base coat, 2 coats of polish; top coat. This lasts ar least 2 weeks. The current colour is a golden beige. My feet are tanned - I live in Sicily. Aged 71

I do like vests but don’t wear them because they aren’t made for women with large busts. They gape in all the wrong places. In Australia pants and trousers are the same thing. Trousers is an older term but the same so it’s like calling a dress a frock dress. It doesn’t make sense. I bought some beautiful Slingbacks from Vaneli at Nordstrom. They are rather expensive but definitely have excellent materials and workmanship and the really good things about them are that they have small block heels and come in multiple widths. I have wide feet but with Vaneli I find the medium width fits me perfectly.

Carol's Daughter makes a very good leave in spray conditioner that you can get at Wal-Mart. But the Pureology Color Fanatic Leave-in Conditioner is amazing if you're willing to spend a little more

This was interesting. I should be eating like this. And I will start. I know there is a farmers market in a city not far from us. I forget when it is. We passed a sign not long ago. They have them a lot down here. We live in the country. So there are lots of farms nearby.
