Best wishes on your diet bet, Ramblin'. So glad you're feeling better.
Those push-ups were recommended to me by physical therapist when I had to see one for my shoulder after stepping into that hole on a walk and falling. (not at first, lol) I like the idea of 10 at several times a day, too.
The prunes for strong bones have not seemed to bother me in any way. Of course, I have no idea about quantifying the help personally - just have to accept the studies, which are very impressive. I'm up to 3 per day, getting ready to start 4, but it's not enough of a habit yet and I do sometimes forget, oops. Have noticed that the sun sweet brand is always fresh, but the WMart generic "great value" brand has poor packaging that will have allowed the prunes to dry somewhat, so I won't be buying those again. I pop them into a smoothie, or cut them into oatmeal or cereal, or, if it's a day I've forgotten them, just eat. The reason I like them IN something is that they can take the place of other fruits for sweetness, so that if I don't want too many calories that day/meal, I can regulate it.
