Alert the Media!


I realized today that I've turned into my pill popping Mother.
Granted, they are mostly supplements....But that is a lot to swallow, even if half of them are chewable.
Gulp.

I need to start saving up for one of these:
Are you a pill popper chewer too?


XOXO

    You should see my counter when I have to refill the pill holders weekly. Bottles bottles bottles. But like you, mostly supplements.

  2. CH made the comment that I take too much, so I asked him which one he wanted me to stop taking. His response: "Whatever you do, don't stop taking the Black Cohosh!" :)

  3. FIVE. I have five vitamin and mineral supplements, actually, pretty good huh? :)

  4. I take three different supplements, cranberry, probiotic and black cohosh. If I had to choose only one it would be the black cohosh! I'm about to start taking a multi-vitamin, too. So I'm up to four.

  5. You need to do what my inlaws did - get a lazy Susan and "spin the wheel of pills". :-) So far I only take three vitamin supplements, but I'm thinking about adding something for joints. Anything you can recommend? Looks like you have experience... ;-)

  7. Yes I am and I like that giant pill complex!

    I have a weekly flip-top one right now but I get so annoyed when it's time to refill it. I need a monthly one like that, although everyone would laugh at me. Maybe I'll hide it.

  8. Nope. The only one I take seems to be missing from your cache. A probiotic.

  9. Holy Smokes Batman! I take a calcium/D so I don't get brittle bones...but that's it...I try to eat all my vitamins in food. I had to have a pill holder for handing out chemo and all the assorted pills my daughter took for 2.5 years...that cured me on being unorganized!
    Happy Thursday!

  10. YES---we both take lots of supplements and vitamins.. Have for years!!!! The 1000 gram Vit. C pills seem to keep us from getting a cold (at least most of the time).. That is good!!!!

    We don't take much prescription meds --although GE takes some for his painful back problems.

    Hugs,
    Betsy

  11. I started popping pills before I could ever walk, so they tell me. I guess my Grandma kept all her pills on the counter. I crawled up there and helped myself. I guess that explains a lot.....

  12. That looks like about the same number of supplements that we take. I blame that on my Dad -- he's always taken a lot of supplements and will be 101 in August. I guess they work.

  13. When you get our age, you will need an industrial strength pill box!

  14. I don't take any. I'm sure there are things I should be taking. Hmmm...

  15. Whoa, now that is a great pill container. I've never seen one so big!
    I probably should consider supplements, but I'm lucky if I can remember to pop a calcium pill once in awhile.

  16. I do a monthly box. What a timesaver--with the iron supplement and the daily aspirin and the vitamin and the melatonin . . .

  17. i forget to take my pills, lol

  18. Yes, I have a little box on the bathroom counter. I start (& end) my day with those pills! Midlife...it's not for sissies!

    ReplyDelete
  19. LOL Oh yes I am. I even have an embarassing number of pills bedside. I've turned into my Granny!

  20. I only have to take one pill a day and couldn't even remember whether or not I had taken it so had to get one of those little days of the week container, put one in each slot. If the slot was empty... I took the pill. LOL Sheesh. I am going to be in a world of hurt as I age and need to take multiple pills per day.
