<![CDATA[Peanut Butter]]>I like chunky peanut butter. Would sometimes add jam, but having it plain with toasted bread…great way to start a day.

I think 3 yrs might be too long for those above 50?

I work on the assumption that basic screening is enough, and if I don't have any reason to check more thoroughly, I won't. I find that too many people get drawn into the follow-up checks which turn out to be unnecessary. The human body wears out eventually, so no point trying to keep it in perfect condition too long.

mks do u remember those prc health checks for visa renewals at Ha Mi Lu, SH or SGH Blk 3? they were super detailed. More detailed than RMG or Parkway's lifestyle screenings that can be very frightening. They scanned every part of your body and drew many tubes of blood from you.

Not where I was! The checks were so casual and quick - I think as long as you a breathing you'll pass! They took blood, but not sure how good their checking is.

LOL. Happens to me all the time. Heart rate will shoot up very fast even though I am not panting. All checks shows no problems but Docs say to be safe, make sure I wear a heart rate monitor when exercising, don't rely on my level of fatigue cos my heart rate and level of tiredness don't seem to tally.

Last check, everything is within normal. But I have not been exercising regularly this year so can see the cholesterol reading and resting heart rate creeping up.

Mine something like 'skipped' if i m not wrong..so the more worrying outcome may be blockage that's why went for the colored injection (iodin?) and scan.

I never run and do very little of any exercise, so when I did a treadmill test a few years ago, they made me stop very soon! On the other hand, compared to my husband who is a diligent runner, he has higher cholesterol, gets sick more often and has more aching joints! So who is \"healthier\"?

I also dont exercise..touchwood till recent reports still ok..whenever we go get reports I m more ganjiong of my dh's report that's why scan through mine at a fast rate when doc explained ok, normal range. He once has high cholesterol then luckily stabilised so dont need medicine. Usually get reports on fatty liver πŸ˜“

OT: i wonder if SAHMs go for annual health screenings? FTWMs will get it for free annually...it's quite disturbing to see your sugar/cholesterol levels/blood pressure levels, etc. fluctuate as u age...

sometimes ignorance is bliss...just indulge in all the glorious food and don't need to abstain!

I used to go for health screenings every 3 yrs as a SAHM once I crossed the 40yo mark. Last month, I did a very no-frills one at my workplace and am still OK for the things that were checked. My BP is higher than it was, but still in the low \"normal\" level (I was always borderline low when younger); my cholesterol has actually fallen a bit as my HDL has dropped while LDL is about the same (overall cholesterol is still high, but it's a \"good\" high).

My spreads at home are olive oil spread, marmalade and crunchy peanut butter (for me), kaya (for husband) and cream cheese (for kids). The kids will eat whatever is available. We are boring eaters.[/quote]I think 3 yrs might be too long for those above 50? I love English marmalade and lemon curd to bits. But can't seem to finish a jar on my own. my dh & ds don't hv a sweet tooth. that's why I don't bake at home.

I like clotted cream as well. They go well with Four Leaves' raisin scones, fyi πŸ™‚ :drool: :love: But it's extremely fattening!

my kids & hubby loves peanut butter a lot too but it tends to lose its flavor very fast ;( I prefer garlic butter spread 😜


How fast is fast? Anyone else has this problem?

PB taste won't change if it's not expired yet. but i think for conserves, seafood spreads and pate, u must absolutely discard them x days after opening cos smell/taste will change.
