And it looked quite tasty... for those of us that don't mind a bit of
garlic overload... (G)   Lemon's also good for cutting through mucus...

And your dentures make it harder to chew things... and you discover more
things that either you don't like or that don't like you...  And the
first slide into losing ground is often rather subtle... then it starts
going faster...  And it doesn't help that your body shape changes, and
the abdomen tends to be more pronounced, so one who has worried about
weight most of their life thinks that they are gaining instead of
realising that they are actually losing...
