[QUOTE=TheSleeper;986058]Well when I cook bacon I filter the left over fat and save it in the refrigerator. It makes a great facial cream and my dog really likes it!


OMG so great!! My pup would love that too...

I feel I've aged greatly in the last year or so...I sometimes wonder if it's the Copaxone. It's created so many craters where I inject, I wonder if it's causing problems in the rest of my subcutaneous fat cells. I am beginning to look like my mom who smoked, ate junk food and sat all day. That's not my style, but I am beginning to look like a hag. I look in the mirror and pull my face towards my ears and I look like I did in my 30s...wish I'd appreciated my looks back then

Part of me believes in aging gracefully, but I believe those of us with MS struggle so much that the stress alone causes premature aging of our skin just as it's probably doing a number on our internal organs...I guess we should all concentrate on being able to do what we can in terms of staying active and cooking a lot of bacon
