Do you have a friend who uses this term ALL THE TIME? Are you an offender yourself? I looked the phrase up on Urban Dictionary "A phrase tacked on to the end of any bigoted, biased, hurtful, wrong or simply stupid remark. The speaker tacks on the phrase with the intent absolving themselves of any guilt or argument over the statement."  
I never really noticed the popularity of this phrase until somebody used it on me.  I can't give a direct quote because I am still quazi friends with the person.  (Quazi?  I think I just made that up)  Well, anyway they said something pretty hurtful and followed it up with "Just Saying".  From that day forward, I have have been uber aware of its useage.  I hear it in daily conversations and see it often on Facebook.  I use it myself now, mostly to see if it provokes people or as an inside joke between the DH and I. 
Is there a phrase that irks you?  Tell me about it you big dork, Just sayin....

A new program...

Hey all, it's me, I'm back and I have news  to share!  I am going to be working with Dr Roizen on my weightloss.  Do you know who that is?  If not, are you living under a rock?     Google him!  Anyway, he has offered to coach me via email.  I have to send him my daily food journal and how many steps I take each day.  I also need to change my diet pretty significantly.  Some of the things I can't eat include trans and saturated fats, so no 4 legged animals and their fats.  No added sugars, syrups.  Only 100% whole grains.   This should be interesting.   I also need to work on reaching 10,000 steps a day.  I have to report total steps daily too.   Wish me luck!
