Jess- OMG healthy fried rice... please do share...

gave up on studying bc I forgot I need to watch last weeksn episode of Vampire Diaries

Jenny- CB is code for crush boy and crush boy is Stella's love intrest ...no one has names around here haha just like mine is the Russian ...you will catch on quick no worries

[aliquot]

Everyone has code names for their men around here?

I'm feeling more sick again today as opposed to yesterday when I felt better. I found my dumb humidifier and actually plugged it in in a vain attempt at making myself feel better. I'm also on mucinex and sudafed. I was also feeling sorry for myself today so I had a lapse in judgment and ate some french fries. Gah.

Also, since we were talking about heels earlier...how the heck do you manage to wear them for more than 1 hour?! Do you get used to them the more you wear 'em because I feel like I get blisters no matter what I try.

[Jess7286]

Yeah, my man's code name is dbag. He's out of the picture. But things work out. There's a guy at the gym that I've been lifting with lately.

I'll post it when I make it for sure. I'm a huge fan of Pam so I use that instead of oil. I think tonight I'm going to make 2 dishes: tomatoes with egg; corn, peas and minced chicken. Pig out.

Aliquot - I think I just suck it up when I wear heels. If I'm going to be walking around a lot, I usually put a pair of flip flops in my purse for on the way home.

[JennyG]

okay! so I'll call mine The BF, does that work?

Well Stella - good luck with CB!!!!

Haley! Whats it like to date a russian?? I bet he's got one **** of an accent?!
and what was your game plan to lose 70lbs?? We pretty much had the same highest weight, can u imagine being back there again?!!? no friggin' way, right?!

Feral keep your head up about that test!! think positive!! AND I nearly died when you said "thats what she said" LOL!!!!

[shortandfluffy]

The only code name I have for mine is DH.. not very original.

Stella - at least your aren't 5'2" like me! My pants are always too long

[lissa9501]

i'll vary on my man its either hubby, dh or jerk it all depends on what he's done.

I can't wear heel that is higher than 3 inches. (Actually i've never tried and have no desire to try them on).
I can walk in 3 inches heels for 3 hours practically non-stop. But that's my limit.
Couldn't do more than that. If I don't have to be walking like mad, wearing them aren't too bad.
But still, I prefer my flat shoes lol. Great for walking and comfortable.
And yes, you get more comfortable if you wear them frequently. I'm the case. I've just started to wear heel not too long ago (maybe 2 years or so). In the beginning, I couldn't wear more than an hour with walking, but now it's getting better.

Jess7286 - OMG, you HAVE to post the recipe for the healthy fried rice! That's one of the things I miss most from my new healthier diet.

Feral - Step away from the Chinese food! It can't change the score on your exam

ShortandFluffy - Wow, 27 6th graders for an hour and a half is no small challenge The 6th graders were always my favorites - at the school where I worked, they were still pretty weird and immune to social pressures (not that I'd want to spend that long alone with them!). I'm afraid of 7th and 8th girls - they're mean...

And to everyone who hasn't ever had Sonic - soooo jealous of you!!!

So I have a new motivation - I'm going to be back in MI in May to do some wedding planning stuff/attend a big dance conference and it's the same weekend as prom at the school I used to work at, so I'm going to go chaperon that again They do it at the Henry Ford museum in Detroit and it's super fun - they have the whole run of the museum, plus they serve this gourmet dinner, plus chocolate fountains and all sorts of stuff. I'm hoping to be down another 20 pounds or so by then and I'm going to go buy a really cute/sexy dress to show off my progress to all my old teacher friends.

Clearly I'm totally lame - getting excited over going to prom at age 25...

[aliquot]

...I call my man something weird that would probably gross you all out but he thinks its adorable for some reason.

I found a PLUS SIDE of having a sinus infection and not being able to smell/taste anything... My roomie came home with mcdonalds and I can't smell it at all so I don't have any cravings lol. I couldn't even taste my own stupid dinner though so that kind of sucked.

[HaleyisLove]

I love heels and wear them a lot...out...but you will catch me taking them off

Jenny- I cut calories and started exercising day one... I now do an hour of cardio daily... I'm better now than I was about counting calories but I lost 50 pounds in around six months... took a break and gained 20 of them back... and then started losing again when I joined 3FC... in a year I've lost 70 pounds but that includes a 4 month break where I gained 20 back...so not too bad... You're on a roll you have lost almost 100 pounds...what do you do?
And you know what... its funny because I still feel like I'm there... I look in the mirror and I'm like where did I lose 70 pounds... my feet shrunk... Pants sizes havent gone down all that much...its hard to lose 70 pounds and still be fat...
The Russian does have a cute accent..... and I call him the Russian because his name is weird... we have a very long and ******ed history

Ali- Feel better...and now I'm totally curious about what you call your BF...
The Russian and I call eachother Peep... lol super stupid but I love it

[aliquot]

I feel like I'm not confident enough to wear heels either. I dunno, I guess i"m just not very fashionable? Gah. I feel like if I start dressing more...nice or trendy that people will look at me or think its weird because usually I'm in a t-shirt and jeans and sandals. Yeah, I've got some issues.

Umm. I dunno if I want to say it, haha. You will all think its gross/weird! Lets just say the word is kind of like peep. But...with less ee and more oo. :| Don't judge me.

[HaleyisLove]

Ali you call him poop? haha I just cracked up... I call people turds all the time but its not really a term of endearment

I want these shoes haha

[aliquot]

Yep. He's my poop. When we answer the phone we say "Hi poop!" to each other lol. I don't know how it started but I started replacing a lot of words with poop like...we were playing Beatles Rock Band at my mom's house and we started singing "Dear Poopface" instead of "Dear Prudence".

OH MY GOD ARE THOSE SHOES FOR SERIOUS?! Is it some kind of weird ballet toe shoe thing?

[stellarosa27]

aliquot - I knew this girl in college who called her bf that, it was soooooo funny.

Jenny - CB is the boy I'm going to marry. That is if I can ever make out with him again. I've put my friends on it for next weekend. They have a mission, dammit.

Feral - BACK AWAY FROM THE ASIAN FOOD.

Haley - Um, ow...

Smisen - I went to a prom at 26, I was still super excited

I love heels. Flat shoes hurt my feet, actually. I have a high arch, or something. Flip flops are the most painful things in existence to me. The trick is to get a thick heel, or if its a skinny heel that it not be too high and the placement is in the middle of your heel, not at the back of your heel.

Also, because of my height, its hard to find pants that would work with flat shoes, so I get regular pants and heels. I love heels.

[HaleyisLove]

Those are legit shoes...

The Russian started called me a Peeptoad...and it turned into Peep somehow and then I started calling him Peep... and yeah its strange very strange... and we use the word peep in place of all kinds of other words
