stella - i've been drinking a lot more water than normal but it's probably not equalling out to the 8 glasses a day.

I know for a fact to go through at least 2 and a half normal size Ozarka water bottles a day. I drink one in the morning at my office desk then one in the afternoon at my classroom desk and maybe a half in the evening when I take my meds before bed.

Thanks for the advice!

I'm totally down for exchanging addresses. I love getting mail, that isn't coupons or bills!!!!! I think it would be so much fun. I have a huge card collection, and want to start getting in to making them, so this would be wicked motivation for that and loosing weight. So let me know if I can join in on the pen palness.

I'm up a half a pound this morning, which sucks coz today was my official weigh in day. I was hoping ot be down 10 pounds by valentines, but I'm currently sitting at 5.8 right now. Don't think I'll be dropping 4.2 between now and Sunday. I just want to see some of this weight gone. For the last 10 days, I've been fluctuating the same 2 lbs, I just want it gone. I'm sure part of it is that I have been going to the gym, but I've been eating perfectly OP so, c'mon scale just budge a bit!

I was venting to my mom about the cost of the bridal shower and she said that she'd pitch in and help me out. She also reminded me that i have a credit with one of the airlines, so my flight out will at least be free. So things are looking a bit better there. I went home and fixed the internet and cable. The wireless router had become unplugged, so all I had to do was plug it back in and the TV had been switched to channel 4, do the digital cable wasn't showing up. I was relieved that it wasn't a big deal to fix. But seriously roommate, you couldn't have troubled shot those on your own!?! I had to leave class, and pay for parking twice to plug in a cord and change the channel on the TV?

You guys are a chatty bunch, so no time for personal at this moment, but I will I promise!

Stella- The snow has slowed down here a bit... I have an SUV so I'll come get you instead

Shan- glad things are looking up

Can someone make me get on the treadmill...its such a scary thing... I hate it

I've been studying for the LSAT all morning however I'm not in a good mood..
1. I havent heard from the Russian all day (very strange)...and he was weird yesterday... grr I hate boys
2. How is it that a test that isnt until June completely full at every location in the whole state of Maryland... I can be waitlisted however that doesnt gurantee that I will actually get a testing location and even then the stupid place could be 100 miles away... nonsense...

I've only eat 175 calories so far today....and its after noon

stellarosa27 · 02-10-2010, 12:40 PM

Haley - please. I'm going insane. Feral just had to make me brush my teeth on gchat. I'm becoming some sort of recluse. OH, and eat something!

Shan - yay! Glad things are looking up.

Alright. 20 more minutes of just doing nothing, then I'm going outside, shoveling what the plow has done to my car, and then I can have lunch and shower and paint. Really.

Feral · 02-10-2010, 01:55 PM

Okay ladies:

If you are interested in doing a card exchange. Please PM me your first and last name and your address.

If you don't feel comfortable PMing me for whatever reason let me know and I will PM you my personal email address.

We'll take a vote as to whether or not we want EVERYONE's addresses at once or whether we want to have random names each month later.

I'm so EXCITED!

3FC Penpal? I'm down. If y'all want to add me on GChat: jess7286[at]gmail.com

Haley - Did you see if you could take the test in DC? Or Arlington, VA? I'm pretty sure there are test centers there. And yes, June is a very popular time to take it. I would call the LSAC though and see if they could squeeze you in somewhere closer to you.

stellarosa27 · 02-10-2010, 02:43 PM

Alright Haley, I ran. And fogged up the windows in my apartment. Tee hee.

shortandfluffy · 02-10-2010, 03:01 PM

I am on board for the pen pal thing! I love getting mail that isn't a BILL!

I am a newbie in here, is that still ok?!

aliquot · 02-10-2010, 03:02 PM

I knew going to that stupid campus health center wouldn't do any good. All she did for my green gooey snot was give me some saline to shoot up my nose. Rawr.

However, the nurse weighing me DID comment that I lost weight~

HaleyisLove · 02-10-2010, 04:01 PM

Ali- Yay! but not yay about stuff to squirt up your nose...that crap gives me bloody noses... anyways...hope you feel better

Stella- I need to be told to go brush my teeth too..I know so gross...its almost 4 but with nowhere to go I honestly didnt even think about it... proud of you for running...and I wanna paint... I'll be right over... I have about 20 blank canvases... inspiration...please.. and I did finally eat... scrambled eggs and a sandwhich thin and an apple

Jess- I checked all of DC, VA, and MD... I know its a popular time however the test is months away...they should open up more centers and they have never had a person on a waitlist not be assigned one...I tried to call the LSAC but they are closed today...go figure... waitlist says I'll get a testing center within 100 miles of me... or I could just do the PA one and be certain... Stella you could come on a little trip with me haha...bc I'd have to stay in a hotel...

Feral- this is so exciting..reminds me of when I had a pen pal in elementry school haha

So I ran..and walked on the treadmill for an hour... felt like I was going to die but I didnt...which is sweet... my legs hurt really bad though... and I didnt like that while running I can hear my flabby body parts hitting and smacking eachother haha (ps I have never ever ever used the treadmill in the whole year that I have been dieting or exercising)

Also the Russian said I'm the only woman he has ever respected outside of his family... thats a good thing right? and he said hes sorry for neglecting me lately... thats nice too...hes super busy...hes in school getting ready to graduate... He's Russian... and Jewish so family is a huge huge thing for him and he is also studying to go to law school....

aliquot · 02-10-2010, 04:19 PM

Haley - Its not even like an allergy medication spray. Its a SALINE NASAL RINSE AND IT LOOKS DISGUSTING. YOU SHOOT IT IN ONE NOSTRIL AND IT COMES OUT THE OTHER. I AM REPULSED JUST BY WATCHING THIS VIDEO OF IT: http://www.neilmed.com/usa/sinusrinse_video.php

Also, I'm thinking about doing this crazy c25k thing. Any advice from anyone?

Chele615 · 02-10-2010, 04:25 PM

Feral ~ I think the penpal idea is definitely a cool one!!! I love getting mail that aren't bills or junk mail.

They dismissed us all at 11:30 this morning...and it just now starting to snow and stick (although the streets are still clear...just the driveways are covering up). LOL suckers

It would be kind of cool though if this just means that the snow sticks around later and maybe I can get a 2 hour delay out of this whole thing tomorrow morning. That would be great

I didn't want to venture out to the gym because I was worried about the snow, although I could have went for like 3 hours and still been home with plenty of time to spare. Instead I did 30 Day Shred, day 1 on demand and then read my book while riding the bike for 30 minutes downstairs. I actually might go back down in a bit and do another 30 minutes on the bike because the book is pretty good and easy reading! haha

HaleyisLove · 02-10-2010, 04:36 PM

Ali- I was told so many times to use a nedi pot or whatever...um ewww

aliquot · 02-10-2010, 04:39 PM

Seriously? Ughhh I'm so grossed out. If you don't hear from me again, I probably accidentally filled my lungs with fluid and drowned.

Edit - OK I did it. It was seriously a very unpleasant feeling. And my nose is still stuffy.
