Paperclippy's engaged! Yay! Beautiful ring! I like how it's not traditional. Thanks for the idea with the veggie soup. I realized we've got a ton of frozen vegetables that have been around for awhile now. Maybe they'll be ok in soup. I guess I'll get my chef on this weekend.
mdchick Hey! This is a great place to be... welcome!
Lizzie: I am amazed at people who can run. I try and it's not so much that I'm out of shape that I can't continue, but, more the fact that my knees hurt. Well, maybe one day after I'm 50 lbs less... It is kind of a dream of mine to run an 8 minute mile, being that I've only ever run a full mile the whole way once in my life! Congrats on throwing away the extra dessert. I can't ever bring myself to "waste" food, but I think that would be better for me. Just as I was wishing I was single again, I read your post and I'm glad I don't have to deal with crappy boy confusion anymore. Wait a sec, I have a husband, of course I deal with crappy boy confusion! Just on a different level. Will it never end?! I hope you win out in the end!
Sugarbutt: I went bowling this weekend too! You did better than I--my goal was to break 100 and I was almost there, until the last frame when I got 2 gutters!!!
Fae: That is so awesome for others to recognize your loss! I can't wait for the day I can say the same! And don't worry--you're not the only one without a cell phone. I still don't have one and sometimes I feel like I'm the only one in the world. **PS to all, if you have a cell phone, HANG UP when driving! I almost got hit not once, but twice Friday by people on the phones!**
Jilly & Sugarbutt: I'm sorry that you're having freaky dreams. I don't think I'd be able to fall asleep again or be alone if I had a dream like that! I agree with Lizzie that our dreams are frequently (but not always) our brain's way of working through stuff. I've also heard it said (from Dr. Abbott on Everwood) that dreams are just neurological refuse. Totally agreed with most of the dreams I have. I hope tonight you each have peaceful sleep.
Gammagirl: I had to cut back on weighing myself everyweek because I allowed it to control my emotions too much. I do every other week. It also looks cooler when you've had a consistent loss for a couple weeks -- it looks larger when you do everyother week instead of every week. Just remember, it's not about a number, it's more about how you feel in your clothes.
As for me, I've not been doing as well with not overeating the past few days, but today so far I'm back on track! My happiest news is that last night I finished my summer quarter at school! I can have a social life now! I took one too many classes and just about wanted to kill myself from stress, but it's over, and I did okay. Next quarter, a little more laid back, starts Oct 3, so I can chill out, do some scrapbooking, and finally, clean my house after almost 10 weeks! Ewww!
Well, here's to all of you, I hope you all have a wonderful day!
WOW, the thread died for a little while there!! (Spoke too soon fuller! )
Well, I was up 1/2 lb this morning so I didn't get a loss for this week. And right now I'm ill because I'm anxiously awaiting the new Nokia 6102 phone from Cingular and they still haven't gotten it in yet...I spent my whole lunch hour dealing with them. If they still don't have it after work today I'm going to declare a jihad on them! (LOL...sorry, don't mean to offend anyone if there are Muslims on board...I was just reading about the jihad declared on Burger King so I've been trying to come up with something... )
Anyway, hope everybody's Thursday has been better than mine...later taters!
pretty quite around here todsay..... Where is everyone?? Just another boring day at work today... BLAH! I went shopping at good ole target, bought some cute plain long sleeve t's other than that nothing new here.
i took a pic of myself today well like 5 min ago and since i used this thing called a digital camera its now on my computer.... and i feel so fat llooking at it.... i am see all my imperfections.... now if the whole thing with the camera adding 10 pounds isnt true then i am really seeing how big i actually am.... kinda puts me in a depressed mood..... it really makes me think that i really just need to stop eating period but i dont wanna go back to my old ways.... gah what should i do to get over to the fat picture blues??????
Sugarbutt - I did the same thing yesterday, stop looking at them, the more you look the fatter you look (well that's how it gets with me anyway). I still feel a little discouraged from it, but I'll get over it, so will you. Go do a great work, I am going in a hour to do an extra bit!
Hi again everyone! Boy am I glad it's Friday. I have been working like crazy this week on one homework assignment! It was supposed to be due tonight, but they extended it to Sunday. That's good because I don't have to stay up until midnight working and then not finish anyway, but bad because it kind of ruins my weekend. :P
In any case, I have been relatively good with food this week (once we finished off the ice cream cake ), but not great (I had a three musketeers bar yesterday! ). This weekend should be good, the only "bad" food I have planned is a trip to an Indian restaurant with some friends. I'll probably end up having one other "bad" meal though (I have a feeling I will probably be out somewhere at lunch time and end up buying lunch somewhere).
This thread is crazy busy!! That's good though!
Paperclippy's engaged! Yay!
