[Leenie]

Hi Rachel, and welcome !! the only time I get a headache is when I cheat, the next day could be a killer, but thats about it. So glad you found us

[StarPrincess]

Rachel - I got withdrawl headaches for the first couple of weeks until I got through 'carb detox'. Not fun, but when you recognize it for what it is, it's bearable.

Leenie - you're totally right about the jealousy thing. But not in the way you think. The friend whose husband I'm being accused of cheating with is that girl that kissed me and told me she loved me about a month ago. Remember that? Well, I just found out that the girl that started this whole mess happens to have an 'interest' in my friend. So this got started because she wanted to keep me away from HER - not from him! OMG - my life has turned into a frickin' soap opera. Of all the stupid things!

Morti - look up the recipe of Oh **** Yeah in the side dish section. You'll love it!

Star - you wrote something yesterday about going over the carb count w/veggies and having it not affect weight. How far of a spread is that? There are times at dinner that I kinda want more salad, but don't because I don't want to go over my count. Splain please.

[StarPrincess]

Carb count still matters. What I meant is that it doesn't matter if you go over your 3 cups a day when you're on induction. The thing is that a lot of the veggies we eat traditionally are low in nutritional value. What I've found is that if I pay attention to the nutrients my veggies provide and eat a lot of them (still paying attention to carbs), then my body is really being fed. When that happens, I don't eat as much (no longer have to count those calories, because I just stop at the right point), I don't get cravings, and I lose weight faster.

I've never really payed attention to my carb count. I know I eat more than my 3 C allowable veggies. But I figure that's ok cuz I need what nutrition there is of them

OMG Star. Your life really DOES sound like a soap opera. I don't envy you one bit. So does the friend know this evil doer is after her body?

I got off my tush and did tae-bo. I feel like letting my body cool down and doing it again. Getting some agression out like that was GREAT! I just imagined I was beating on *inserts name* ....and it was SOOO much better workout

Wow it sure was busy while I was at lunch!

Rachel: Wow Beacon Hill. How nice. I am in the burbs. I live in Ashland. Do you work in Boston? Probably....who would live in Boston and work outside of Boston I didn't see that show last night but some friends at work are talking about it.

Star: OMG! It was her? Geez, those people just sound like they have issues to start with .....I would stay away if I were you.

Brenda: Sorry about your dd....but she will feel better by tomorrow on the meds. Hope you get some sleep yourself tonight.

Morti:

Marie: You are so right....why is it that we go after the woman in these situations when it is the guy that is responsible ultimately...I think anyway. But I have to admit if some woman was fooling around with my husband I would have to deck her Then do something worse to him.

Love: The veggie thing is a problem for me....I usually have salad so I know I go over 3 cups a day. I figure there could be worse things that I am eating and like Star said as long as my carb count is below the 20 grams then it probably won't hurt too much.

[StarPrincess]

Yup. Total soap opera. My friend does know about the evil one's 'motivations' which is why she wasn't the one to flip out. The people with the issues aren't the ones that are my friends. It's all just so remarkably stupid. *sigh*

I am feeling better, though. Being able to talk to you guys about things really helps. Thank you!

[lady_adnerb]

I think I'm glad I'm not beautiful. I don't have those problems. NOBODY hits on me.

Glad you're feeling better Star!

[jane8760]

Brenda: Now is that anyway to talk. You are beautiful to us

[marie.]

Before I got married ( er....the last time, not this time) my fiance's ( now ex's) brother who was a notorious player, told Robert that he thought he and I had "hooked up" at a party in the past and spent the night together ( never happened....never would)--Robert asked me about it and I threw SUCH a fit!....Told his mother on him, slapped Robert for even THINKING it could be true...it was OOOgly....in the end Rick had to make a formal apology to us....in front of his Mom's....hehe....
