Zenor77 what school in Washington is he interviewing ... with? I have grown up here in Washington, if you don't mind my asking that is.

CWU in Ellensburg. We've looked up the town online and it looks super cute! I have family in Washington too (Bellevue & Bellingham) so I wouldn't mind living there. The Pacific Northwest is so pretty too.

I remember that feeling really well! I picked out my ring because DH was living in a different town, but I didn't know when he was going to do it. He had planned to do it on Thanksgiving and then got impatient. So, I got my ring the day before Thanksgiving. May I suggest that you don't have a long engagement? Unless you can handle stress. I'm really glad we planned the wedding in just over 5 months. Ohterwise they would have had to commit me! Lol. When it happens will you post a pic of the ring? Oooh, how exciting!

Time for bed, but I wanted to post my cals before I went to sleep. I hope everyone had a great day!

7 years!? Isn't that common law marriage by now? lol Jason and I were engaged by 6 months, pregnant by 9 months and married by a year. I always wonder what it would have been like to spend a few years with just the two of us, sans kids. <sigh>

Hi everyone!

The last few days have been great managed to keep calories under 1400 everyday and water intake has been 96oz per day. I was even able to enjoy a bit of ice cream at our staff bbq this week. I step on the scale tomorrow I hope I was able to lose, It has been a while since the last time i saw a major move on the scale.

Tinky~ After having a wedding I would suggest elopement to everyone! We did it on the cheap, but I would have been happy with a dress, my DH, and our family at the beach and going to a restaurant after. I wasn't the only one with opinions though. Lol. I got my end result, so I was happy either way.

Coolmom~ We were engaged quick too. After 7 months and married after 1 year. Sometimes you have to snatch them up quick.

Yep we knew each other for 6 months, dated for 6-8 months, engaged 6 months (married for almost 11 now) and wished we had eloped! We had a smallish wedding and everything was homemade (we both worked at mcd) but the stress of it all killed me....but then again anytime I deal closely with my family I get stressed lol. Have fun, but just a word to the wise, it all depends on if you like the "idea" of a wedding.

Good afternoon everyone, it finally cooled down here, and i walked last night for an hour again, I'm statring out the day pretty good i ate a bowl of Kashi Lean crunch for breakfast and a grilled chicken salad for lunch. Hope i can stay on track the rest of the day.........

I also only knew my hubby for a short time. Met him march 18th. He moved in by June. married him in Aug. of 78". Thats 6 months from the day we met, till we married. (just short 6 days).
I will keep him. he is a keeper.
Heck, after all these yrs. who wants to teach a new dog, tricks.
He's all trained.

we did not have much time alone either. married aug 11-78
had ds. sept. 79.
13 months before son was born. My family all just knew I was preg. when we got married
we gave them 2 weeks notice. and got married by the local judge. He just couldn't wait.
Yes, I would do it again.

Reading all this talk about marriage..... my first date with my husband was on Sept 2, 1989, we got engaged on Oct 31, 1989 and married on May 26, 1990. 6 months total. We've been married for 17 years!!

Everyone thought we were crazy for getting married after only dating for 6 months, but somehow, it worked! We were married 8 years before we adopted our son (who is now 8 1/2) so we had LOTS of time together, which I think is a good thing. Then again, it would have been nice to become parents a little earlier in life. I'm 46 with an 8 year-old, but I LOVE it!

Worked out at the YMCA today. I did about 35 minutes on the treadmill and 10 minutes on the bike. I'm really proud of myself since this is really my first week "exercising" regularly.

My husband and I have been together for 11 years (married 10). We actually knew that we were going to get married that second weekend we met. We got engaged 3 months later.
