  1. Aww J that sucks that you guys are all sick. I was afraid to call ya the other day since I knew Zoe was feeling crappy. I didn't want to wake her up if she was sleeping. And thanks for the link. I was wondering what the name of that place was Anyhow this is my June plan 27th Annual Pedal Across Lower Michigan (PALM) Bike Ride Anyone else interested? Midwest people? JENNJENN? I am going to get a tag a long and take DD with me. DH has pretty much vetoed his attending but what can ya do?
  2. Happy New Year y'all!!!!!
  3. I would like to take credit for that but someone else posted it awhile back. I am just a follower lol.
  4. You are very tricky, oh wise one. Thanks for the tidbit of info! That certainly makes things easier.
  5. FYI if you copy your original post and paste it over the smileys it makes editing much easier =)
  6. Kashi Go Lean cereal is pretty tasty.
  7. I personally do think it boils into calories in vs calories out but it works in a complicated way. Metabolism definitely plays a part also. For example let's say you eat 800 calories per day, and let's assume that this puts your body in a "starvation" situtation. This slows down your metabolism so as you are only burning 1 calorie per minute for a total of 1440 calories per day. That is a 640 calorie deficit. Now let's assume you eat twice as much for a total of 1600 calories per day. You body is getting all the caloires it needs and your metabolism is fuctioning optimally. Now you are burning 2 calories per hour for a total of 2880 calories for the day. That is a deficit of 1280 calories. You are actually burning more calories and you are eating twice as much. Now I am certainly not a doctor or nutritionist or anything like that but this is the only way it makes sense to me that I lose more weight when I eat more calories.
  8. Hey all. Hope you all had a Merry Christmas. Sorry for going on hiatus for so long, I had a lot of shizz going on. I have been pretty much a food and exercise wreck. No working out. Eating huge amounts of crap. I had to sit myself down after Christmas and get real honest with myself. It is pretty obvious that I am addicted to sugar. Addicted as a drug addict is to his drugs. I can't just have a little bit. This was really brought to light when I was polishing up a huge (think 1 lb size) bag of M&Ms. I was so sick to my stomach yet I kept popping those bitches in my mouth as if I could not get enough. I have been doing a lot of research on it and it seems that I just have to get myself off the stuff. I am now on day three and feeling mighty shitty. Pretty much everything has sugar in it. It basically fucking sucks. But I am not going to be able to lose anymore weight if I don't get off the candy crack. I have read that it takes about 4 days of withdrawal and then on the 5th day you feel much better. Well after today I will be halfway there. I really think I understand now how difficult it is for an alcoholic. Anyhow that has been my past few days. I have enjoyed the biking adventure, and I am way jealous of y'all down there. Ican'y wait until it warms up here.
  9. Another thing I want to add is that as you get smaller it takes less weight to make a difference in how you look. When I was 280 I looked pretty much the same as I did at 250 but now that I am under 200, 10 pounds makes a difference.
  10. I have the complete opposite problem. I think I look exactly the same in the mirror as I always did, yet when I see photos I see a huge difference.
  11. Dear Green, You are forgiven =) Sincerely, Someone who enjoys your posts very much
  12. He won't be charged. From what I have read he is actually only 18 and she is one year and 11 months younger than him. She would have to be 2 years younger than him for him to be charged.
  13. Yeah I am a regular fertile myrtle lol. I did just want to point out that it could be an accident and maybe not stupidity. Though it does just feel sooooo much better without one
  14. Awesome job!!!!!
  15. Okay huge huge huge NSV for me. I got a gift from my bariatric coordinator in the form of a skirt and shirt and knee high boots. The boots went over my calves. The skirt and shirt were a bit snug but fit and were a SIZE 12!!!! Holy effing shit.
  16. I think you have enough time for a betta. But not for any live animals. Oh and thanks for the Bling. I fucking love it. I am only done shopping for the kids. And for my SS though I suck at being a santa because it is not in the mail yet. SO it may be more of a new years gift.
  17. It's my dick on a stick!
  18. JC I see you peeking in on here. Thanks for the gift. It is sitting on my desk at work. I love it!
  19. Yeah but even if she could, she wouldn't since she does bleed scarlet and grey. lol
  20. I am always up bright and early. I work at 5am....blah. Sorry you are having trouble sleeping. I recommend Sleepytime Tea. Gooooood stuff!
  21. Who is to say she wasn't protecting herself? Condoms breaks. pills can fail. Believe me I have *two* wonderful surprises due to both of those things. Luckily I was a little bit older than Spears when this happened to me. And none of it had to do with my parenting. I have wonderful parents that did teach me about the consequences of my actions. I think most parents today would be absolutely shocked to find out what their kids are doing behind their backs. They would be shocked that their 16 year old is having sex, which unfortunately has become the norm lately. Most parents are going to think "not my baby".
  22. Stef that is awesome that you flip houses. That is something that I think wold be fun as hell to do.
  23. If I lived any closer I would be in Ohio and that WOULD be tragic. I bleed Maize and Blue.
  24. What 300 miles is not close enough for ya? lol I am the klutzy one here. And if you are referring to my superman off the bike that was about 2 miles from my house and I had to do the walk of shame home. Awesome job on the running J.
  25. I am clueless here. On more than one occasion I have had friends tell me that a guy was flirting with me. I think growing up fat kinda made me immune from noticing anything like that.
