  9. when i moved out with steve i moved home with my parents...they have 2 dogs..1 is an alaskan malmute VERY territorial dog and its just not good to have two male dogs like that together...(not my house so i say whatever makes my parents happy) sooooo every night i make them some rice with hog jowl and mix it with their dog food and take it out to them....then i sit and make sure lucy gets enough to eat (she gets sidetracked with playing) and then i get up under the tarp and pet and love them then i call calvin and sit out there while i am talking to him so they have my company...usually an hour and a half a night...sometimes more! i live a high profile dont i!!!!! its get right cold down here and i have weighed myself AFTER i put on all my layers (1 pair long johns, 2 pair jogging pants, 1 pair corderouys, 1 pair jeans, 2 thermal tops, 1 sweatshirt, 1 fleece, 1 coat, 2 gloves, 1 hat, 1 ear muffs) and my gettup weighs 15 LBS!!!! thats is only if its below 30 degrees though...i LITERALLY look like the little boy from a christmas story who 'cant put his arms down'!!!!! i should take a picture of that someday.... they will be getting to come inside again soon because on 4-1-05 i am moving to wasghington state! and yes i am in the country! i love it!!!! well not this week my moms dog...nettie mae belle...got into it with a skunk and the skunk got the best of her (sprayed her) soooo it has been a lil stinky lately!!!!
  10. well i never got married but i lived with a guy for 5 years and our relationship ended a year after WLS...we had lots of other problems...it would have happened regardless... they say if you have a strong relationship from the begining you should be fine if there were problems to begin with to seek counseling or there could be trouble. good luck!!! and the pic is SOOOOO cute!!!
  11. i love my doggies...the used to live in the house and get spoiled with me now they have a ghetto housing development...they have a 20' tarp over the top of the corner of the fence...tarps along the side to block the wind and their doghouses are under the tarp also...and the area under their is loaded with hay....SOON they will have a home again!!! bear (the brown one) has been my dog for 6 years...i love him sooo much! star(the big black one) i have had for 5 years and lucy (little one) was a stray that i fell in love with...she is the silliest dog...i have had her ALMOST a year!
  12. ***Shelly, now I gotta make deviled eggs. That sounds so good right now.*** well they are protien!!
  13. friday: breakfast: 4 deviled eggs (2 whole eggs) snack: almonds 1/4 cup another snack: SF chocolate 4-5 pieces lunch: tuna 1 can w mayo dinner: who knows i am in the mood for steak so maybe a strip?
  14. almost any site that you join as a message board this will happen with. obesity help's website is the same way...i am 'southern bandgirl' on their site and if you type that in it pulls up posts...i have 'some dark hollow' TN as my city and state... if you come up with a screen name no one will ever associate with you then you are safe. michelle
  15. the only thing that can really be done is to use a screen name or nickname...mine for instance is shellyj...my real name is michelle and my last name is info i chose not to divulge. someone would have to know the nickname given to me by co-workers at my old job and know that thats the screename i chose. you probably shouldnt be using your real name anyway...there could be a weirdo bandstalker somewhere just waiting in the lurches... michelle wouldntyouliketoknow (lol)

    *my* dr says they are ok...other say NO COKES DIET OR NOT!! i find that i can only drink them when i dont have restriction. if i have restriction it just causes pain and i am not a fan of pain...the soda sits in your pouch and bubbles (expands) and thats what hurts me. i dont ever really desire them anymore...
