    A bloke sees a sign in front of a house: "Talking Dog for Sale." He rings the bell and the owner tells him the dog is in the back garden. The bloke goes into the backyard and sees a black mutt just sitting there. "You talk?" he asks. "Sure do," the dog replies. "So, what's your story?" The dog looks up and says, "Well, I discovered my gift of talking pretty young and I wanted to help the government, so I told MI5 about my gift, and in no time they had me jetting from country to country, sitting in rooms with spies and world leaders, because no one figured a dog would be eavesdropping. I was one of their most valuable spies eight ! years running." "The jetting around really tired me out, and I knew I wasn't getting any younger and I wanted to settle down. So I signed up for a job at the airport to do some undercover security work, mostly wandering near suspicious characters and listening in. I uncovered some incredible dealings there and was awarded loads of medals. Had a wife, a few puppies, and now I'm just retired." The bloke is amazed. He goes back in and asks the owner what he wants for the dog. The owner says, "Ten quid." The bloke says, 'This dog is amazing. Why on earth are you selling him so cheap?" "Cause he's a liar. He's never done any of that stuff."

    A woman went up to the bar in a quiet rural pub... She gestured alluringly to the bartender who approached her immediately. She seductively signaled that he should bring his face closer to hers. As he did, she gently caressed his full beard. "Are you the manager?" she asked, softly stroking his face with both hands. "Actually, no," he replied. "Can you get him for me? I need to speak to him," she said, running her hands beyond his beard and into his hair. "I'm afraid I can't," breathed the bartender. "Is there anything I can do?" "Yes. I need for you to give him a message," she continued, running her forefinger across the bartender's lip and slyly popping a couple of her fingers into his mouth and allowing him to suck them gently. "What should I tell him?" the bartender managed to say. "Tell him," she whispered, "There's no toilet paper, hand soap, or paper towels in the ladies room.

    A business man got on an elevator. When he entered, there was a blonde already inside who greeted him with a bright, "T-G-I-F." He smiled at her and replied, "S-H-I-T." She looked puzzled, and repeated, "T-G-I-F," more slowly. He again answered, "S-H-I-T." The blonde was trying to keep it friendly, so, she smiled her biggest smile and said as sweetly as possibly, "T-G-I-F." The man smiled back to her and once again, "S-H-I-T." The exasperated blonde finally decided to explain, "'T-G-I-F' means 'Thank Goodness It's Friday.' Get it duuhhh?" The man answered, "'S-H-I-T' means "Sorry, Honey, It's Thursday."
  13. Thanks Telly! Yes, it is! I can't wait to see the 240's!!! All this cardio and weights must be paying off. Not to mention the elliptical. What is a good Multi-Vitamin that I can take guys?
  14. C 250 (- 115 total, - 4 this week) FINALLY! some weight loss here!
  15. I just read this and I have been freaking out!!! With ALL of the reports of recent bat bites in Houston, I have been SO scared for you. Thank God it was a false alarm!!!
  16. As I sit here at my desk I feel like a million bucks. I love the way my heart feels, I love the way I don't run out of breath... BUT, I still look at myself as a 365 lb fat girl! I look in the mirror and see the same person that has always been there. I can't tell that there is 115 lbs gone. I love my body, but I don't "SEE" it. Until, like Donna said.... I see a picture. I am definitely not scared of getting skinny, but I just don't see that when I look in a mirror. This is a great thread, really made me think for a minute!
  17. You read my mind Donna! I am eating the heck out of it right now!!! YUMMY!!!!
  18. You are beautiful girl!!! You look SO much different than your avatar! That man is HOT!!!! You 2 make a great couple!
  19. Thank Gawd that was a joke... I was thinking man, Tricia is a freak :confused:!!! Good one!
  20. Atkins is not a NO CARB diet. During the Induction phase you should eat no more than 20 carbs, but no where does Dr. Atkins say to eat NO carbs. I think you should do what your Dr. says. My Dr. wants me to eat Protein, veggies and if I have room, some carbs. I don't try to totally eliminate carbs from my diet, but they do not sit well with me, and they are the reason I was so fat in the first place. There are good carbs and bad carbs, which I am sure you are aware of. You should follow what your Dr. suggests.
  21. I think you would be an awesome trainer Telly!
  22. First of all I would just like to say that I am so sorry that you had to go through something like this Misfortune. My thoughts are forever with you. I have never read anything so disturbing as your story. Second, to the others that were jumping on Misfortune for telling her story... gimme a break. I don't even know this person, but my heart goes out to her and for you to say that she can't bad mouth the Dr. that did this to her is BS. I be damned if I have a surgery and almost die and don't tell the whole world about it. She had every right to. I don't care if your Surgery was in Mexico, U.S., or any other place. I wouldn't touch this Dr. with a ten foot pole just because of this horrible story and you can tell from her post that she was simply stating her story, and that we should all do our research. THANK you for sharing this with me!!!! Misfortune!
  23. I work near I-10 and Barker Cypress... I go to the gym at Fry and Saums. My cousin and I get there at 5:00AM, you are welcome to join me
  24. Way to go Kathy!!! That is great news!!!
  25. I'm still LOVIN'!!! I don't know you... but there is TONS of support here. Don't know if I can help you much... but I am here!
