    ReadySteadyGo got a reaction from brandyII in Bitching and Moaning and Stomping my feet...Little bit of a Rant.   
    Thanks Gibson. I can always count on you to understand me.
    I do go randomly to the gym, I try to make it two times a week. I don't usually. But once a week is better than I was doing before. I swim too. Not laps, just kinda bounce around the pool like a chubby weightless ballarina, and yesterday
    I MOWED THE YARD, the whole yard, and didn't even have any minor heart attacks, which honestly the last time I tried that before my surgery I had to take a 1000000 breaks my heart really was pounding and aching in my chest and I had to stop half way through. I think the mower we have now helps, but I also think it's the lack of the 35lb sack I was carrying around before.

    Before my surgery Paula Dean was my FAV. She reminds me of my Granny. Yes thats what I call her, I'm from Louisiana. She cooks like my Granny too.
    Now I like to watch Turning up the heat with Gavin.
    I've been really into cooking shows lately.
    Oh and Nukechick thank you soooo much for posting this. I called my mom and we compared favorites that we swore never to try again. My parents and little sister LOVE Outback's cheesefries, and I liked the blooming onion. I love Chili's chicken crispers. I didn't usually order them bc I try to stay away from fried things but now I have renewed my "baked only" commitments. Thank you.
    I copied and pasted this in my Feb 08 support group, I hope you don't mind. I wanted more people to read it.:cry_smile:

    ReadySteadyGo got a reaction from bama_belle in How can I block someone so I don't have to see their post   
    I would like to block someone so I don't have to read their post. I come here for support and her attitude and her rudeness really depresses me. I don't want to respond to her because she is so violtile, but her opinions and comments really irratate and annoy me. Is there anyway I could just block her?

    ReadySteadyGo got a reaction from mamato3 in Ouch! Hurt feelings!   
    Sorry I am a late, but I wanted to throw my thoughts in.
    First of all, I am sure your mother-in-law thought she was being encouraging, but it was an ass thing to say. I think you have reached a milestone and deserve to be proud of yourself. I know I am proud of you congrats and good work.
    Second, I once got asked when my baby was due at 170 lbs, which is below my goal weight. Don't worry about it. Some people are just ignorant. Personally I don't ask anyone about their pregnancy unless they are wearing a shirt with an arrow pointing to their belly that says "Baby in here, ask me about it" Because 9 out of 10 times you look like a rude jackass for making assumptions. We all know what happens when one assumes. I am sorry that happened to you. Dang Bubble bursters.
    And here is my most important point (to me) Does it make sense that my feelings are hurt? Probabley not--- Your feelings dont have to make sense, they are your feelings not your logic. You have every right to feel like you do. You let those feelings out girl. I am so glad you choose to come here and gripe instead of holding those perfectly justifiable feelings in and numbing them with icecream...which is what I have to fight with myself not to do.
    You go girl.

    ReadySteadyGo got a reaction from brandyII in Which celebrity do YOU think needs the Lap Band?   
    I never get to see E that much, but if I see it on I watch. I like "best week ever" sometimes they are a little too mean for me, but I am kind of a love everybody, accept yourself, don't be an asshole hippie. So I tend to disagree with any kind of prejudice no matter what it is. So when they get too mean I get offended. But without offense I guess this world would get pretty boring. It is the only thing that really offends me really, is meanness.
    We have season 1-5 of scrubs at my house and if its on all three, (me and my two roommates) watch it. It is like a staple on my tv. I love it. I think Zach Braff (spelling) is so funny. I think they are all funny. I love comedies. My tv is either on comedy central, or if I am feeling all indie I watch logo.

    We all have bad days. And good days. I hope today is a good day for you. It is for me.
    Queen Latifah is a cutie. I really like her image since she glammed it up a little, but I remember the old days like...what was the name of that show?

    Email seems so unformal, I think the email guidelines would do well for them. For you and for the future.

    ReadySteadyGo got a reaction from brandyII in Fat people in movies   
    Do you remember the movie with jack black? The one where he saw the big girl as gwenneth paltrow. She said everyday she wore the fat suit she wanted to cry because of the way people looked at her.
    Anyway, in that movie every chair she sat in she broke and she would just get right back up, get a bigger chair and keep eating. Like THAT would ever happen. That movie actually sickened me.
    Fat prejudice and jokes are one of the last form of accepted prejudice. Hopefully one day it will be elimanated too.

    ReadySteadyGo got a reaction from Ezma in An Open Letter to my Bathroom Scale-   
    Dear Jerk,
    You tease me. I thought the conversation we had the last time I came to visit would make a diffrence. I pleaded with you to move , to change. I can't keep coming back to the same old unsatisfactory circumstances. I bargained with you, rationalized with you, pleaded with you. I thought we understood one another afterwards.
    And, oh, you changed. I will give you that. You moved and I appreciate that. I think you must have misunderstood me, however. I wanted you to move DOWN not UP. I am offended that you didn't listen to me. I can talk and talk til I am blue in the face, but yet nothing seems to work with you.
    Don't be confused. I will move on. There are a lot of scales that would want me. Don't take me or my bathroom floor for granted or I will be done with you. Toss you in the trash with my empty cartons of soy milk and old cans of tuna. Don't think I won't. I deserve better. I am worthy of a scale that listens.
    Shape up or ship out. This is your FINAL warning.
    Thanks for your time.
