Confession Time! ((ABSOLUTELY NO JUDGEMENT))

I secretly judge people in this thread all the time, but never point it out because NO JUDGEMENT. (There has been much rolling of the eyes!)0

I took both my dogs to the vet to be fixed today. Tired of hearing my male pine and snivel over my female who came in heat and I have kept separated.
The confession: I'm having the vet cut his nails while he's out because he's difficult and makes me sit/lay on him to hold him down, while he's chewing on my arm, to trim them at home. My dog is such an a-hole. Even the vet said my dog was a bit on the psycho side, as I had to wait half an hour at the clinic and all he did was bark and snivel.
This same dog has been through obedience training, schutzhund training, and is still poorly behaved. It's like he knows he's wrong, but does it anyway.
I'm the dog person with an alarm on my trash can just so I can catch him digging in it and discipline the bad behavior...it doesn't stop him, but it does stop him from shredding it all over my house.0 -

And I'm a momma that does what she wants, when she wants, and still has time for my two year old.
I confess some MAJOR assumptions were made about a parenting life from some child-free individuals, and that irritates me because we still save, we still buy what we want. We can still have fun while being parents and it makes me sad how some child-free people see us.
I can see that happening, but I've also been on the receiving end of assumptions from friends who have children. I remember a friend of mine made a comment about if she had my life she'd never have an issues paying her bills and I just don't know how hard it is to budget for 4 kids. It took everything in me to not say "it was your choice to have 4 kids." Plus, the comment came from nowhere, all I was doing was making sure that I didn't forget to pay my student loan bill. I wasn't complaining about not having money. It was weird.
Your friend (ex friend?) is just a weirdo. I mean, I could have another baby RIGHT now and still only have a slight increase (more diapers, I have literally everything else) and live just the way we are now. Not YOUR fault she doesn't know how to live within her means!
And FTR, I'm totally chill with people not wanting kids. What I find enjoyment and fulfillment in isn't a universal thing and I think the majority of parents know that. You just do your thing, I'll do mine!
If that's the case, you must have a money tree in your yard. I had to pay for day care, before and after school care until my oldest was 13, clothes and shoes, activities in school, food, etc. And now I'm paying for college since my kids don't qualify for any financial aid for schooling. Yeah, if I hadn't had kids when I was younger, I'd be close to retiring by now. I wouldn't change it for the world, but I do know that it isn't cheap to raise kids and has most certainly changed the lifestyle I'm able to afford.0 -
I didn't realize it may be odd to talk and sing to your pets until I met my husband and he laughed at me over my conversations with my Siamese. The cat talks back! I know what he's saying. LOL0

this seems like judging people lol
I totally am. I broke the rules of the thread. Shame on me
It won't happen again. I'll adopt Ceci_O_K's method of secretly judging (you know we all do it) 0 -

My dog used to talk back to me. She would grumble under her breath & she had quite the potty mouth!
My parents made fun of me until they watched her and could see for themselves the attitude she had. You really could practically hear her saying those things.
I love my new dog, but she doesn't have that same attitude, that's for sure.

My dog is an *sshole, too.
You totally should have had their teeth cleaned, too, while they were out--our dog really needs it (her breath is horrible!) but I am too cheap to pay the $300 for anaesthesia alone (she's a Great Dane) for the procedure. I would totally use surgery or another procedure as an excuse to have the teeth done as well.

My dog totally throws sass all the time. It drives me crazy. She rarely barks (generally only at the UPS man), but she's always grunting at me. She's the first dog I've ever had, so I didn't know it was a "thing". But if people can't hear her do it, they must think I'm crazy when I chastise her for it

Confession: I talk to my dog like she's a person. And I sing songs to her all the time. Original songs about how awesome she is...
Love it! My old dog's nickname was Mu (pronounced "moo") and I would sing "Hey Mu" to her in the tune of "Hey Jude" by the Beatles. Somewhere in my mind, I think she liked it.
My dog is SO sarcastic. Okay so I talk FOR my dog......
ALSO, 1 Hershey's kiss and I am a goner i go back for 2nd, 3rds and on and on.0 -
Yeah that's happening too, they only charge $20 extra/each to do their teeth while they're out for the spay/neuter. I have two German Shepherds, both very large dogs (the male is over 100 lbs) so I feel you on the anesthesia prices! I took mine to a low cost clinic - not income based - and the totals are less than $200 each. Also had their distemper updated while they're there, kind of a one-stop-shop day.I took both my dogs to the vet to be fixed today.

Another confession, I'm thoroughly enjoying them being gone for the day and not under my feet!

Oh yeah, the Siamese ONLY likes me. He talks kind of mean to everybody else in the house. Haha!

I completed the 30 day shred on Tuesday so yesterday I "celebrated" with a slice of garlic squash & mushroom pizza (yum!!!), a bag of jalapeno kettle chips and 5 girl scout cookies. But that wasn't enough so I went out for drinks with my boyfriend and consumed a total of 8 drinks and inhaled 2 more slices of pizza. This morning I was super hungover and got Mcdonald's on my way to work. It wasn't even good. And I will most likely eat junk for the rest of the day. I was supposed to start another round of Shred today but that will have to wait until tomorrow 0

at the age of 26 (almost 27) i like to go to bed at 10pm so that i can wake up at 4:30 am. I can get a lot of things done at that hour. and I still get my 6 hours in.0

My ex and I used to have two cats who were brothers, Regent and Fagan. Regent had a poshy high-English accent and Fagan had a cockney one. (This really makes no sense, since we rescued them as feral kittens, so shouldn't both of them have been cockney?) We made up a whole scenario about how they ran a tobacco store in London and Regent was constantly chastising Fagan for smoking up the profits and knicking from the till. We would have updates at least once a week in which we would natter on in their respective voices about recent events while the cats looked on with expressions of boredom and/or derision. The ex got the cats. I sometimes wonder if he and the wife carried on with this tradition.2

Oh dear, I have quite a few.
Until about a year ago, I would (on a regular basis!!) eat a large Pizza Hut pizza in one sitting... plus two sides. Aaand a few hours later this was usually followed by an entire pack of Hobnobs or PopTarts. Both, on several occasions. Sure, I regretted it afterwards, but it tasted so good.
I get really embarrassed if anyone knows I exercise (???) so I purposely stay up until about four in the morning so I can try to exercise while my family's asleep!! Thankfully I'm able to get up at two in the afternoon, so it all works out in the end, hahaha. :P
I have three dogs and a cat, and they all have accents and 'backstories'. Interestingly, despite the fact that they're all from the valleys, none have Welsh accents... hrm....
Continuing the above, I like to read aloud to all my pets. Depending on their... personalities, I read them different books. So, Rocko likes classics (particularly Russian, German and French authors), Meg likes horror stories, Lilah likes crime and fantasy books and Mishkie likes books on linguistics. (Yes, I am THAT sad!!!)
Hehe, I think I might love my pets a little too much. Oh well, they make up for me not having any actual friends!0 -

My cat (Siamese too) and I have a lot of conversations.
Haha it's even worse now. After logging 2 servings of ice cream on top of everything else (I'm already over 3000 calories today and it's not even 2pm), I just quick added 380 calories because I was ashamed of logging the 5 Lindt chocolates I just ate. And I even drove to the store especially to get ice cream (but parked pretty far from the entrance because at least it burns calories right?).
I swear I have no willpower and I'm a food lunatic at that time of the month. I even got pissed because my mom wanted to taste MY ice cream. PMS is the reason I've pretty much maintained 3 pounds from my goal for 7 months.BodyByButter wrote: »I think tomorrow I will turn the lights on the tree, in silent rebuttal to all of the Scrooges here.

I half pretend I don't read English well aloud (I guess I could make an effort) so my husband has to read those horrible books my kids want to read.

I'm jealous of your desire to wake up at 4:30, especially with only 6.5 hours of sleep! I could accomplish so much if I did this, especially in terms of workouts. I'm simply too lazy and I will sleep until I HAVE to get up for work!0 -
When we order pizza I don't usually eat the pizza, I'm just in it for the cinnamon sticks.

I am relieved to know I am not alone in creating intricate backstories and silly accents for my pets!

I have some form of chocolate every single day, no matter what. I quit smoking 47 days ago. Gave up Diet Pepsi/Dr. Pepper a week ago and haven't had a drink in 4 days. I feel I deserve it.
I'm also hoping I'll be one of those people who drop weight fast from removing alcohol from their diet. However, I still try to stay within my TDEE range. I gained most of my weight due to my alcohol intake. I want a reward for stopping to be to look amazing again.0 -
I seriously just killed of a 1094 calorie Jimmy Johns sub for lunch... It was soooo good, but I feel really guilty about it.0

I am addicted to plain salted potato chips. I can eat a whole 5 serving bag at one time. So I have to just not eat them at all.
I don't even care if my MFP number is green, I just try to have my net calories under 2000.
I don't count "food in my body" as part of my body weight. So, like, if I ate a lot over the weekend, I know my increase in weight is simply because there is more food in my system.0 -

I sort of do this, except I will wash the crotch part of the pants in the sink. I wear used sports bras numerous times. I put them by the heater overnight to dry.

While we are on pet confessions...My husband was meh about having a pet, but I really wanted a dog. I talked him into it. I love my pup, but it is kind of annoying that now she and my husband love each other more than anything.
Sometimes I feel left out.0 -

I am not ashamed.
Then when you log your booogars, aren't you logging the cals twice?
LOL shifterbrainz!
