Confession Time! ((ABSOLUTELY NO JUDGEMENT))
Replies
-
I have a little work 'field trip' today. Have to meet with a colleague in the neighboring county. Trying to figure out how to fit a little gym time at lunch with that. Especially since, if I do it right, I can meet up with hubby at his gym.

Confession: I will NEVER like running. I've read people say that you'll learn to love running once you do it. I went through the police academy when I was younger/fitter and had to run a lot. I couldn't breath, I was always last, it made me feel sick. I HATED it. I wish I could love running but I just don't like it. At least I was proud of myself for doing it and improving but even at the end, it hurt too much to love (still couldn't breath either...).
I do like taking walks though so that's what I do.

Ie-no hitting,spitting,or swearing (loudly). We don't tease/bully/mock each other or our friends.
However, you may color yourself from tip to tail in magic markers,sport a Mohawk, ride a dirt bike, do "stunts" on the trampoline, wear your Halloween costume to the store,play violent video games, eat dessert every night, make gross jokes at the dinner table...etc etc.
I like you0 -
I've tried two of the Cold Stone Eggs. I really ended up liking the birthday cake egg, the fudge egg was okay but I probably wouldn't buy it again.0

No shame in that...as long as there is no shame in my infatuation with Rick Grimes from "The Walking Dead".

Two years ago, I couldn't run 1 minute without feeling like I was going to die. I'm running my first half marathon on Saturday. Firm believer in Couch to 5k.0 -

I like both of those guys... I'm infatuated with a lot of TV characters lol.
Confession: I signed up at a new gym last night. Wasn't going to work out there, but I had planned on doing a workout at home, but I decided to treat last night as my "last night without a gym membership" so I went home and sat on my butt instead.0 -

Between your username and infatuation with Rick...I might need to be BFFs with you.

I'm a little obsessed with Loki from the Marvel Cinematic Universe myself.

I did the exact same thing. I love to run now. No idea what changed, but it did.0 -

For me it's all context. If I'm having people over I don't like it if they turn up early, as I'm usually running around at the last minute getting ready and don't expect people early (although I know who might be). If I'm going to someone's house and accidentally end up there early I walk around outside or go to a coffee shop so as to avoid bothering them before the start time. I also generally assume (unless it is stated otherwise or there's a reason, like we are doing something at a specific time) that party guests are assumed to be arriving AFTER the start time, not on the dot. But if we are meeting in a public place/restaurant (which is common for me), I think being late is rude and being early makes no difference (since if someone wants to sit and wait to avoid making me sit and wait by myself, certainly no inconvenience to me!).
Heh, enough opinion on this?
I share this opinion exactly!0 -

Me too. I always said I would NEVER run.
When I started getting healthy, we had a pool at the gym at work, so I swam for my cardio. Then I hurt my shoulder lifting weights, so swimming was out & I started walking on the treadmill. Then jogging. Then I started jogging outside.
Now I run 5 miles every other day, and on run days I am giddy all day that after work I "get to run". CRAZY.

YES. ALL of this. People showing up early to my house stresses me out so much.Smores *drool*
Instead of a piece of Hershey's chocolate I've always wanted to try a Ghirardelli caramel square instead.
What an excellent idea...
Confession- I finally purchased and tried the Reese's peanut butter OREOS yesterday. The confession is that my husband and I laid in bed re-watching the Office while we snacked on them.

I'm incredibly annoyed by the way my company structures pay scales for various positions. I recently learned that I have people reporting to me who make significantly (I'm talking 35% in one case!) more than I do.
I haven't spent more than two and a half years without being promoted (during my 7 years with the company). It makes me think I should be less ambitious, so I don't keep getting plopped at the bottom of my pay grade.
Less serious confession: I like wearing polka dots and stripes because it reminds me of being little and pretending I was a leopard or a tiger.0 -
Because of this thread I had a snack of peanut butter and chocolate chips last night. It will happen again.0

I confess, while trying not to judge, that I am annoyed that so many posts on this thread have become novellas. There are several posts that are a half page long...and ain't nobody got time for that. I may just be cranky because I am trying to catch up since Thursday!0

I tear up in a lot of movies, but this one had me full on sobbing, like gross snotty crying. It's a good movie, but so heartbreaking if you are in any way an animal lover. I sobbed through pretty much the whole thing and for about 3 weeks after any thought or mention of it would have tears welling up. I've only seen it the once and haven't been able to bring myself to watch it again.
This is the movie that made me officially say "I will no longer watch animal movies". Not ever. Even now, the trauma hasn't faded. *sob*
I can't watch Blackfish or The Cove, also John Wick trapped me in a puppy murder scene, and while I don't cry, I couldn't stop thinking about it.
Confession: Us not having kids and rescuing cats & dogs instead has made us much more in tune with animals as sentinent beings. So much so that we can't eat beef anymore...or any mammals for that matter. Too intelligent.
(Fish & chicken , on the other hand...they're just walking/swimming food with a chip that helps them breathe, breed & flee from danger, lawl.)
First of all, thank you for your rescuing work! Second, I agree with your sentiments regarding animals, which is why I'm a vegetarian.
Thirdly (***disclaimer: this is not to try to change your or anyone's views) chickens are a lot smarter than we give them credit for: http://www.humanesociety.org/news/magazines/2014/05-06/who-you-calling-birdbrain-chicken-intelligence.html
I read this article last year and was impressed. Just wanted to share.0 -

I agree. Clear and concise, please.0 -
Although I have been aiming toward "more protein" in a vague sort of way for several months now, I just reset my macros (ooh, that just makes me sound so knowledgeable!) on here the other day. Looking at a big green number in the protein column does make me try harder.
It's a struggle, though. I don't eat mammals or poultry and I'm an unadventurous (and resentful) cook... I loathe all aspects of the process from meal planning to grocery shopping to preparation. When I'm on my own I tend to rely heavily on eggs, cheese, tinned tuna and frozen fish.
Unfortunately, what I REALLY want for supper tonight is a huge bowl of porridge. But I'm sure my muscles won't be happy with porridge for supper. *sigh*0 -
They say not to drink your calories but I really enjoy drinking calories! I make my own coffee drinks so they're healthier (but still full of fat... LOVE cream) but occasionally splurge at Starbucks. And I'm not sorry! Well, not much. Lol.0

After losing 81 pounds I have slowly been rising....
FML I got so lazy and loved my addiction to...sweet ice teas and coffee!!! I've gained 15 pounds since then and I know when I am ready I will go back and all it takes is one step at a time. I joined a weight loss challenge program near my work to slap me into reality and today is day one!! I had to put my 'money where my mouth is' cause this is not ok! Weaning off sugar is doable and I did it before and can kick my butt back to gear again! 0 -
I get totally creeped out by the animated advertisements on websites where they have people moving; doesn't matter if they are dancing, jumping, etc. MFP has one with the guy's head bobbing around. Eeeeek! My stomach turns when I see them.0

I had the biggest crush on the character David from the show Rosanne forever......
I am super sensitive to animals, and I just READ on wiki about the movie Hachi and that made me tear up...I will be skipping that movie!! On a related note, my mother had a mink coat, I hated it and not only yelled at her often about it, but refused to be seen in public with her if she wore it. When she died, I threw it in the trash.....it was worth a few thousand dollars....blood money, I wanted no part of it!
I am super tired from Easter weekend and having a houseful of teenagers....I JUST decided I am gonna skip the gym today and rest for a couple hours before my appointment this afternoon......I really need a nap!0 -
Confession:
My 12 year old daughter has started taking ALOT of pictures with her cell phone. This weekend she took more pictures of me than I've had taken in years. Seriously, it was only around a dozen pictures of me and my husband but I never have my picture taken. I'm over 25 pounds down since January and I cannot believe how huge I am! How fat was I before?!?
I am keeping all of them. I keep thinking they will be great for my before /after pictures in a year or two. It's frustrating though. I feel awesome so it seems like I should look awesome too!0 -
