When I got to the gym, there was a guy benching in the squat rack (which is fine, because there is no bench rack at my gym). I like to start with squats, but whatever, I started with my deadlift - 195 pounds, BTW! Guy was still in the squat rack, so I moved onto OHP from the floor. So, I had to clean the bar before I could OHP (which I kinda liked and may do from now on). Guy is still in the squat rack. So I went and did some extra biceps curls and tricep extensions. Guy is still in the squat rack. We're talking 30 minutes or so he's been in there, doing really slow bench with really long breaks between sets. At one of his breaks, I finally ask him "You gonna be much longer?" He says, "I'm done," and walks out of the gym. He didn't just leave the squat rack, he left the whole gym! He left the weights on the bar and everything. I didn't know I was that scary! LOL
I have another gym confession from last night, but I'm gonna post it later so this doesn't become TL:DR
I've seen this several times and have no idea what it means.
It means "Too Long, Didn't Read".

How absolutely awful. Sending positive thoughts your way... hope your family gets that miracle!0 -
I'm totally understanding of the right to bear arms and hunting to provide food and goods. I don't agree with hunting for sport. I don't consider using high powered firearms to kill prey from hundreds of yards away hunting. There should be laws that require "sport hunters" to be in danger of being prey themselves.0

I felt like this before I lost weight the first time. I think because I felt so out of control and like I didn't understand why I was gaining or how to lose it. I had to convince myself that it didn't matter if I lost the weight, so long as I could have as healthy a lifestyle as possible, in order to have the courage to get started, and only after I'd made some progress did I start believing I could lose.
I regained for various reasons after maintaining that loss for 5 years, but one thing that made it easier this time, despite being older (44 when I started, 45 now), is that I did believe that I could do it (in fact, even after I regained in my head I felt like I was basically a fit person -- which was false, but somewhat helpful).
Anyway, hugs--this is my longwinded way of saying that you aren't meant to be fat, but I totally understand feeling that way. I think sometimes it does help to really focus on the process things rather than the scale, since it's easy to have small setbacks derail you.
(And I know it's scary to admit the things we try to hide too. One thing that scared me about trying to lose weight the second time was that I'd convinced myself that I didn't mind it that much and I was afraid that if I failed I would have also blown my feeling that it was okay. Just working at it made me feel better, though, even before I lost a substantial amount.)0 -

Feeling slightly inadequate in my job currently, I'm from southern Ontario and currently working for the City of Ottawa. I cannot speak french which is slightly hindering my performance in my job, I'm frustrated to say the least.

And how can you actually brag about your "skills"? What skill? Yes, I realize hitting a moving target with a gun takes practice and skill, but killing an innocent animal just for your own personal satisfaction is wrong.
My son and his dad hunt deer, elk, and antelope, but they process the entire animal and distribute the meat to the whole family.0 -
I hate the falling dreams. Those are awful because you usually jerk yourself awake.
I hate dreams about being hurt (emotionally) by people in my life. Confession: I woke up crying from dreams like that.
I have very vivid totally random dreams where they are story after story within a story, it's weird.
This made me think of two dreams that made me wake up crying. Both were about my sister dying and how sad we all were afterwards. I told her to be careful. She's the only person I've ever had dreams like that about. It scares me.
I've also had the dreams where you are jerked away. The one that gets me like that is a dream (it's been the same each time) where I am going up a hill too fast and the van in front of me slams the brakes on and I slam into the back of the van. I get jerked away.
Dreams are weird.0 -

I agree 100%. When I was growing up, my Dad was a hunter, and we pretty much only ate wild game. It was definitely not for sport, but a means of feeding a family on a very low income. He used a basic rifle and also never, ever killed a buck (which is what sport hunter are after). The does always had better, less-gamey meat on them. Being from a family that survived on wild game, I get so stabby and irritated when I hear about hunters that take the head of the big buck and leave all the good stuff behind. The least you could do is process the meat and give it to families in need.0 -

So everyone's like "ERMAGERD WHY ARE YOU DRESSED UP" and I'm like "20th anniversary?"
They're buying it.
Haha, the excuse is amazing.
Dressing up for the anniversary. Awesome! 0 -

But I also know how my own body feels and what I personally can handle.
I have to disagree that cheese calories are unnecessary. Just like bread calories. I do not understand this foreign concept.
One of the best foods ever - CHEESE BREAD - definitely necessary calories in my book!
Cheese is the second most important food product in my life.0 -

Oh no. I'm sorry to hear this as well. I will pray/send good vibes. This breaks my heart.0 -
Agreed. How can it be 'sport'? Now, if a guy was going after a bear just with Wolverine-style claws taped to his hands, that I'd agree with.AgentOrangeJuice wrote: »I'm totally understanding of the right to bear arms and hunting to provide food and goods.

Confession: I'm currently on crutches and the people who ignore me as I'm trying to open a heavy door while at work are making me angry.
At least on the other side of that, there have been good people who go out of their way to try to help. That at least gives me back some hope for humanity.0 -

There is a lady at work with a broken leg in a wheelchair. I offered to help her a couple of times and she got pissy. So let's blame her as the reason no one is helping you.
