I want to try them, too. I've seen Digestives and Hobnobs in the import section of a local grocery store. I'm almost afraid to try them because if I like them, I'd probably down 32 of them in one go as well.
Just FYI... They're amazingly delicious. Only the McVities ones though, the rest taste like cardboard. And the chocolate covered digestives.... Mmmmmm.
Don't do it ......those things are so darn good and you cant stop at one.
Good to know. I will be avoiding that aisle then because they are McVities brand and I probably would inhale the entire container.0 -
I skipped going grocery shopping and running errands and went to the salon instead to treat myself to a haircut. Shoulder-length hair is gone, and now I'm sporting a Mia Farrow in "Rosemary's Baby" pixie cut. And I love it.0

I know the embarrassing feeling. v.v

I'm usually randomly here and reading/confessing. I remembered a couple 100 pages back quite a few of you are into serial killers, as I am so I spent most of my afternoon that day reading all the links. I figured if you are into that you may be interested in this http://www.dionaea-house.com/default.htm
It's a 20-40 minute read but man it's interesting and chilling. Enjoy! =D0 -
I should change my goal to 'gain 1/2 pound a week' during PMS week so I stop seeing red numbers.0

Daughter update
She is pissed at me. She is pissed at doctor.
She has lost weight and weighs a little less than she did 2.5 years ago in middle school. Her urine is dilute. I am to toss or hide the scale in the house. I am to toss her full length mirror (It DOES make people look fat - I tried to get rid of it before but she wanted to keep it.) She is getting tested for thyroid, etc to see if there is a physical cause. She is to eat bigger breakfasts and lunches and make sure she has a good protein at lunch time, some spinach leaves do not make a balanced lunch. She is to try to not eat until she feels pain (stop eating before it hurts). I will also take her to a nutricianist to confirm she should be eating 1400-1600 calories a day and that she is getting the right foods. We go back to the doctor in a month. I think she is at a healthy weight - but certainly could gain weight and still be in the healthy weight range. The doctor and I will be in touch. The doctor talked to her about this is a challenging time of life but to try to enjoy it and it is ok if she does not pass all her APs and enter college with basically her freshman year completed already. The doctor suggested she try meditation daily too.
Thank you all.0 -

I love my hair very short or very long and not in-between. Short is very sassy and spicy!

Way to take the plunge! I rock a pixie and was nervous to do so at first, but I love it.

Not being in the work world, now, less motivation.....but cholesterol numbers, glucose numbers will wake you up. . I tell the young ones...... Get into a life time food plan and exercise routine, so that it IS your life style.. not just a quick fix, or a temporary habit. Aim for the best numbers possible and take care of yourself. Life is good..... and / or can be good. When you are physically fit, your mental health encourages you to set big goals and aim for your dreams. And.... they will come true.... but you have to take care of yourself..I aim to lose the additional 20 pounds.... I will do it.... I'm staying with MFP.... and I know I'm older... but I want to live a quality life.... enjoying music, walking, activities, friends, family.... and lots of fun ...... You want to live a healthy life ..... until you can't ..... I encourage all of you before menopause, including the men..... to take good care of yourselves...... ditch the bad habits, trash bags, barfing, starving, and quick fix diets....... All the best...

Excellent advice. And you can do it!1 -

Ugh, I am sorry you are going through this with your daughter! Good for you for watching her and following through. You are a good parent. Unfortunately good parenting is crappy thankless work much of the time. Keep up the good fight.0 -

I slept in over 30 minutes late so my whole routine was off and I was rushed this morning.
Their is a very good chance I forgot to put deodorant on.
I had sex for about 30 minutes after snoozing the alarm 3 times, and I DID totally forget to put on deoderant (but I did shower) LOL ... and yes... I'm bragging.0 -

I'm sorry you feel horrible, talking to someone could help you at least not feel so alone. I do have days like that though too I admit.0 -

My neighbors downstairs were blasting music yesterday, and a song came on that instantly gave me nostalgic vibes. I couldn't catch the lyrics, so I couldn't look it up... and now I've even forgotten the tune All I remember is that my mom used to play it in the car when I was little.
I love it when you're able to FINALLY figure something out!!!0 -

Oh that sucks!!
Yeah, some songs I hunt for off and on, I listen to mostly dancehall, so all my memories from 20 years ago back in the club with music that never played main stream or on a radio, so hard to find....
But today I found two, and feel totally accomplished lol, I knew the name for one, but not the artist and the DJ of the second one, but not the name of the song....now I have them both!!

Maybe not for the ice cream, but do you have a shelter nearby? The rules vary from place to place, but I know our women's shelter will take donated baked goods.0 -

How did you find them, out of curiosity? Typically I just google the lyrics I remember and the songs pop up, lol.
There was one song I was looking for last week... I loved it as a kid, it was on a French CD from various artists from the 80s... couldn't even remember the melody and even less the lyrics, just that there was 'why' in the title, and that it's one of the 3 songs on that CD that I kept playing (with 'Eternal Flame' and 'Careless Whispers', lol). I spent an hour googling 'romantic songs from the 80s' and finally it popped up on a website. Lover Why by Century. The funny part is that once it started playing I remembered the lyrics.
On another note, I'm finally full today... after eating 4000 calories. Seems to be the magic number for my bad PMS days. Hurray. I'm calling my doctor on Monday for an appointment, there must be SOMETHING she can do, short of giving me the pill... I'm going to be close to 3000 extra calories this week.0 -

Yeah, the one song was by a guy called Merciless, and I have looked at song lists and listened to random songs etc, and have googled lyrics before, what little I could remember, but it never actually came up, but today, I just tried randomly and it came right up! All I could remember was there was a line about Chuck Norris and Sylvester Stallone and I literally just googled "Merciless Chuck Norris" LMAO
The first video that popped up was that song posted to facebook, for the first time ever, followed by several Chuck Norris videos, lol
Then the second one is a dancehall version of "We are family" and I would just google that from time to time, and again, for some reason, it worked today!
Also, I love George Michael!! Just sayin!0
