Confession Time! ((ABSOLUTELY NO JUDGEMENT))

I have terrible vision already as well and I wear my contacts every day because wearing glasses messes with my depth perception and makes me fall using the stairs and stuff. I never seem to get used to it. I'm 20/20 with my contacts and they never bother me, so I will never switch unless it become absolutely necessary for my eye health.
Books: I've never been a big fantasy reader, but I have read all the LOTR/Harry Potter/Narnia etc., the big ones. I did make it through the first two Game of Thrones but I didn't like them much and haven't bothered with the third one. I think they make a better TV series than novels, honestly, and I'm not ashamed to admit it. Just not worth the effort for me although I generally love a big dense novel (I just read "Wolf Hall" by Hilary Mantel, for example, and that was SO GOOD.)0 -
My eyesight was terrible when I was younger. Had glasses and contacts but hated them both. I abused my eyes by wearing my extended wear lenses over their expected time. Luckily, I came out ok. I had lasik done about six years ago and wished I had done it sooner. After a few years with great vision post surgery, my age is catching up with me and now I am getting to need the cheaters to read small print!0

That's why I don't want to do Lasik.. Don't want to pay so much and end up needing glasses again after a few years. My vision really hasn't stabilized anyway... been wearing glasses/contacts since I was 12 (and preferring glasses again now, honestly).
ETA: my 'a bit over' just morphed into 'way over' because of massive carb cravings. And there I thought I wasn't going to have one of those days this month. Figures it always happens when my mom brings brioche. Back on track tomorrow, right?0 -
I think I'm like 20/400 or something, it's been a while. I adore my glasses, though, so I rarely wear contacts anymore.0

I was in the 20/625 range, contacts since age 10, and got lasik. Best $5K I've ever spent. I was in my late 30s when I got it done so they slightly undercorrected one eye to prolong my close vision.Confession: one of my main hesitations to buy reading glasses is that I have an affinity for expensive sunglasses. I wear them all the time and I'm guilty of not taking them off when I'm inside the grocery store or running various errands. Currently, I'm contemplating an awesomely fancy pair of purple Gucci shades that retail for $325.00.
Take those off to put on a pair of readers?! Hell no. I'll stick with my fancy shades and not be able to read. Vain.
I have an affinity for very cheap sunglasses
considering how careless I am with them. I throw them in my purse without a case, they fall on the floor in the car several times a week, I forget they're in a pocket and sit or lean on them.
This is me. I refuse to buy expensive sunglasses. I buy mine from Marshall's for $10. I cannot keep them to save my life. Lose and break them all the time. I just broke my last pair by throwing a bunch of cat foot cases on top of them.
Back to Marshall's I go. 0 -

I had 20/16 vision growing up & through adulthood, but now at age 46 it's official...I'm the reader-perched-on-the-head-guy.

When I turned 40 everyone kept asking me if my eyesight had changed. I kept saying no...my eyesight has been the same (glasses since I was in middle school) essentially for years. Then about 3 years ago, boom, I couldn't see anymore. Now I have bi-focals. I feel old. I use the one near and one far contact and that mostly works, but I still have to shift eyes depending on what I am looking at, and my laptop, when on my lap, hits in EXACTLY the wrong place. 0 -

Not looking forward to that.
The problem I got is that my eyesight is so bad on my right eye that I need regular glasses to be able to read something that is one foot in front of me.. because it's still too far.. not because it's too close. I cried the day I couldn't read without glasses anymore.0 -

3 of the swimsuits and the swimsuit cover came from Amazon yesterday. As soon as I walked in the door, I was asked to "model" them.
The first one I tried on barley covered my nipples and I feared my boob would pop out if I made any sudden movements. It was a really cute navy with white polka dots suit and it was my husband's favorite.
The second one was just like the one I found on Anthropologie's website, but it was a lot less expensive. I shimmied into it and had him tie the halter. It fit perfectly and made my butt look amazing. I was really excited.
The third one was a little strange. It was like a mini dress with a bikini bottom attached. The back was really cute and when I pulled the skirt down a little bit, it made my butt look amazing. The top where the two cups met was a little messed up or I probably would have kept it.
I am due to get the final one today. I am most excited about it. I hope this works. http://www.amazon.com/Cocoship-Vintage-Monokinis-Halter-Swimsuit/dp/B00TI5BMYG/ref=pd_sim_193_2?ie=UTF8&refRID=1ZWTW24XMYZ5XAWWN296
My husband also said he was going to buy me another swimsuit cover.
Every day I get a little bit more excited about our trip. Especially now that I have at least one really cute swimsuit.
I think that any swimsuit that gets you excited is amazing! I've been more or less maintaining for the past year, and I still get nervous in a swimsuit. Out of curiosity, which swimsuit was number 2? (the Anthropologie look-alike?) I'm still looking for a good new suit for this summer and then for the honeymoon...0 -

I don't think I've ever expressed my ice cream consumption as portions of a gallon... I tip my hat to you, sir. Well done.
Lamest reason for eating ice cream ever: there's one (give or take) serving left in the tub and tonight is garbage night, so I want to get the empty container out in the garbage. Therefore, I eat ice cream!
Kind of annoyed because the nutrition content label only gives volume, not weight and I refuse to try and get ice cream in and out of a half-cup measure because it will get all melty in the process.0 -

Haha yeah it hurts to leave one serving of ice cream in a tub. Maybe you can find the weight of a serving online if it's a brand you can find in the US too?
I have a lame excuse too though... usually, on days when I'm hungry like today, I would just have had dinner at 4pm after picking up the kids. But my mom is visiting (she went out this afternoon though)... and nobody else will be home until 6pm... but she's going to give me s*** if I don't have dinner with them. So having dinner wasn't an option, and I went for a snack instead... which quickly degenerated into a 900 calories snack. And I still haven't had dinner (but I know I'll be hungry for it. Sigh. I'm already hungry again).
Let's say I really don't do well when I have to align my meal timing with others, because my hunger signals are always all over the place. It was already torture to wait until 12.30pm for lunch today.

Thanks, it is getting better, the bruise is much uglier, so that means it came up to the surface more and is now much less painful today.
Glad to hear it is improving because it looks painful. But, you still haven't told us what you did to earn that nasty injury! Just being nosy.
Umm... it is embarrasing. I was using my elyptical (the as a step to reach something, and the darn thing spun around and threw me off.
Absolutely something I would do. I've used cardio machines at the gym for countless years, but I'm still convinced that the reason my heart rate stays elevated is fear of falling off the machine. I'm a crooked walker, so I really have to watch myself on the treadmill. The first few weeks I did the step mill I didn't even call it a workout. It was "stumbling up the stairs for 30 min.".
Now I bought a new pair of ear buds that I like, but the cord is really long. It's just a matter of time before that gets wrapped onto something and a disaster ensues.
I've found that if I put the ear bud cord through my shirt sleeve and out the top of my shirt it helps with getting caught on stuff.
I do the same thing... but I put my ipod on my waistband and then run it under my shirt. Or it does get caught!0 -

Unfortunately it's the President's Choice brand (Butter Tart Pecan flavour!) that is only available in the Real Canadian Superstore and its derivatives.
I think precise accuracy is out the window anyway. I would think calorie value would depend on the relative proportions of pecans to ice cream to caramel sauce to little clumps of pretend pastry, which aren't the same in every serving, whether measured by weight or volume.
I was actually supposed to be logging it. But I popped in here instead.

I am on the verge of menopause, so I guess I won't be able to use PMS as an excuse for my moodiness for long. But I guess menopause will work just as well

I usually just find a generic US ice cream of a similar variety (something dense with nuts and stuff in this case) and assume it'll be kind of close. It drives me crazy that ice cream is always in mls here though.0 -

My confession is I've been drinking too much...every single day for quite awhile. I am making a commitment to not drink Monday through Thursday this week. Please think good thoughts for me!
ETA: A little embarrassed to admit this quasi publicly, but hoping admitting it on here will make me face reality. Since I know there are several of you that have admitted to stopping for good.
You are so not judged. I'm thinking about (not yet committed to ) a dry June. Yes, it is a big enough of a deal to not drink for an entire month for me but June is my worst month. My dad died 3 years ago on his and my mother's 43rd wedding anniversary, right after Father's Day. I tend to drink and cry from one to the other. I try to keep that as discrete as possible (the drinking, not the crying ) so I'm not a super horrible example to my kids but seriously, it is excessive and it needs to stop.
You are not alone. Many people struggle with cutting back on drinking.
I am sorry for your loss. My father died right after 4th of july 1990 and I still morn him. He was a shot and a beer guy and drank every night before he went to bed. I toast him with a shot and a beer on 4th of july and on his birthday in October. It makes me feel better to keep this ritual in his memory.
My dad died 26 years ago this June, 3 days before my parents wedding annivesary and again, right after Father's Day. Still miss him every day.
Funny how it never seems any easier.....my father died on Dec 3rd, 1991, I still cry every single time that anniversary passes. He died very suddenly, and inadvertently left me alone with my crazy mother, so it was really difficult. He was the person I loved most in the world, and I still miss him every day. My son is named after him, and it makes me tear up when I think about how my son never got to meet him. My sister said she cried a lot when he died too, not only because he was a great stepdad to her, but because she felt bad for the way he was treated by our mother and when he died she felt bad that he wasted so many years of his life being treated like that.
But last year, on only the second anniversary of his death I was really into what I was doing at work at the time and I completely forgot until my brother text to see of I was ok. This made me feel like I was a terrible person. Me and my brother have both always said to my mum that we don't want to mark the occasion, we'd rather continue to celebrate his birthday instead, and her brother and sisters tend to do something with her on the anniversary. But I felt awful that I didn't even realise.
I've never really been much of a crier, and tend to get on with things, but some things will really upset me. Sometimes even imagined things, like a song I think he'd have liked and I imagine him telling me about this great new singer that I was trying to get him into years before, but he'd only have recognised when they came onto radio 2. And when my brother got married last month I got quite upset when we did something to remember him, but I'd not have expected that I would have.
But I have found that it does seem easier, I love my dad and always will, he has played a big part in who I am, and although I miss him when he should be around I know how he would have felt about things and can imagine his reaction. And to me the anniversary of his death is the opposite to special and not something I want to mark.
I don't make a big deal about the day my dad died either. He also died of cancer. And we found him...He had probably got out of bed to go to the bathroom and had a stroke or he may have fallen and hit his head on the side table. My mom had stayed in the spare bedroom because he was getting Chemo and she had a cold and didn't want to affect him. She couldn't find him when she went looking for him and came running into the kitchen where I was having breakfast hysterical she couldn't find him. She thought he had committed suicide, went running for the garage to see if his car was there. When she saw it was she just looked at me like where is he? And I knew. I said 'did you look beside the bed'? She was so confused but I just knew. We went to the bedroom and looked at the far side of the bed and he was laying there. She was hysterical again and kept begging me to do something, to help him. I could tell that he had been gone for hours. I worked as a nursing *kitten*'t at the time, and she thought I should save him. It still breaks my heart that I couldn't do anything to help -- her mostly as he was long gone. I felt guilty about that for years. For years I could never say my dad had died, I only said he was gone. Apparently a lot of cancer patients don't actually die from cancer, they have strokes, etc. before the cancer kills them (at least that is what I remember the doctor telling me at the time). But the day he died is just a day. I prefer to remember all the good stuff he did, none of the bad (which my siblings like to focus on) and I simply miss him every day. But I have 'missed' the day of his death before and felt guilty to not even recognize it. I am always sad on Fathers day and I get bitter when marketers send me emails about 'gifts for dad'. I actually just got one as I was writing this. I wish I could buy my dad a gift.
And now I am sorry I probably just depressed all of you.0 -

The confession part...I haven't yet opened the bag because I don't want anyone else eating them and as long as they stay closed, I know no one else is. If I open the bag, I don't want to have to keep track of how many cookies I've eaten vs. how many are left in the bag.
I'm very stingy with my food sometimes.
There is always dark chocolate of some variety in our cabinet. The boy tried it a long time ago and didn't like it, so every time he asks for some I remind him that he doesn't like that kind. Wondering when that will end, and hoping never!
Also, the husband said to me "you like old lady chocolate", so I told him if his taste buds were not refined enough to appreciate my quality chocolate then he should keep it out of his mouth. (To clarify, this conversation was playful not mean.)
That made me smile. Dove dark chocolate promises are some of my absolute favorite. My husband bought 3 bags for me for Christmas.
Its taken me a long time to work out that American Dove chocolate = British Galaxy
I hate galaxy chocolate. Cadburys all the way for sweet, every day chocolate. Dark chocolate for those indulgent treats.
Really? I didn't know that!
And I can't believe you hate Galaxy! I thought we were friends? I'm not angry, just disappointed.
Oh dear. Galaxy chocolate is just vile, over sweetened, fatty tasting blandness. I mean, i'll eat it in a pinch, when there is nothing else available, but its not my go to.
and apparently, we own page 744!
But Galaxy is so silky smooooooth. I prefer it cold to room temperature. Room temperature it is a bit sickly.
I will never turn down Milka chocolate though. The Swiss get chocolate right on so many levels.
mmmm milka! With daim pieces. Yummy!
The best are the HUGE bars you get in the airport. Bit like the MASSIVE Toblerone bars.
I need to stop talking about chocolate...
So them apples. I'm a Braeburn girl myself.
count me in for Pink Ladys. Very juicy, crisp and sweet.
I quite enjoy the gala or the honey crisp!
I have never tried a honey crisp apple.....someone mentioned them in this thread really early on, and I search every grocery store in my city looking for them and could not find any! I only generally eat Granny Smith apples, but would like to at least TRY a honey crisp!
ETA: I have no idea what a pink lady apple is either
It's easier to find them closer to autumn, I think they are some of the last to be ready to pick.

Confession - After 620 calories of brioche and two KIND bars, I had four crackers with a bit of cheddar before dinner, because I was still starving. My mom told me I'd ruin my appetite for dinner. I laughed.

Also, please, please, please, please don't put any GoT spoilers on here. I haven't seen the series, but I'm reading the books (on the 5th one I think, although I don't know because it's on the kindle) and if someone spoils any of it for me I will cry. I can see from the kindle I am 86% of the way through the entire thing, and I don't quite know what I'll do with myself when I finish it!
I get very mournful when I finish a series of books. Wishing I could forget all about them and read them again.
oh god sorry!!! I will endeavour not to spoiler. I'm such a huge GoT fan, TV series and books. I've just started reading them again. I love talking about it with other fans, but i don't know many people who've read the books
But i will say the books are better at some storylines, the tv show is better at others.
I refuse to watch the show until I read the books. I don't have HBO (or TV for that matter) but because I work in the communications industry and market HBO I get the DVDs. I Just pile them up to watch after I read the books.
I confess, now I think I am going to read the books regardless of having not finished my dissertation (bad move as I am a binge reader).0 -

I only ever wanted to slap him in the 5th book. He got really whiny in that book. BUT... @LBuehrle8 if you loved Harry Potter you will likely really like LOTR. I always felt that Harry Potter was like a dumbed down LOTR. Probably just because of the fantasy. But I am sure I will spark some kind of argument with that so please forgive me. I love both series. 0
