    I confess that I would love to have the luxury of taking a year (or at least 6mths) off work to focus on weight loss. Instead I am stuck (for now) workig 14h a day, 5d/week, running around on saturdays to do whatever I need done (thats usually the day I walk a lot aka weekly exercise). Sundays is dedicated to cleaning and laundry... I need a life.

    *sigh* It will have to do for at least another few months

    I confess, this may be an unpopular opinion, but I tried a shamrock shake once because of all the hype and was disappoint that it was just mint chocolate chip ice cream in a shake. I don't know what I expected.

    Leprechaun flavor?

    I had a shamrock shake.

    It was tasty, but not worth the calories. I'd rather just have ice cream. I doubt I'll get another.

    I confess it has been too long since I have been here. I got back to old routines but have been clean for a while now. Made it farther than I have been 17 years and looking to meet some new people with like minded goals.

    I'm irritated and disappointed. I'm not looking forward to my workout tonight since apparently there's people at the gym that talk about my weight. Usually I couldn't give two *kitten*, but that information coming from the person it did, really leaves me feeling defeated.

    I LOVE the orange dream shake at Arby's. So good.

    Otherwise, chocolate for me, too.
