    I know my metabolism has slowed down alot since I turned 40, I had gained about 9 lbs and wasn't losing any weight. It was because I was actually burning less calories exercising than I thought I was. I had to reduce my calories to 1500-1700 and exercise at least an hour daily to lose weight. I have since only lost 6 lbs in the last 2 months but it is progress. I have been eating oranges daily and they are helping me to feel full along with nuts. I watched a youtube video of Dr. Oz and it was about almond butter and how it is supposed to help your metabolism to speed up. I have been using it along with diet and exercise and have noticed my pants are looser. Looking for more friends on MFP, if interested sent me a friend request.

    I should be excited, only that I am now stressed out about it. Give it to God.

    How close you are will factor into how big the bribe needs to be.

    I appreciate this, I feel like my inward soul sounds like this without coffee and sleep.

    Looks like a strong coffee day, before I play an air guitar 😂

    Fella.
    Informal of Fellow
    * A man
    There were a couple of fellas up by the bar
    *A male sexual partner or boyfriend
    Was she with her fella?

    Would the disrespect still occur, IF promoted?

    I’d hate to wake up to a job, that I was disrespected daily. The potential harm that continued stress could place on my body, would have me in search for a job.

    When/if you get the promotion, will you still be unfulfilled? Is the money enough for you to trade off job satisfaction? If you leave, will you find a job that will engage you? Lots of questions, only one person can answer them.

    I think it would, I'm the only female and only admin staff, the operatives don't respect me which makes my job a lot harder but all I keep thinking of is the opportunities getting a promotion (and the qualification along with it) will bring

    Both my sister's cancers are considered in remission. They started her next round (2 actually - one for each cancer) of chemo to help keep them in remission and are preparing for a stem-cell transplant.

    Fantastic news!

    First, I'll turn him into a flea, then I'll put that flea in a box. Then I'll but that box in another box and mail it to myself. Then when it arrives I'll SMASH IT WITH A HAMMER.
