It's not a journey

7! 7 hate letters! AH AH AH AH HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

This and life in general is a journey and it ends when you die.

Now

Don't stop believing,
Hold on to that fe-e-e-ling

Semantics schemantics. I don't see what the big deal is. Whatever metaphor works for you go ahead and use it. Any Way You Want It.

If you keep it up we will have to go our Separate Ways.

Can't we all just embrace each other with Open Arms?

Faithfully,
Q :flowerforyou:

DAMN! it is never ending :sick:

Oh god, prom flashback

I agree that it is a lifestyle change. Let me offer you this though:

If somebody wants to call losing 100 pounds a journey, they aren't exactly incorrect by calling it a journey. As you mentioned, the definition of journey has an end point. Would it not be correct if they did lose the 100 pounds and reached the end of their journey? For example, a man weighs 315 pounds and wants to weight 215, by definition it is a journey. However, to maintain 215 pounds it would be a lifestyle change.

Either way, sending you a PM/hate mail because of your opinion is just about the dumbest thing I've heard all day.

yes i agree. you are both right.

but who cares what other people think??? i dont lol
and for the people sending you hate mail just block them and go on with ur day. lol

OP, do you want some aloe vera, cause you got buurrnned.. haha j/k, calm down.

I dont' feel the burn. As I stated, I wanted the attention from the bullies The stated reason for the post was to detract attention from all of the why are people so mean threads that have been driving me nuts today.

Touche', I just wanted to quote the Big Bang Theory, as I heard this last night and I chuckled :laugh: <<<<me chuckling

Just a small town girl
Livin' in a lonely world
She took the midnight train
Goin' anywhere
Just a city boy
Born and raised in South Detroit
He took the midnight train
Goin' anywhere

A singer in a smokey room
A smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile they can share the night
It goes on and on and on and on

Strangers waiting
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching
In the night
Streetlights, people
Livin' just to find emotion
Hidin', somewhere in the night

Workin' hard to get my fill
Everybody wants a thrill
Payin' anything to roll the dice
Just one more time
Some will win
Some will lose
Some were born to sing the blues
Oh, the movie never ends
It goes on and on and on and on

Strangers waiting
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching
In the night
Streetlights, people
Livin' just to find emotion
Hidin', somewhere in the night

[Instrumental Interlude]

Don't stop believin'
Hold on to the feelin'
Streetlights, people
Don't stop believin'
Hold on
Streetlights, people

1. I do if you apply it!

2. I think OP made his meaning plane.

I LOVE the term Journey and I like the band. A Journey of a thousand miles begins with one step, two roads diverged in the woods and I, I took the one less traveled, dont stop believin'

There's so many awesome and motivating cliches how can you not love the term journey?

I also love the term battle and war.

The journey never ends until you die there will always be a new destination and the unexpected.

JOURNEY!

Plus there is this Journey tribute band and OMG the bassist is sex in pants!

So, for all those who claim to be on a journey, you are claiming at some point you will stop. As history has shown time and again, if you stop, you will find yourself sliding back and will undo all of your hard work.

At some point I will die, and thus the journey will end. Then my work will be undone since I can't imagine successfully avoiding rot and maggot activity in order to preserve all my hard work. That's okay...I'm gonna continue this journey anyway...until I run out of road.

:drinker:

7! 7 hate letters! AH AH AH AH HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

You've been cracking me up all day. Keep going!

Oh.. and....


NO!

In future I'll tell people that I'm on a Scorpions instead of a Journey.

Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
in the wind of change

Walking down the street
Distant memories
Are buried in the past forever
I follow the Moskva
Down to Gorky Park
Listening to the wind of change

If thats the case then I want to be one of the Highway Men...


I was a highwayman, along the coach roads I did ride
Sword and pistol by my side
Many a young maid lost her baubles to my trade
Many a soldier shed his lifeblood on my blade
The *kitten* hung me in the spring of twenty five
But I am still alive

I was a sailor, I was born upon the tide
With the sea I did abide
I sailed a schooner 'round the Horn to Mexico
I went aloft and furled the mainsail in a blow
And when the yards broke off, they said that I got killed
But I am livin' still

I'll just join in here since the 'journey' talk makes me want to stop believin'...

... butweight loss isn't a 'journey'. Just because some dolt on the Biggest Loser tells you that he/she is on a journey, that doesn't make it so - rather, it's a lifestyle change. A journey has a definite end - a lifestyle change goes with you for life. There is a definite and sensible difference.

you're all obviously barking mad....I love it - have had a most excellent 10 mins laughing ...OP if you like it....you stink (feel better?)

I was on a weight loss journey.

I went from unfit to fit.

Now I'm on maintanence.

Hate me if you must.
