Confession Time! ((ABSOLUTELY NO JUDGEMENT))

A female in heat sounds like a woman being murdered. It's seriously creepy. We used to live in an area with lots of foxes and if my dog heard it at night, she'd put her tail between her legs and head for home.WillLift4Tats wrote: »CountessKitteh wrote: »WillLift4Tats wrote: »ladybuggnorris wrote: »I confess, while trying not to judge, that I am annoyed that so many posts on this thread have become novellas.

I've been the opposite. I've had quite a few times the past few days where I'm sitting reading on my tablet while I'm waiting for water to boil or waiting on my computer to reboot/update/reboot. The thread would've been a lot shorter without the long posts.
Confession: I have an aversion to walking/running outside because of a very near miss I had with a very dead raccoon on the side of the road. I've been once this year so far to the walking trail, because I know it's "safe" in that regard, but I still had an almost overwhelming irrational fear on the sections that are near the woods. Think I'll stick to the treadmill a while longer.
I was walking on the trails near my home one day about a month ago and two foxes ran out of the brush and across the trail about 2 feet in front of me... nearly gave me a heart attack!
I confess it's my dream to see a fox in person. They're adorable! I'm sure the surprise would give me a heart attack too though, which reminds me of a similar story.
My husband and I were running a trail through a natural area last summer when we heard all this racket coming from the right of us. We stopped just in time for a male deer to run right in front of us across the path. We laughed hysterically from the surprise and our doubly increased heart rates.
We have a few "resident" foxes (ie: known dens) in the woods behind my house. We see them occassionally in the yard - and once on my patio! - but we HEAR them all summer. For something so cute and fluffy, they hardly ever shut up!
Sorry... have to.... So... What DOES the Fox say?
That was my first thought
But seriously, what do they sound like??

I barely made it through the first page or two. Did the OP ever answer WHY she doesn't just take an iron supplement?! That would've made much more sense. I didn't understand it at all.
It was a mixture of not being able to swallow pills and hearing bad things about infusions or shots. There was a lot of stuff going on in there. I didn't quite follow it all.
Thanks for the info! Still doesn't make sense, but it never ceases to amaze me how something so mundane (plain Cheerios) can turn into a 28+ page thread here.
Can't eat cheerios? Crush them up and snort them, problem solved.
As someone who was formerly a stupid kid who did bad things...OW
I bet Smarties hurt more than Cheerios.

Confession: One of secretaries at work coughs...constantly. It's a medical thing. She doesn't have a cold. I've been here six months. Seriously, she coughs every day, all day. My confession is that I want to strangle her! People close their office doors during the day and I am convinced it is because of her coughing. I wish the bosses would fire her just so I wouldn't have to listen to her cough. She's a nice lady and I feel kinda bad, but...0

My mom and dad constantly cough, too (smokers). It drives me insane.

My boss has the same issue. Coughing and clearing his throat, all day. Plus his breathing sounds super labored when he eats because he's eating too fast. Then he slurps EVERYTHING he drinks. It could be cold coffee and he's slurping. Misophonia is no joke, I'm ready to throttle him on a daily basis. I feel for you.0 -

Oh...yea. That sounds terrifying and awful. I remember hearing neighborhood cats in heat when I was a kid and it's downright nightmare inducing.0 -

my confession?? I am constantly finding myself running my hand over my new found bones.. collar bone,cheek bones, knees, hip bones etc... I cant help myself Im amazed at their arrival haha
A couple years ago I was dating a guy and went to a wedding with him and his family. After the ceremony we went to his parents house. These people were boring, and they wouldn't put anything interesting on TV. I had also recently started heavy(ish) lifting and was noticing some changes in my triceps. The guy's mom asked if I was cold and wanted a sweater because I kept rubbing my arms.
whoops.

I was half in love with him too...even after I knew everything he did. I blame Evan Peters incredible adorableness. *sigh*0 -

I buy unsalted almonds. But then I pack them in the same baggie as my pretzels so they get salt on them.0

I confess that I have not been keeping up with MFP. I'm learning Mandarin, reading books that intelligent people should have read (like 1984. Next up is The alchemist followed by Lolita), reducing procrastination at work, lifting 2x a week, martial arts 2x a week, eating more fruits and veggies and eating out less, being more social, hiking more, my first 5k is Saturday...AHHHHHHH!!!!! Counting calories has been dropping pretty low in my to-do list especially since I'm happy with my body (though I'm always trying to improve).
I also confess that I have a HUGE drawer full of food/snacks at work. I think I might have a bit of starvation anxiety for some reason. I almost always have a piece of really good chocolate (screw hersheys seriously) at 3pm(ish)
Learning Mandarin is awesome and fun! Just always remember "Learning Mandarin is a five year lesson in humility." I've been studying for about five years now and...it's a very true sentiment. Five years in French and I was reading novels and writing huge papers...in Chinese I can read children's stories on a good day. -_-0 -

All of those things are a part of a healthy diet. My bacon cheeseburger and pizza are just as important as the fruits, veggies, yogurt, lean meats etc. They are what fuel my lifting and martial arts. It's all good!0 -

Quite an impressive list of goals! I aspire to do similar, as I'm always trying to improve myself as a person, but I'm not nearly this ambitious. Plus, I read The Alchemist last year and was disappointed that I did not have an awe-inspiring reaction to it or whatever it is supposed to do. I guess I didn't "get it"? Perhaps I should re-read it. I get discouraged when I really try to expand my horizons and fail miserably. The next book I read was Joan Rivers "Diary of a Mad Woman". Now, THAT I "got"! Hilarious.
I listen to audiobooks! There is an app called overdrive that connects to your library and you get all the books you could want for free right on your phone. Now I am getting two things done during my commute, while cooking, doing dishes etc. Makes all of it more enjoyable. Maybe I won't like the alchemist. Who knows? Atlas shrugged was a SLOG.0 -

They also just sound like slightly bigger yippy dogs, when they're just having a good time. Females also bark at their kits a lot, which is the same as human moms, I guess. Sometimes kids just won't listen.

I finally got a food scale. I always thought people or so full of it when they say weigh out everything.
5 oz of tilapia looks a lot different then what I always thought. Wow I was over eating on healthy foods all the other times I tried trying to loose weight.
So heres a confession. On easter I saw my brother and sister in law for the first time in months. My SIL has gained a ton of weight and she was wearing jeans and a t-shirt that had to both be two sizes too small. All I could think was thats karma in action.
I say this because when I started to gain weight after dating my husband she would talk about me behind my back about my weight and ask my husbands parents if I was pregnant since I was so big. This went on probably the first two years we dated.
It feels nice to know shes not as perfect as she tries to make herself seem.0 -
I confess I just read through the entire Cheerios thread. I couldn't stop...it was such a train wreck! I think I lost brain cells.0

My confession; I have diligently followed this thread from start to finish (despite not really having the time to do so..) and have to say - there are so many truly amazing people here! Keep doing what you are doing people. I have been entertained beyond comprehension by this thread and I want to thank you all for that
And a food related confession...I think about food way too much. I have already pre-logged my week and dream about my breakfast when I go to sleep haha

I don't have much experience with liquor. I went out today and bought some Kahlua because I wanted some alcoholic coffee (whoops). I tried some in my coffee and think I made the wrong decision. It would go a lot better if I also had some cream in there or something, but I HATE sugary coffee. I think brings down the quality of good coffee by a lot Any drinks you guys can suggest I make with Kahlua? Not planning on drinking it all very fast... I have calories to bank! 0

I know, right? Getting a food scale was one of the best things I did this time around. I get unnaturally elated (like, fist pumping in the air elated) when I weigh something like cheese and it's exactly 1 oz.
As far as your SIL is concerned, I've got a cousin like that. She was always really skinny when we were growing up, and I was always chubby. She loved to exclude me from everything and say nasty things about my weight behind my back.
Well, she always bragged to me about how she can eat whatever she wants and never gain weight. Last time I saw her, I could count the rolls of flab beneath her too-tight t-shirt. I almost felt bad for the evil cackling inside my head. Almost. 0 -
Sombrero=kahlua and cream (or milk, which is how I was introduced to it in college). You could always start a thread asking whether you should make your reduced calorie sombrero with skim, soy milk, or almond milk.
White Russian=same thing with vodka
Black Russian=same thing without the dairy
Mudslide=Black Russian with Baileys too.
I'm not actually recommending any, but we had a kahlua party in college featuring the Russian ones especially.0 -

You could always go Lebowski and make White Russians: 1.5 oz. vodka, 3/4 oz. Kahlua, 3/4 oz. light cream or milk 0 -
The sombrero sounds much better than just coffee + kahlua. To me it tastes like it would go very well with cream or milk. I've never had a white russian so maybe I'll get some vodka before the bottle is empty and try one. After trying what I just drank I'm feeling a little bit ill... just too sweet with nothing to counter it out. I was also looking at the coconut rum and now I'm wondering if I should have bought that instead. Like I said, no liquor experience!lemurcat12 wrote: »Sombrero=kahlua and cream (or milk, which is how I was introduced to it in college).

confession- had a craving for mac and cheese. ate a respectable portioned amount at lunch.
Oh, right the embarrassing part- then went out to dinner (its my family's pizza night) and ate 8 slices of mac'n'cheese pizza with extra mac and cheese added to the top. Basically cheesy pizza drowning in cheese sauce. with pasta.
The manager actually came up and starting asking me questions on how I stay so thin. Yikes. embarrassing.0 -
Confession time:
My mom bought a half a cupcake home for me to try. She - knows- I'm trying to change and cake is my favorite dessert.
So I took two bites out of its gooey goodness and passed the other small half to my sister. It was half of a cupcake haha..how can I document that on my daily diary? Good thing it was within my calorie intake for the day!0 -
