Welcome to the club! Hope you'll join us (err.. think it's just me at this point) making the non-perky shoulder workout video.
Yes please! I have broad shoulders but very doughy arms. I'll be the asthmatic girl in the way back, struggling to keep up.
Trust me, you won't be struggling to keep up if I'm the instructor. However, you may well be hypnotized by the batwings flapping away merrily on my twiggy arms.
That's it. I'm totally in on this. Shoulder workout commences tonight! (I remember the routine, but how often was this going down?)
Too bad I can't get away with doing it at work. That would be a much more productive use of my time most days.
I admit I started incorporating this into my workout as well
Did mine tonight.
And you're now in the video too
Count me in the video, too. You definitely can feel the burn.
I'll confess that I think I'm tough - I lift heavy (for me, realistically once a week) - so I was sure it was going to be nothing. I was wrong
You're IN!! Happy to have you aboard!
(I just wanted to bump my favouritist ever thread back to page 1 where it belongs... I get sad when I see it on page 2)
Thank you! I almost panicked this morning when I didn't see it on the first page!0 -
Confession: I saw a lady running at the gym today with no bra on, just a camisole. Though she wasn't big-boobed, I still couldn't help but think how uncomfortable I would feel doing that!
Yeah, even if she was small busted that is inappropriate for the gym. Working out at home like that is fine, but in public? No. I'm not a prude or anything I just think that's way too much of a "wardrobe malfunction" possibility.0 -
We are expecting severe weather tonight... Tornado and severe thunderstorm watch.
When my son was a few days old, we had a large tree fall during a bad storm. It missed the room I was nursing in by literally a foot. I heard it break and crash and thought we were goners. It was the most terrifying moment of my life. It did $10,000 worth of damage to our house and garage and totaled my car (landed on top and smashed the frame).
So, the confession part is that I totally have undiagnosed PTSD from that experience and have horrible anxiety in any type of bad weather. Since I don't have any Xanax handy, I medicated with gelato and nachos. My stomach hurts and I'm still scared.
Yikes! I'm so glad you were okay. What a nightmare. Yeah, I'd have PTSD from that, too. How was your weather last night?
The storms weren't bad by the time they crossed us. There was a fatality a good distance west of where I live.0 -

That movie is freakin' terrible! I rarely sit down and watch a movie and I was hugely disappointed with this one. The acting was terrible, the writing was so stilted. I am usually not very judgemental at movies, but blech! Other super terrible movies (I think we've done this once before, but oh well): The Truman Show, The Village, Sex Tape - didn't finish that one, too stupid.
I fell asleep through District 9 last weekend. It was so ridiculous I thought my time was better spent catching up on some ZZzzzz's
The only reason I sat through the entirety of District 9, I was really hoping to see some of those Shrimp People getting naked, or at least, some sort of Messiah leading an army of intelligent shrimp people to blow up earth.
What happened in the end? I gave up after he discovered he had a shrimp arm and ended up living in the slums eating cat food.0 -
@BZAH10 - So, glad I'm not the only one with ten posts in a row!!! I also did the arm workout last night!0

Awesome! This makes me unreasonably happy. I guess this is the first time in a long time I feel like I've actually helped someone else.
I kind of think of you as the fairy godmother of this thread... You are kind and always take time to interact with people who have deep or out there stuff going on. I think you've helped a lot of people here.0 -
I actually like the Truman show.
I've been eating horribly today and enjoying it way too much... Fulling expecting to spend the next 2-3 weeks making up for it.0 -

Friday the 17th is a holiday where I work, so the office is closed. I work in a CPA office and it's crunch time and here I am on MFP. Anyway, that's not even my confession. We get the Friday after tax season is over off work. Usually either my kids or my husband happen to have the day off too. This year - kids will be at school, hubby will be at work. Secretly I'm thrilled to have the whole day to myself. I can't tell you the last time I've had time to myself that didn't have to be used for errands or cleaning or laundry.
This is no secret for me! I purposely take days off that no one else had or has and I don't tell them ahead of time, either. I work hard for my days off, so they belong to ME! I volunteer to work extra during the Thanksgiving / Christmas holiday period so that others can take time off and then I take a 4-day weekend both in Jan. and Feb. every year. It's great!
Before she retired, my mil would take random days off and go to the movies or out to lunch. She called them "mental health days".
I'm rarely ever really sick but I use sick days from work that I call "mental health days", sad thing is I have to also fool my hubby into believing I am sick so he won't judge me.0 -

I actually kind of like The Truman Show and The Village. District 9 is alright too.
I did not like Sex Tape. I was mad I wasted the money to see it in theatres. This Is 40 was another one I was super disappointed in.0 -
@AgentOrangeJuice - You live in Dekalb? I thought you said Quad Cities awhile back...my memory is slipping! I'm originally from a little town near Dekalb, Oregon.0

I know! I don't mean to do it on purpose. I have limited times when I can catch up and then I just respond right away so that I don't forget what I want to say. Looks like I'm a "binge poster".

Ack! I saw the IL tornado on the news this morning! I am terrified of those things. That one looked huge.1 -

I feel the same way. @BZAH10 makes such an effort to post helpful replies to so many people on here and remember all kinds of details from prior posts.
And for some weird reason I found this on page 3?? Might be a MFP glitch (or might just be what I'm seeing) but new posts don't seem to be updating the last post time.0 -
I threw out my back, so I'm eating whatever I want. Still logging.
I haven't weighed myself since 3/29 because I know I've gained weight. Gonna try to lose it all first before checking, or at least fully get back on the wagon.0 -

Thank you BOTH for the kind words! That really means a lot to me. Seeing as how this is a "confessions" thread, I'll just say that I'm going through a phase IRL right now where I'm not feeling useful or beneficial to anyone. I kind of just slog through each day, one foot in front of the other, and deny that I'm kind of unhappy and just go through the motions.
Perhaps I'm over-compensating here, but I do love this thread: I love the pace, the variety, the topics, and all the great peeps! Real and marshmallow! Anyway, thanks again.0 -
I say things wrong, repeatedly , although phonetically correct all the time. Quesadilla, i pronounce those L's. Salmon, I pronounce that L just to get people to say it wrong in front of wait staff who then correct them.
Also, I do the best worst impressions ever.0
