Yep, me too. I've gotten so many nice clothes from thrift stores. Definitely helps stretch my budget.
I love when I can find a name brand or designer item for dirt cheap.
My favorite is finding things that say new with tag for around $20.00 & it's something that looks like it's been sitting in someone's closet for 10-15 years.
My mom finds all sorts of brand name new clothes with the tags at thrift stores. I don't mind shopping there.0 -
I love Modcloth but I wouldn't dare spending so much without trying them first, and with my luck my cat would destroy it in a day or something anyway... so I go cheap instead.
Confession - I had gelato at lunch so I would resist buying some tonight when we go to the ice cream place for a school fundraiser but my willpower is wavering and I might end up getting some anyway... been craving a good old sundae with caramel and whipped cream in a waffle cone pretty badly. And there's no way it's fitting in my calories today.
And we decided to go to the food truck festival tomorrow so it's fair to say I will probably go over on my calories this week again (I only have 400 saved up this week, although I've been more active so with some luck my TDEE is higher now).
The Food Truck Festival sounds amazing.
I've read that Modcloth has a pretty lenient return policy.

I feel deeply uncomfortable around rich people. Upper middle class even. If they were poor growing up, and became well-off, I am okay. We have a shared experience. If they are rich plumbers,nurses, electricians, or mechanics, I get along just fine.
But if they were born into wealthy families, with college educated parents, and like, that sort of stuff, I have no idea how to talk to them. What could we possibly have in common? I just cant relax, and avoid them whenever possible.
Sort of like when my husband was in the military. There were enlisted, and there were officers. We did not mingle. The officers wives kept their distance, and we enlisted's wives kept our distance from them as well.
NO JUDGING NO JUDGING NO JUDGING. (please?)

We have Sam's club. That place is like a crack house for me. I don't go too often and when I do I only try to buy the stuff I really need. In the past I let my guard down and came home with loads of bulk candies, poptarts, cakes/cookies, etc. "It was not a good day" (as Marie Osmond would say LOL)
We have a tendency to eat at the café when we go there because it's so incredibly cheap. A ginormous piece of pizza and a 32 oz. soda for $1.99. Yes, please! Plus, my husband and daughter LOVE the 4 berry frozen yogurt sundae and it's only $.99!

I am very anxious about annoying people with my breathing, for some reason. I used to have a friend who was a very heavy mouth breather, and I sometimes saw people giggling at her in the halls at school. I sometimes hold my breath in for long periods of time to avoid making any sort of noise. I'm probably just breathing normally, but I'm so blasted paranoid of annoying people hahaha! It gets to the point where I give myself massive headaches. I'm also scared of appearing out of shape by over-breathing, if you get what I mean... so in the winter when it is cold enough to see your breath, I hold mine in if people are around to see how much I'm breathing. DUMB, I know!lalabrucey wrote: »The sound of heavy breathers irritates me.

Ugh I've been eating terrible this week. I keep ending up in the red even with exercise. I met my goal of one pound lost this week but still I need to get my eating in check. I feel terrible because I know I need to control myself.0

Oh gosh, don't do that
... its the *really* heavy breathers that catch my attention not just a bit of audible sound - thats normal 
. I'm talking if you had just run for 20 minutes and then tried to breath only through your nose while you slowed your heat rate down.
Oh no, I'm horrible!0 -
No, I'm the one with the problem there :P I think it just goes hand in hand with my anxiety. I know what you're talking about... and heavy breathers can actually annoy me too, along with people who chew with their mouths open. HUGE pet peeve!lalabrucey wrote: »FluffySandwich wrote: »

It can be Anything!
I was at work reading this thread and didn't get a chance to look at all the dresses from modcloth and 1861 so I spent a few hours after dinner. I love what I saw but feel that I need to hit my gw first (I don't want to buy fancy stuff only to shrink more and it become too big). I was also browsing all the leggings and tights from sock dreams. Now all I want to do is go on a massive shopping spree for dresses, leggings/tights, and cute shoes.

I sometimes check the "missed connections" section of Craigslist in my area in the secret hope that someone will post about seeing me, thinking that I was cute, and wishing that they'd talked to me. It's silly, I know, and if anyone actually did post anything that I thought was about me, I'd never answer. But still...
I blame all the romantic comedies that I'm hopelessly addicted to. 0 -

...'s suggestion about page 409 and cleaning products, I confess that I have no idea what "Formula 409" is. Or was it "Product 409"...?
Susieq_1994, thank you so much for 'picking up the baton' (and in two figurative senses, it turns out! ), and ushering in a symphony of posts regarding cleaning products -- and with some posts appearing on page 409! (Which felt like I was 'living the dream' -- ! 
)
Truth be told, it resulted in my learning of a cleaning product I now feel compelled to try (there's one that "sprays out blue/purple-ish" -- ?!!! -- that'd make cleaning a kind of *party*! (Now they just need to figure out how to 'silly string'-ize it! ))
Oh, and there was also that interesting unexpected bit about "strong rubbing grip"(s), and the seemingly inevitable (you folks didn't let me down! ;P ), mild-as-could-possibly-be, ever-so-brief, toe-dipped-into-the-water -like, moderately 'modest'
'detour'... into... the 'gutter'... 
...which followed in the wake of AOJ's rather unexpected (and yet not so surpising afterall ) 'conclusion' regarding his use of a Magic Eraser (there is a specific pun which lurks, and whose 'presence' it pains me not to reveal, but for the sake of decorum, I shall maintain the dignified illusion of its 'invisibility' )...
...however, knowing AOJ's delightfully mischievous nature, he likely knew *exactly* what would (ultimately) ensue, in the wake of his perhaps-feigned 'innocent' 'disclosure' regarding grip strength, and his superhuman capacity to utterly obliterate a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser, and in one fell 'swipe' (pun intended ;P )... but, alas, we would expect nothing less from this font of smiles and laughter! 0 -

For the first time in 100 days of diligent calorie counting, I did a quick-add of calories. This was National Librarians week and on top of that, tonight was my Book Club meeting. Yesterday I ate 4 chocolate cupcakes. Today I had another cupcake, most of a package of pepperidge farm montauk cookies, and tons of goodies at book club. I feel so horribly bloated! And so ashamed. I had worked so hard to lose my weight and had recently begun maintenance. I suck at maintenance. 0

Earlier this week I ate 3 snack-ish packs of Oreos in one day, 2 right after the other. Major sugar rush that ended with me taking a nap and skipping out on getting ahead in my school work. UGH -_- I don't even like Oreos like that, well I didn't, I guess I do now. I felt terrible and didn't log it, I was much too embarrassed. I also ate a bag of lucky country strawberry licorice earlier that day, it's way too good can't moderate it.0

Not a confession but a rant: my diet has been good for the last few weeks and I've worked out like a *kitten*. My reward? Nada nothing nyet. Not a single lb lost I know weight loss isn't linear but it could've thrown me a motivational bone
*breathes* must not binge away disappointed feelings0 -
So confession seemed as good a place as any of why there is no sex counting for calorie burning? Even if we went with the lowest number listed in the studies- would it not worth be entering the activity. or is this just to taboo or is there some implication fat folks do not have sex? etc... http://www.sexcalculator.co.uk/ Asking based on this info on the net- http://shortstoriesofasinglegirl.com/7-sexy-ways-burn-fat ; http://www.cnn.com/2013/09/17/health/sex-calorie-burn-upwave/ ; http://www.womansday.com/relationships/sex-tips/advice/a1922/8-sexy-ways-to-burn-calories-110923/ ; http://www.menshealth.com/sex-women/sex-workout ; http://www.fatsecret.com/Community.aspx?pa=fp&t=58945 ; http://www.everydayhealth.com/sexual-health/how-many-calories-do-you-burn-during-sex.aspx ; http://www.livestrong.com/article/297695-how-many-calories-are-burned-during-sex/ ;0

Lol sadly no, it seemed to do the trick, but I FELT disgusting afterwards. Though it's kind of funny now.
Mix on serving of cottage cheese with some Hershey cocoa powder and some sweetener (splenda, stevia, sweet N low etc.) Stevia is my sweetener of choice. Mix those together and BOOM. Delicious chocolaty treat packed with protein and low in calories
I confess that cottage cheese reminds me of baby milk vomit

Office Lunch and End of Financial Year Party - Uh Oh....
In my defence this is rare and I did bank calories/kilojoules to allow for most of it.... but before seeing it like this I never would have given it a seconds thought. This is my maintenance kilojoules (approx 7000) for two whole days!!0 -

I blame all the romantic comedies that I'm hopelessly addicted to.
One morning I was walking from the train to work and a man asked me if I wanted to get coffee. I turned him down, I was not interested in him, I have a boyfriend, it was before 8am and I needed to get to work. But this lead to a discussion of ways we'd been asked out, my personal favourite was when someone wrote his email address in a book I was about to buy after starting talking in the bookshop. But a girl I worked with had had a message, not on Craigslist, but in a magazine or paper, saying you were the girl in the robot t-shirt, I was the guy talking to you... She didn't contact him! I thought having been the subject of one of these was pretty cool though.lalabrucey wrote: »The sound of *very* heavy breathers irritates me.

I find it the worst on conference calls. We have one man, he never mutes, but regularly sounds like he's just got back from a half marathon, that or he's REALLY enjoying the call! And he never uses mute, even when there's loads of people on.0
