Oh my God. That poor girl and the total you know what. I'd post her text messages on my Facebook page (or her friends wedding Facebook page since she probably has one) for everyone to see. If that story is true it's awful and I feel so bad for that girl. I never heard of a wedding where the bride buys the dress for the bridesmaids?
I know. I feel terrible for the other 7 girls who the bride is excluding. I feel really bad for the OP, it's like seeing her go from excited to crushed in the course of a short thread.
I never post anywhere else but had to weigh in on that one. No pun intended.
I just did too
Your story was great.
I am starting to wonder though if that girl is making this up. What bride excludes the girl who had done most of the planning from the wedding itself? But maybe I am naive.
Thank you....and just for the record, that was 100% true
I wondered if maybe this was made up too....but some woman can be insane like that.....
Oh I never thought your story was made up! It was inspiring. It's great to have wonderful friends and this is a great story on how to personally be a better friend. That was incredibly thoughtful and I am not sure I would have thought to do it. But will if I ever get married now!
BTW might blow up now. Someone just defended the bride. The sharks are circling. Could get funny.
Ooooh. This could turn into a time suck, as I now feel compelled to read past the first couple of pages just for that. Danger!0 -
@tatumtracy I had to LOL at this one a little bit. I have animals too but they sit and beg and want to go on the binge 'adventure' with me. *giggle*tatumtracy wrote: »I am so binge eating tonight. I put the dogs in the other room so I would not have any witnesses.0 -
Confession: I've lost 14lbs since I have started, despite having a few 'bad' meals, 'bad' days etc. I think I have had a series of 'wooshes'. Gotta love those!
Confession 2: I've been eating cheese that said it expired on the 14th of this month. It tastes fine, looks fine, smells fine ...

I can't find anyone defending her?
There was a woman saying she might not realize she was being selfish and there might be a miscommunication. Another jumped on her. But it ended quickly.0 -

I can't be trusted with sharp knives. I have a really nice set of knives in my kitchen, but I use the cheap, dull ones I've always used.

Last night all I had for tea (I mean dinner/evening meal/whatever, I'm British) was a slice of cake. So good, don't even regret it as it was the same calories as a normal meal. And I was full afterwards.
I'm currently formulating my 'cake-based meal replacement diet'.
I will totally sign up for that...0 -

I am having dinner at my parents tonight. They are making the same dish they always make when people are over. It's an okay dish but it is really salty. There is no hope for me staying on track today. At least I get yummy pastry for dessert0

I'm glad I'm not the only one that doesn't wash workout clothes every day! I insist that it's because I'm saving water because California is in a drought but....oh well.callsitlikeiseeit wrote: »add me to the gross club, i only have 2 sports bras - one isnt as supportive and i use it for my walk/baby jog (every day), the other is more supportive and used for zumba and the gym (combined 4 times a week). They get washed once, maybe twice a week (but really, once is more common)
if i eat something that will put me too far over my calorie goals, ill save it and add it to the next day.
i dont always log the diet sodas i drink. (but the reg calorie ones i do). dont ask me why, i dont know LOL0 -

Invented a new workout today. Instead of using the total gym, you move it around the room 6 times while you rearrange the room. My shoulders are crying.0

Not to ruin the vibe or anything, but my husband texted me a little while ago and told me my step-daughter had a miscarriage. I am really sad for her and especially sad for my husband. He was so looking forward to becoming a grandpa. I am a little sad too as I had just started warming up to the idea of being MoNana or GrandMo.
sympathy to you and yours

I get really jealous when other people get delicious food, and I don't. My husband is going out for ribs tonight with a buddy, and I'm scowling about the spaghetti I planned for dinner.0

When I have to eat other people's food and don't know the calorie count, I would stress out. Afterwards I would graze until bed time with portions growing in sizes and calories. I would go to bed upset and so uncomfortably full.
What has worked two times now is putting my fork down and thinking about how full I feel if I am eating too fast and without thinking. Gives my brain time to connect with my fullness feeling.

My sister's sister-in-law is 30 weeks pregnant, after 5 attempts at IVF. On Sunday, she was having issues with her kidneys, so yesterday they decided to go and put in some drains. While under anesthetic, she vomited and aspirated. Due to lack of oxygen, she is now in a coma and has been placed on life support. The family was all called last night and the Dr's basically admitted they were keeping he alive as long as they can for the baby's sake, but there is little to no brain activity. Now a baby that was wished for, for so long, is likely not going to have a Mama. Miracles do happen, and we could really use one today!

They were handing out free Quest Bars and protein powder samples at the GNC in the mall I frequent.
A friend grabbed me a strawberry sample and I kinda want to pick up a tub of the stuff. I might when I notice I see it on sale because that price tag.

This has been happening since February, it's driving me crackers. I can't even get my hopes up that I will break the boundary anymore.pofoster21 wrote: »I had a complete breakdown/tantrum this morning. Got on the scales and I'm back up to 214lbs. It's like I'm on some sort of weight bungee cord. I can't get past 212.9lb and I bounce back up to 214lb. I spend all month getting down to 212.9lb and back up again! So complete breakdown, sat crying on my bed for about 15 minutes, got dressed and went down stairs to get breakfast and saw my swimming stuff on the line outside frozen from the frost in the morning. Completely flipped out. Gym bag went across to room, laundry went flying around the room and I just thought bollo*ks to this I'm going to work grabbed my handbag a left. Arrived at work an hour early, no breakfast, I didn't even brush my teeth. Currently trying to find a local therapist, I don't want to go on the happy pills, but I can't take this much more.
Don't let that get you down! I have been bouncing around the same 3 lbs for the last month. I find I get "stuck" in a range for a while then suddenly drop. Just stick with your eating plan and keep moving and it will eventually come off.
But of course if you think talking to someone will help do it! I just wouldn't freak about bouncing around a certain weight. Sometimes you just have to "wait" it out. Now go brush your teeth! You'll feel better.
Yea, I feel really gross. I'm going to have to go buy a toothbrush and paste from the local shop on my break...
On the plus side, though, if that is your hand in one of the pictures I love your nail polish color!
Great minds think alike
We have already established that it is Lois's hand and the nail polish is Barry M, a UK brand.
Morning ladies, sorry I never got back to you last night I was wiped out. The nail varnish shade is 'almond' but it doesn't look very almondy to me. My first reaction was "ooh grey' when I saw it. Lol
Thanks for remembering! You're right, almond wouldn't have been my first guess.
It reminds me of a darker version of my favourite shade "decades of dysfunction" by Orly, which is a greyish pink.0 -

C'mon universe, validating cake & cookies for dinner, and sandwiches for lunch instead of salads IS NOT HELPING
My 'oops this is just one bad day' has accidentally turned into two weeks with overeating and no exercise and very little weight gain. I totally agree the universe is not helping with trying to get the motivation back!0 -
I hate sharing food.
I went to a restaurant with a bunch of gym friends, not realizing it was family style. I ordered some tofu and when it arrived, people started eating off the plate. I realized the deal at that point, and ordered another since by the time the plate came to me it was empty. I was annoyed, but whatever.
The second one came and the same thing happened. I excused myself, implying that I was going outside to have a cigarette, went downstairs to the mall food court and ate a veggie burger and fries. When I came back I said nothing and just smiled and ordered a drink like nothing had happened.
It was that or lose it on the next person who touched my #%€*@& tofu.0 -
Oh god yes. I think it stems from people taking from my family always taking from my plate as a kid.MakePeasNotWar wrote: »I hate sharing food.

It's odd but it's not how I work.
Last year during my vacation (eating out for a week and eating 25% over TDEE in average), I technically didn't gain anything from before I left... but I also didn't lose anything that month, when I should have lost 2 pounds from all the deficit I had the weeks before... so I really gained 2 pounds (and it took me months to get back to my lowest weight).
Unfortunately for me, it can take 3 to 4 weeks for any weight variation to show up on the scale. So sure, I might not gain any weight from that bad 4000 calories day I had two days ago (just some random example)... but then I won't lose anything next week even with a 2500 deficit. Unfortunately, by logging as accurately as possible, I've found that the math is always pretty much spot on from month to month...0 -
Daughter update
She is pissed at me. She is pissed at doctor.
She has lost weight and weighs a little less than she did 2.5 years ago in middle school. Her urine is dilute. I am to toss or hide the scale in the house. I am to toss her full length mirror (It DOES make people look fat - I tried to get rid of it before but she wanted to keep it.) She is getting tested for thyroid, etc to see if there is a physical cause. She is to eat bigger breakfasts and lunches and make sure she has a good protein at lunch time, some spinach leaves do not make a balanced lunch. She is to try to not eat until she feels pain (stop eating before it hurts). I will also take her to a nutricianist to confirm she should be eating 1400-1600 calories a day and that she is getting the right foods. We go back to the doctor in a month. I think she is at a healthy weight - but certainly could gain weight and still be in the healthy weight range. The doctor and I will be in touch. The doctor talked to her about this is a challenging time of life but to try to enjoy it and it is ok if she does not pass all her APs and enter college with basically her freshman year completed already. The doctor suggested she try meditation daily too.
Thank you all.
You sound like an incredible mother! Hope she understands how much you love her and only want what's best for her. Being a mother myself, I hope I'm half as in tune with what's going on with my daughter. Best of luck.
