    Hey Everyone, I'm Renée and I'm turning 47 in just over a month. I'm from the US originally but moved to the Netherlands in 1994 and been here ever since. I'm married to a Dutch guy, have 2 stepkids, 4 cats and several fish (it's always changing, the number of fish we have). I am a runner, I love to travel and on my birthday I'm actually starting a year-long education for sports massage. I haven't read all 5 pages of the thread but I will try to catch up to get to know you guys as well.

    Oh I agree! It got on my nerves so bad, but now when I see pictures of it I can't remember why I did it. I'm sure yours would look great either way. :)

    Those threads can be fun when you get to creep out and annoy people. Some people take stuff so srs.

    Hello all...kind of refreshing to post more than two to three word comments.

    I am Ria and almost 41...I have teenaged kids that I had young so I am looking forward to having them leave the best so hubby and I can do some of the things we didn't get around to do by when the kids were little. Mainly travelling more and having adventures I missed out on being a mom in my early twenties. My job is very sedentary so I really look forward to my 1.5 hour workouts and in the summer spend as much time by/in the pool as I can. Want to to know anything else feel free to ask. :)

    i turned 50 this year. I have four kids (one in heaven), ages 12, 10, and 7. I work at a desk all day. Been struggling to get my weight under control. Been overweight for 10 years or so, but struggled with it in my teens and earlier years.

    Good afternoon everyone. I just needed a place to rant where my friends and family can't see it. I was just diagnosed with ASD, a congenital heart defect that should have been caught when I was a baby. Now, I am not that broken up about it, but I have a vacation to Florida planned for the end of august. To all the freaking amusement parks. All four Disney Parks, Universal Studios, and Universal Island of Adventure, Sea World, Busch Gardens, Tampa. Now, I can't freaking ride anything but the kiddie rides. I am ready to scream. So much money wasted. :| Since then, I have been stuffing my face. I am pissed off at myself for eating out of control, but I see no point in carrying on since the main reason for losing weight was for this vacation. Yes, I have been to all the parks before, but that's not the point. GRRR.

    I'm Riley I manage a Thai restaurant my family owns. On the contrary people think in the fashion industry however I just like clothes and I see fashion as an expression of art and oneself. I'm a pretty laidback chill personality. I'm like 95% sarcastic and playful 5% serious. I like to be light hearted and I'm not gonna lie it's fun to mess with people not in a mean way but playfully. If I say anything to offend you it might be intentional but it's all out of love lol.

    I believe that the diagnoses, came just in time; to save your life. Otherwise you might have gotten on a ride, that might have been unbeknownst to you; fatal for you. So please try to view this, at this time; to be a blessing.

    I live in Southern California, the not-so-lovely Los Angeles area. I'm just trying to get swoll, I like buying comic books and guns. I have a lot of one and a few of the others
