One of my favorite Friends scenes is when Joey wears ALL of Chandler's clothes, while "commando", and starts doing lunges. Hee hee

LOL @MoHousdon - I totally got that reference. Nestle Touloose... or Nestle Tollhouse.... hee hee Loved Friends. I hope you watched How I Met Your Mother, too, because that show has a LOT of quotable dialogue.

THANK YOU! This is really helpful! I can create something similar, but substitute my goals in there. (I'm terrible at step counts because I don't have a Fitbit or other device - I just use an app on my phone called Pacer, but it can be fairly inaccurate.) I would track minutes exercised, flights of stairs climbed, or miles…

Seconded! Or, I think thirded or fourthed at this point! Great pic!

@xLoveLikeWinterx I can completely empathize with this. When my sister was pregnant with her twins, she went into early labor at week 23 or so. They managed the situation, like yours, until the girls just wouldn't wait any more at exactly 30 weeks. Every day was a test of anxiety and fear and prayer. My sister had tried…

@spamarie Yum! Spam. :) I love Spam! Wait. I think that counts as a confession, too.

@Susieq_1994 Just wanted to say I'm thinking of you and I know you'll get back on track. I missed you on here yesterday, but definitely understand the need to withdraw sometimes. I hope the FND calms down and that you feel much better soon. You will earn that fitbit! I have no doubt - you have so many people who believe in…

It's similar, but better, in my opinon! I love key lime pie!! Very tart and delicious, but only really good if it's truly Key Lime pie... not just "lime pie."

Do any of the wonderful Canadians on here who enjoy mystery/detective novels read Louise Penny's Inspector Gamache series? She's a Canadian author whose novels are set in Canada. Anyhow, I love them. I'm very excited that her newest book in the series will be released on my birthday next month!! Confession - I'm worried…

@Italian_Buju I think waiting a day or two would be good. If they had to deliver the baby early (which would've been necessary if her water broke), she may be dealing with grief if the baby was too early to make it. Just my opinion - give it at least one full day, if not 2. She may still be in the hospital if she had other…

+1 to all those things (except for the c25K thing - I'm not doing that...hee hee)

Welcome back!!! We DID miss you. Congrats on your victory there! I got into the 170's this weekend for the first time in years.... I didn't log it the first day because I thought it was a fluke (I was fasting for some blood work). But then it stuck the next day AND today. YAY!

YAY!! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you guys!! Good luck and I hope it works out for you. You deserve some goodness and excitement!!

YAY!! That is AWESOME! :heart:

Portland is allegedly one of the bike-friendliest towns I hear. But I'm kind of a wuss and am overly cautious, so I don't know that I'd ever really feel comfortable commuting that way. I mean, if I have to be actively worried about dying every second of my commute, I think the anxiety alone would make me miserable. But I…

Hahaha - I honestly didn't know what puppy chow was. Now that I do, I want some. Also, I'm totally impressed at your restraint in only eating 3 pieces of it!! Well done, @MoHousdon !! But seriously, fill your pockets up with that and bring some to me, please.

@gartigliere Welcome!! Congrats on the weight loss and way to stick with it for over a year. It's so empowering to make progress to our goals, isn't it?

I was wondering the same thing. I mean... a girl's gotta have her protein, but this seems extreme. @MoHousdon - stop stealing your dog's food. Or taking dares at work. :wink:

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm glad you get me. Heh

@AngryViking1970 Oh no!!! I'm so sorry! I hope the acute reaction clears up with the antibiotics quickly. Keep us posted on how you're feeling!

This made me snort LOL... Awesome. And welcome Mr. Susie!

@MoHousdon Congrats on your accomplishment in catching up on the thread! That took dedication! :smile: You deserve a Major Award! (<---- This is a reference to the holiday movie A Christmas Story, which happens to be one of my favorite movies... the dad describes the "leg lamp" he wins in a contest as a "major award." Ha!!…

@Tubbs216 LOL Me, TOO! I like to be comfortable and never liked dresses as a kid (or as an adult, frankly... I'm just all awkward in them like I don't know how to move or where to put my hands because women's clothes never have pockets.... and I have to wear shoes that make me feel like I'm gonna fall down, or, at the very…

@MoHousdon - I rarely hit 5K steps per day unless I'm out hiking. I count it as a win if I get over 4K per day... I walk about a mile in the mornings on my way in to work (I carpool with my husband and we park the car, then walk around together for awhile before we each head to our offices). I walk on my breaks (when I'm…

@xLoveLikeWinterx Congrats on getting into the MS program!! Your classes actually sound interesting. I am interested in learning how to program/code but not sure how to go about that what with the monstrosity of student loan debt I already have with my MS in Educational Leadership. Hee hee I want to LEARN ALL THE THINGS.…

I'm with you @bkhamill ! My husband scheduled us to meet a friend of his for happy hour tonight. I'm thinking I'll skip the alcohol and have a slice of pie or something instead. (I don't like drinking calories....they add up too quickly and are never nearly as satisfying as a delicious dessert that fits into my daily…

This is FANTASTIC!! Congrats!! What an accomplishment! I will confess that I'm too chicken to try to commute to work on my bike. It would involve riding over a couple of bridges and along some very non-bike-friendly roads. I'm a "stick to the bike path" kind of girl because of witnessing the idiocy of the bike/car…

Oh!! Hahaha! I'm from the pacific northwest, so there's only one "OSU" here. Ohio? Oklahoma? Nope... only Oregon State. Sorry @LBuehrle8 !! I know you're passionate about your OSU, too!
