Personally, I'd back out. Any semi decent person would understand that extreme event location changes and date changes would mean that some guests have to cancel. But whatever you decide, let your friend know asap so they have a fair amount of time to fill the spot if needed.

I've pumped my own since my adolescent years (my mom would have us do it once in a while when we were younger). There was one gas station that had an attendant where I used to live, and I tried to go there in the winter months when I could, but it was usually too out of the way. One time as a young teen, I was visiting…

38 pages read. Skipped the other posts and went straight to all the answers. Really interesting thread! :) ^ I've done that. My neighbor passed away. She was only 15 and like a little sister to me (I was 25 at the time). My daughter was 3 and adored her. My daughter constantly asked to visit her grave that first year, and…

I reached my ultimate goal but will not/cannot go down any lower or I will be underweight. I would never hear the end of it from my husband if I went lower, because he's paranoid about my health (I had some serious non-weight related health issues in the past) 3 things I don't like; >thigh gap - I'd rather not have one.…

I went to Spain on a business trip for 2 weeks once. I lost around 10 pounds on that trip without even trying. There happened to be a metro strike going on while I was there, so public transportation got a little tricky and I opted to walk a lot instead of wait a lot in the station just to ride a super packed metro (I got…

Walk to kitchen > open fridge > remind yourself that you're on a diet > walk away >repeat Do this until your walking back and forth has earned you enough calories for your PMS craving. Seriously though, I do that... until my husband reminds me that I can earn calories back, and I go on a walk or hike to make up for it. The…

go to MY HOME, then settings, then update diet/fitness profile to set it for maintenance. I just reset mine. I'm 5'7" and just under 118 lbs. It calculated me at 1610. I've been upping my calories a little at a time to find my maintenance number, and I'm currently at 1600 (sedentary).

My weight fluctuates 3-5 lbs. 3 lbs max when I weigh myself in the morning, but it fluctuates a little more if I weigh myself later in the day or evening.

It was, mgalvin12 :D Thank you Lynn_Glenmont, that helps a ton!!

28 lbs since the day I started logging (today is day 98). I don't intend to lose anymore though, just tone up a bit.

Steel blue dumbo plakat betta that acts like a dog (most social betta I've ever seen and I've had many) Tortoiseshell cat that has a beige diamond covering almost her whole face. I originally got her because of how unique she looks. When we moved countries, we took her with. Bonus - she's a great hunter (REALLY useful in…

I lost 25 lbs from the time I decided to start losing, and I only have 2 more lbs to my final weight goal (then I want to work on toning). I started in June, so I didn't lose it in time for beach weather, but... there's always next year :D

I get it and I'm like that. My husband will ask me "do you have enough credits?" and I might respond "I think I can afford it" when we're trying to figure out if some random snack or eating out will fit into my daily calories.

o.O either you are gullible, or we are. No worthwhile relationship is going to start with "Spend money on me to prove your love"

First place I noticed any change was my arms and fingers. It wasn't a visually obvious difference, but the rings my husband got me for my 30th birthday earlier this year started to fall off in my sleep, and shirts that were previously snug around my arms loosened up.

I met my husband online, but not a dating site. We met in a chat on a site for learning Japanese. We've been married for 12 years now, so I can't really say I have bad stories of my own. However, my mom did do the dating sites. First long term relationship from a dating site, cheated on her after 5 or 6 years together. I…

Do you have hashimotos and have you had your complete thyroid panels done? NDT actually works well for some people but is less effective for others. The only way to know is to try, but doctors advise against it because manufacturers cannot guarantee a steady amount of each hormone. I don't have a thyroid at all, and it…

Part of my job is fool monitoring, so no choice here, lol. Most of the people in this room LOVE spicy stuff. Food is NOT allowed on the call floor. But several of them get these spicy wings from a food truck and always eat them in this SMALL room. These particular wings may not be volcano spicy according to them, but the…

coworker 1; Clips nails at his desk Very condescending tones (his natural way of speaking) cusses and complains 24/7 jumps queue If he gets aggravated (70% of his calls) because the person has an accent or doesn't understand his instructions, he talks VERY loudly so that no one else can hear their own phone conversations.…

Not a meal... but olive oil. We almost never use oil, so I never bothered checking. I thought I could throw a salad together this morning before work, but found out we were out of lettuce when I went to make it. No problem, I have those little 200 calorie things of raviolis. So I grabbed the cauliflower rice I just got to…

@garber6th I should clarify - I don't consider us close enough to get too in depth with my opinion because I don't know them well enough to know what will upset/offend them. I have some long term friends that I can be quite blunt with and not upset them, but we do talk about a lot of issues/medical/personal stuff. If it…

Where I used to live abroad, there was a restaurant called Piccadilly. We'd go there quite often, and I almost always got a salad with their house dressing (a kind of cheese dressing). It's probably not organic, but it was made daily and my favorite dressing ever. I haven't had it in years and wish I had the recipe…

I've been wondering that exact thing. My pedometer measures the bump of each step. I've had some that were very inaccurate (even the same company but perhaps with manufacturing flaws), but for the first couple of weeks I had this one I tested it against trails and roads that I know the exact length of (it has a distance…

That sounds like an active and very interesting job! I normally have my pedometer set to calories, but a google conversion puts me at about 1-2,000 steps the entire work day. I sometimes think I need a more active job, but I have chronic pain and so I go back and forth on that idea.

I wasn't asking if I should. I said it was just a curiosity thing. I'm asking if anyone else has done the same.

Grievance; I went to refill my levothyroxine (t4), only to be told it's not due to refill yet. Ok. While there, I asked to confirm another medicine (t3) that I had just stopped taking was cancelled so it doesn't get unnecessarily refilled. You know those people that work the registers at the prescription counters? counter…

You're awfully serious for someone who wants to keep the thread goofy... Repeat after me; Goooosfraba.

I have a coworker who drinks a big bottle of instant iced tea and a bag of popcorn for lunch EVERY.SINGLE.DAY. I've been working here for 2 years, and when I was training 2 years ago, we'd always smell popcorn at a certain time every day (the training room is next to the cafeteria). 2 years later, he's still going strong,…
