  • Deal-breaker.... ive actually gone on a couple of dates (with the same person) who kept giving me a peck-kiss.... i asked why and he said 'oh i know im a bad kisser'. which i found odd... but he was right and yeah, it just wasnt going to happen.
  • We have a Wii, PC, Kindle Fire, cell with games and some other small handheld cheap games from walmart.... my children do not sit in front of them and veg out. When they are asked to save & log off, they do so. They have a limited amount of time on video games/gaming systems and it is strictly enforced. They don't complain…
  • Single and pretty darn happy about it. Im working on rediscovering a lot of things I tried to change about myself in order to please/keep other people. Now, Im focusing on me.... take a really strong personality to change that in my life right now.
  • Wait, so one free movie pass.... I get to be in the dark, alone, without screaming griping children for say 2 entire hours.... Who Cares!?!?!??! I'm eating popcorn with butter and taking a damn nap!
  • So glad to hear of people coming, sticking around AND helping others. WAY TO GO SANDY!!!!
  • Goatee :) Your eyes are very striking and without it, your lovely mouth isn't as highlighted as it is with the goatee... gives some contract and another focal point, other than your eyes. I'm a dorky artist LOL forgive the longwinded explanation. :drinker:
  • I've watched that show and it was pretty powerful seeing young people struggle as I did and they show those moments that no one wants to share... when you feel like it's not working and that you're so different than everyone else... that whole emotional component was great!
  • When I was at my heaviest (well, and a good while up to that point), I used to have a skinned spot on the back of my index and middle finger knuckle from shoving my hand into pringles containers and my hand being so fat that it barely fit. Near the height of my weight increase, my hand no longer fit and i would have to…
  • "No, really.... here... YOU take the hotdog and throw it down the hallway. I swear, totally like that. True story, chick." Never, ever, ever, ever heard this.... but I think it could be bad!
  • I make steel cut oats as overnight oats all the time. 1/4 cup of mccanns steel cut oats (not bob's brand), 1/2 cup unsweetned almond milk, 1 packet stevia, 1 tbsp of unsalted nutbutter (i use cashew quite often), 1/2 cup of greek yogurt. I had trouble with them at first. I eat grains, I eat carbs... I do my best. I dont…
  • I'd probably have to say, "Hey there... yeah, it's me" because by the time I hit my goal weight, I will have lost 187 lbs. and be way less than 1/2 of the size I was when I met him. I doubt he would recognize me at that point if we just passed one another on the street.
  • I was extremely heavy when I got pregnant (about 288 lbs.) with twins. I was exceedingly sick and had to end up being put on a special diet with no salt, very low amounts of sugar and carbs and tons of water (had very high BP and out-of-control gestational diabetes). Until they got my BP under control and my g-diabetes…
  • OMG.... keep those cameras out of my bathroom in the morning!!!!! As you can see, I barely had time to put on any makeup! :mad: teeeeheeeee
  • My boys still napped through age 6. Every so often, they will be extra tired from a morning of playing in the water or jumping on the trampoline and we all take a nap - it's kinda rare now though and they are 7 & 1/2. ETA: My boys bedtime during the school year is 8pm-6am; during summer 8:30pm-7am.
  • Wait!!!!!!!! what happens if I just eat this? ^^^^^ ZOMG, i'd probably implode and be a negative matter person :noway:
  • Love seeing transformations like this. Mine has been so gradual and now I'm stuck (again). Having the hardest time finding the balance between life and MFP and stress and binge eating. Your pics are so motivating though!!!!!
  • My office place is extremely professional - no shoes that go between the toes, no bare arms, no cleavage, nothing too tight or more than 2" above the center of the knee cap, etc. No one in my office dresses the way the OP describes because our HR person would have us in the office going over the employee handbook and…
  • Oh my gosh! I'm not a tall woman (5'6" when I stand up straight... I'm a sloucher LOL), but my son is much like this poster's daughter. My boy just turned 7 and he is 4' 5" tall. Dunno what I'm going to do when he's taller than me next year!
  • I'm the same as the OP. Don't care who wants to add me or why.... that's too much talking. FR, add or deny, move on. If they wanna say something, awesome.... if it's long, my ADD kicks in and I don't read all of it anyways.
  • I'm an Amanda too.... but I don't hate my name -- at all. I think it's a hella sexy name
  • I started in Jan 2011 (MFP in Aug 2011) and when I get to my GW, I will have lost 187 lbs. :)
  • I completely agree with this. Nutella seems awesome, but we only allowed it as a rare snack, not an everyday thing. My children went through that attempt at being picky eaters. I say attempt because I squashed that ASAP. If they didn't eat, they didn't eat, but I let them know that what they were served was what we were…
  • Big fan of Adrian Brody!!!! Along with Alan Rickman and Mike Patton (lead singer of Faith No More) and Flea (crazy as hell and a little hardbody!!!!)
  • I do this all the time with my boys! They are my guys... before all other guys. Sometimes when we're getting ready to go out, they will stop and tell me 'woah mom, your butt is all small now and you look HOT" 7 year olds are funny! They even took me to a Mother's Day Tea and we all got dressed up
  • *to a naked, aroused partner* "Ohhhhhh, well.... um... at least anal wont hurt. so that's a good thing, right? we should probably start with that"
  • A typical day before MFP would have been: Breakfast - Super Sonic Breakfast burrito with 3 packs of salsa, a large chili cheese tater tots with onions and mustard, a route 44 dr pepper with cherry and vanilla, a handful of hersheys kisses and 2 cups of hot chocolate with marshmallows Snack - a big grab bag of doritos with…
  • Love it!!!! It's so fun to go to someplace super cheap and find a 3 pack of sports bras on sale! They might be weird colors but who cares. My tiny ladies stay where they need to stay... not that they could go far :D
  • Connective tissue jelly is my fav.... put a few beef shanks in the crock pot all day and let all the gristly bits break down. Gosh that makes some yummy gravy. I'm from a deeply rooted Native American background on my father's side. We use everything for everything. No parts go wastes even if we have to use fishbones as…
  • I, like others, LOVE big noses... I'm also a fan of guys with wide palms but shorter fingers (no long alien looking fingers); guys with very round butts (i call 'em Poppin Fresh butts LOL); and anyone that has just a bit of grey hair around the temples and slight crow's feet when they both are and are not smiling. I like…
