I've never gotten a dime and I have a special, in-demand type.

I still do but I try to get in the "good" ones first before having the others.

Wow -- not divorced, but wanted to congratulate and continue to encourage everybody!

Yes, my wedding ring (size 12) will never fit my 7/7.5 finger again -- it is inscribed so having it resized is not an option. I bought a chain for it and wear it occasionally.

Most but usually not all unless I am really hungry.

Love it! Have only one ex, who has not seen me since I started this journey. That would be awesome!

Repeat after me: Never show up hungry. Have some carrots, pretzels, a small piece of fruit, or something in your stomach so you're not starving when you arrive. Dress to impress -- no stretchy bottoms!

I've never been a member of either, but hopefully it will carry over the better features. Hopefully there won't be any attrition of the staff.

Co-sign on a 100-calorie bag of popcorn. Jolly Time makes one with only 95 mg sodium ... yum! Other suggestions -- light cheese with half serving of crackers; medium piece of fruit; half-cup of Sf/FF pudding or cup of SF/FF gelatin; 20 almonds.

I live down the street from an ALDI and ... I can't. The lines are not managed well. I'd rather jump in the car or walk to the ShopRite a mile away because I usually will get out sooner. But I will look in the store during my next vacation ... a lot of my friends' diaries include ALDI products.

I saw this on Facebook a few days ago and thought, WTH? If five people are going to split the cost and calories of the deal, well and good. But I can see a lot of COEs jamming up drive-thrus across America to take advantage of this deal, take everything home and finish everything off.

Copying my response to a similar thread -- Breakfast -- McDonald's Big Breakfast, complete with second hash brown and orange juice, OR huge bowl of Cheerios with added sugar, OR *two* Dunkin Donuts Banana Nut Muffins (when I joined WW and found out the point value I was horrified!) Lunch -- three slices of pizza, or the…

Three years ago I went to see some family members for the first time since I started losing weight. They called me beautiful to my face, but I found out recently that they held some type of caucus once I went home and agreed that I didn't look well, to put it mildly. Whatever. I am not living my life to please others…

Bravo to you! I wish I had your mindset when I was 18. I didn't get my head together until I was 31 and so much had already passed me by. As an aside -- don't look for love. It's so much better when it finds you. :heart:

I met with a trainer who has suggested two rest days a week and that I rest from exercise my entire Christmas break. Help me Father!

I ran across the name Harmony Excellent in some student records.

Worked with a guy whose last name was Booth. Married a woman named Candy (she kept her maiden name professionally). Had a co-worker name her daughter Alize'. The parents of Adolf Hitler, JoyceLynn Aryan Nation and Honszlynn Hinler Jeannie just had baby number four and DYFS grabbed him up before they could leave the…

Flintstones Complete. (Yeah, I'm a big kid.)

One year when I was particularly motivated to keep losing, I got up on the last day of my trip and it was pouring. I grabbed my tape player and walked down the hall, up the stairs, up the next hall, up the next flight, etc. for 45 minutes. (Of course, this will only work if you're in a hotel. Not a heavy drinker, but I…

Congratulations and best wishes on your new job! One of my stand-bys is black beans and brown rice. Steam the rice over the weekend or the night before and put in a container. Microwave for 3.5 minutes in broth. It smells good and keeps me satisfied for hours.

That sounds like a normal range for someone her height.

I would love to crack the decade I am currently in.

I had to change out my shoes twice -- went from a 12W(W) to a 12M and am now an 11M.

((Hugs)) It happens to a lot of us. Sounds like you already have a counterattack plan. <<< 1.5 epic fail days on my belt this week >>>

My dad is a colon cancer survivor -- four years now and still going strong!

Only if the reviews are very good ... and I want to listen to the audio first.

I have a pair of size 30W jeans -- that one memento piece. I thought it would be a miracle if I ever got to size 12. I wear 6/8 or small/medium depending on how the garment is made.

Many years ago I overslept for a doctor's appointment and agonized over the choice to skip my bath (apartment had no shower) and be on time or bathe and show up a few minutes late. I chose the latter and did have to submit to an exam by the doctor. The nurse in the room said, "Thank you for being clean." I have never had…

Yes, have done this for a long time. I can't always pre-track my exercise calories because I don't always know what I will do in advance.

Unless you have an allergy, a little should definitely be OK. Enjoy!
