The smaller you are, the bigger the fish look, so good plan there! lol Congratulations on your hard work!

My GPs seem to quit the facility after having a single visit with me, so I feel like their opinions don't matter. Now my GYN, I have seen her for years and we have an agreement. If you see that I have a problem and you have a suggestion/solution, by all means, tell me and let's get it fixed. If you see a problem and just…

Well... on one side, we have the man that gets plastered and mows his lawn half to fully nude. On the other side, we caught someone sleeping in a rolled up porch mat like a burrito. Behind us, we saw their three year old daughter with her underwear around her head, peeing off of their deck. And last but not least, the…

Guilt because he's made bad decisions is not a reason to stay. Ask yourself a few questions... Are you happy? If not, what will it take to make you happy? Is he willing to help you get there? If the answer is no to the first and last questions, there's nothing to save. If he's willing to make a big change after a serious…

Congrats!!!!!

Take it all away. If you and your husband want to watch a show, do it. The kid either watches it with you or entertains himself. After you're done, take the cords with you. Change the internet password or unplug the router and take that cord with you too. Get a lock box for the cords at night. Clearly what you're doing now…

Cheese, lots of it. I'm from Wisconsin sooo... Also ham, hot sauce, and onions, spinach or bell peppers if I'm feeling healthy.

I do an hour a day, 5 days a week, so far, very little results in my appearance, but I'm getting more miles in per hour than when I started!

I'm 222 and I miss onederland! I'd like to be 190 or less by April. I've been hitting the gym every day, but my diet definitely suffers on the weekend.

I definitely used it naked the other day... The guy kept stressing that people should disrobe and who am I to argue? The heat felt nice.

I used it for the first time yesterday just because I kept getting leg cramps on the treadmill and elliptical and was told that the vibrations and heat would help and it did! I'm not sure about all of the other magical benefits, but it definitely helped relax my calves. I'll most likely use it again the next time I feel a…

My favorite answer by far was "back in the manipulative parenting box".

I also hate those elves, but my company is playing Santa and replying to kids' letters. One of them asked, so I needed an answer. It's back to the North Pole to relax, though they do come back throughout the year to check on children.

Where does the Elf on the Shelf go after Christmas? Where can I buy Roth Gran Cru Reserve cheese? Both not my proudest moments, but I needed to know!

I'm a big fan of raw whole milk, but it can have a lot of fat. You won't find anything better for protein, healthy enzymes, and taste though! If you're just using it for shakes and are obsessed with calories, just use water and choke it down.

Every time I go deer hunting, it's freezing. I'll go fishing in the summer. I'll sit in a duck blind in early fall, just please no tree stands in November. This is more my style. Pick which one looks tasty and take it in. lol

Personally, I don't have the ability/urge to get up early enough to hunt, but we do raise our own steers and have them humanely butchered. I also garden and hunt for wild berries. Does that count? Seeing the sun rise while sitting in a tree stand freezing my butt off just sounds so unappealing. Props to you for having the…

Eggs are great. I highly recommend fresh duck eggs if you can find them. They're so much creamier than chicken eggs. I know they're expensive, but man are they worth it!

Trying to look busy at work.

Good news, chances are that cashier spoke to other people that way, they complained, and she was fired, so she's probably not there anymore. I always try to find an older cashier when I can. The young ones can be a little too brash for me. I was having a BBQ and bought 4 cases of beer and was accused of being an alcoholic…

Hah, not even close! But I burn so badly anyway, so going out in public in anything less than a full body suit and a wide brimmed hat usually ends fairly poorly for me.

I take melatonin and diphenhydramine for sleep. I don't wake up hungry at any point during the night, but everyone reacts differently to medications. You could try having a glass of chocolate milk for your midnight snack. It's yummy and filling and it has nutrients that aren't in other common midnight snacks.

I'm in the same boat. I lost over 50 pounds like three years ago and looked and felt great... and then I got lazy... it all came back, every single pound. Good luck!

Just do what you can. If you can't jog, just walk. If you can't do a steep incline, that's fine, do a lesser incline. With each session of walking or jogging or whatever your pace is, you'll get closer to the next step up.

Honestly, you need to tell him point blank how you feel. Not only are you not sexually attracted to him, you're sick of his incessant whining and quite frankly, he's killing himself by being so sedentary. The choice is his, get healthy and be supportive or die alone. Nobody wants a loveless marriage.

I'm fat and I'm the first one to admit that, but even when I wasn't overweight, I had broad shoulders, but I'm tall so I carried it just fine. I could lose every ounce of fat on my body and my shoulders would still be just as broad. And yes, I do have the x-rays to prove it from when I tweaked my back. So no, people…

I brought a can of soup, but after picking out all of the questionable meat like products, there wasn't much left. I don't think Campbell's Jazzy Jambalaya is for me. Now I'm going cubicle to cubicle to find whoever has the citrus fruit I smell.

Well, my situation is a little different than yours. We have no kids, but we're in extreme saving mode on a limited income, so we're still tight on cash. We have put off doing a lot of things, vacations, new cars, bigger house, etc. We coupon, wait for sales, and don't buy things that we don't need. Luxury items are a no…

Chocolate and beer. I will give up eating for the rest of the day just so that I can have my chocolate before bed. Omnomnomnomnom

I'm Irish, so I should drink a lot of beer. I'm also Polish, so I can consume mass amounts of meat.
