  • I'm in my thirties, divorced, and remarrying. My new SO is much more open minded, so we are doing it totally different. I'm still in the planning stages of how the ceremony will go, but i know that I am wearing a wine and copper colored saree instead of the traditional white or creme colored American wedding dress. I am…

  • Hey thanks for sharing! I knew it couldn't just be a US thing! I'm glad your move helped you start to get healthy. We (my fiance', daughter and I) have been thinking of doing the same thing. We both came here from larger cities and enjoy the faster pace. We had actually been considering moving north and Canada was on the…

  • I have thought about just not going to family functions anymore. I don't want to give up on them. I guess I just keep thinking next time I see them it will be different. Maybe if I am around them more they will understand me better. Of course, this never happens. I guess it's just the last thing I've held onto since my…

  • Extremely funny indeed. I always have this experience over the holidays and I have learned that, at least when it comes to my family, you don't say anything about being on a diet or watching what you eat. If you do, they tend to spend the rest of the day talking about how your eating habits or trying to coax you into…

You should definitely ask her about it. Assume…

  • I'm right with ya. Although I can't really go to a gym due to lack of funds and babysitting help, I did just start this great Crunch video I found on Netflix. It's a combo of Yoga and Pilates. It's really tough but low impact which is great cause I have a back problems. When I started it the other day I felt so silly and I…

  • I have been doing this very thing for only three days and you are so right! I too had no idea how much junk I was eating and over eating! I am being so careful now. Also, I have figured out that I can earn certain foods I really like as long as I burn off more calories than are in that certain food. Tonight, I really…
