^^^^^ This is assinine.

I vote for this one! I have one that is made similarly to this and I love love love it! It pulls in your tummy and the rouching on the sides makes you look slimmer through the middle.

Contact the restaurant and ask where you can get a copy of their nutritional info. I've done that on a few occasions and always been provided with it.

No, and even if it did, I don't think working somewhere for 1 day counts towards anything significant. It was your choice not to work for someone abusive. I know it's hard to see things from a clear perspective when your emotions are overwhelmed, but sweetie, you didn't do anything wrong or anything to be ashamed of. Chin…

The link you gave me is GREAT... exactly what I need. Thanks so much!

Thank you for the responses. I'm clueless when it comes to "lifting". I just really have no idea where to start. I had a knee injury about a month ago that caused me so much pain I could not walk without crying. I took some Physical Therapy as well as seeing a sports medicine doctor, and I'm past that now, but haven't had…

I do eat out a lot. However, it's not the weight loss that's the problem. I've been losing weight. I'm more concerned about the shape of my body. Even though my weight is going down and I'm getting thinner, it's the shape that I"m having a problem with.

DO NOT tell your Mom what your GF said and don't tell your GF what your Mom said. I'm not saying lie to them, I don't believe in lying, period. You also don't have to tell them every detail of what the other has said. While I love my family and am close to them, I do not need their approval on who I date. A relationship is…

Haha... love it!

I was in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade with my high school band. I was a foster mother to 16 children during my 20's. I really like to bake and cook, but only if I'm doing it for other people.

I think it's neat... What does it look like?

:o( I hope you've made progress in this area of your life as well as your weight goals.

I often think I am "not enough" of something positive, or "too much" of something negative.

I've never read through an entire "success story" til I read through yours. You look fantastic, but even more than looking fantastic, it seems from your post that you're that way inside as well as outside! I know that self-esteem really comes from inside, so I'm not sure how much the accolades help, but for what it's…

I was not: A cheerleader, on the Math team, a sports player or in the choir. I was: A "fringe" kinda girl who often got referred to as a "hippy", wore combat boots with baby-doll dresses and pigtails with black clothes. ;o)

marieautumn- Homecoming Court? I got skipped.

engineman- Class Clown

Not cool. Why? Because I don't have the need to be compared to ANY other woman. Especially not an ex.

Yup.... exactly!

LilMissDiva- Ballet instructor

I manage a Psychologist's office. Have done so for 9 years now. ;o)

Not that either... but at least that SOUNDS interesting!

No to both.

MrsHaskell- Renaissance Faire performer?

jlr_12- Make-up artist?

Nope. ;o)

amymrls- Retail clerk?

Try using it where it says [IMG][/img]

Ahh... one of my biggest problems as well. When I'm struggling with depression, my go-to is always food and shopping, which leaves me fat and broke. Sometimes when I get one thing under control the other gets worse. :o( I second the idea of what another person said though... get rid of junk food in the house, and get some…

I did it in pretty good on Easter. Breakfast was at a buffet... I had a biscuit covered in gravy, an individual quiche, some bacon and some sausage, a dinner roll, icecream sundae with hot fudge and hot caramel, and a chocolate dipped strawberry. Lunch was a hot brownie sundae at Chili's, and then I had dinner at my…
