  • I'm counting it all. I'd rather overestimate than underestimate. :)
  • LOL, Thanks. Not really obsessing. I've been at this for a long while and lost over 100 lbs. It just kind of hit me this morning and just curious about what others do.
  • THIS! I think out of my whole group of friends from High School, I am the only Christian. The rest are non believers or Buddhist.
  • I don't mind some amount of religion, i.e. if they want to set a 2 minute period to reflect or pray. I don't mind my son learning about other religions, but I don't think religion should be taught in school unless it is a private school. I know that when I was in elementary school and we had the Christmas program we sang…
  • Thank you so much everyone. :smile: My 6 year old son is my biggest cheerleader and comes to the gym with me although he goes to the kids club. Even on days that I'm not feeling like going, he says "But I want to go to the Kid's Club". So off we go and I'm always glad I went.
  • You look FANTASTIC! Great job.
  • Lately I seem to be listening to KMFDM, Nitzer Ebb, Ministry, Front 242 and Nine Inch Nails thrown in there. The only problem is that when I'm jogging, I tend to run harder and my legs are jello after I'm done. :)
  • My coworker who is a marathon runner told me that for every 10 degrees over 65 it can tax your pace almost 30 seconds per mile. We live in Vegas. Heat does play a factor. I have allergies and allergy pills make me lethargic even when they say they are non drowsy. I can push through it, but on days when my allergies are…
  • Your friend needs to gain some perspective. I am that girl. I want to lose 175 lbs. I'm at 103 lost right now. I go to the gym 5-6 days a week and I have my Ipod and do my thing. I smile at people who smile at me. One time, about 3 weeks ago someone made a comment that I overheard (in between songs on my Ipod) about my…
  • Soooo hard. There are a ton of movies I'll watch from any point in the movie, but I don't know that they are my favorite films. But if I had to pick three... 1. Sixteen Candles 2. Pulp Fiction 3. Amelie
  • Ice cream - When I give in, I stand at the counter, take 5 teaspoon size bites and put it away Chocolate Covered Strawberries - Since it's a specialty item I don't have them often. Homemade Lasagna - MMMMMMMM goodness, I haven't had it in about 8 months. Cheesecake - Hubs made one from scratch a month ago and I had a…
  • Congrats. I can wrap it around the top just fine, but there's a gap still around my hips and butt.
  • Whoohoo, someone else that listens to KMFDM. My favorites to run to are KMFDM, Kasabian, Front 242, Nitzer Ebb, but I also listen to The Cure, Love and Rockets and New Order.
  • This is awesome! :)
  • After it took me 11 years to get pregnant ONE time, I told myself I just wanted a 'normal' healthy child. He didn't have to be a genius or be a Professional Athlete. I just wanted him to be healthy and happy. He's now 6. He's not Picasso, but he loves art. He LOVES Legos and will build machines and buildings and buildings…
  • Where do I start? I have an irrational fear of failing as a parent. My parents were craptastic on all levels and I look at what they did and do the opposite. Because of this, I overcompensate with my son to a huge degree. Before I had WLS and I could eat sandwiches, I ate the crust all the way around the sandwich first…
  • I'm envious about the Stone Roses. Ok, really it's full on jealousy. LOL The two bands I wish I would've had the opportunity to see live are the Stone Roses and New Order. I may be able to see New Order later this year.
  • I would say yes, but I get to see the Imagination Movers that same month. :wink:
  • First: INXS - June 1988 Last: The Jesus and Mary Chain - April 2012
  • I had WLS 6 months ago and the one thing I miss. I've pretty much given them up, but I MISS sandwiches. Nutty Oat 100% Wheat Bread, mayo, avocado, turkey, red onion and sprouts or PB & J or BLT's. Sandwiches in general. If I eat a sandwich now it it's 1 piece of bread, 2 slices of turkey, a thin layer of mayo/avocado…
  • I weigh myself everyday. Once in the morning after I go to the bathroom and then in the evening before bed. Both times are naked. That being said, I only count what I weigh on Saturday mornings. So I don't count any fluctuation during the week. I just use the weigh ins as a guideline to keep myself on track.
  • For people that say being obese is a choice, I agree. There are very few people statistically that are obese not by their own choices. I have PCOS and that was a contributing factor and it is making the weight loss a little more difficult. However, I can do it. Being fat is a disability, but no one should get paid for…
