I know you said all girl bands, but Lacuna Coil and Flyleaf have pretty frickin' amazing female leads.

<3

I'm probably missing the joke here, buuuut maybe teach your kids about life and death?

Go for it!

Im hoping it will improve my self esteem, making me not so socially awkward haha So far its been working :)

Just to offer a less negative viewpoint, You said she is newly single after never really experiencing the whole dating game, she probably is very anxious about having asked someone out and having him say yes. Also maybe she never implied to the guy it would be both of you and he assumed you would be there too since your an…

And Dial up internet... my parents would get soo mad because the dial up would tie up the landline phone. when they bought the program that would show if someone was calling while online (caller id i guess lol) it was the greatest thing :D also, when it would connect at 26.4 kb/s instead of 24... oh happy days haha

Congrats you look awesome! Your waist is so much more defined now :flowerforyou:

Less prepackaged meals and more ingredients for cooking. Also my rice cooker gets used almost everyday. Ill cook brown rice and at the same time use the steamer bowl for veggies. Also I dont keep any bad snack food on hand anymore. If its in the house Ill eat it until its gone (chips,soda, cookies, crackers,…

Great progress but one thing... Smile! :happy:

LOL I am currently wearing a navy blue button up with black pants and brown work boots. Its my mandatory work attire, guess the boots could have been different but these were the comfiest! Hope everyone's minds don't implode at this mental picture :laugh: Pet peeves: -dirty stained Uggs. You just paid like $200 for them…

Im 24, 5'6", from Canada and current weigh 152lbs. Right now Im wearing a size 10 from Marks Work Wearhouse (dont judge hehe, my company gives me discounts to buy work clothes there). They fit well in the waist but are getting baggy in the legs/bum. I just bought a nice pair of Mavi jean shorts size 31. When I was 18, I…

I used to have the same cartridge piercing and it would flare up the same way a few times a year. Good job on switching to a barbell, they are far less likely to cause trouble because they are straight and not curved. I think warm sea salt soaks might be beneficial as long as the salt concentration isnt too high. It will…

I saw the bass player for the band "My Darkest Days" walking through the crowd after their set and I told him what a wicked job they did and how much I was enjoying the festival. He said I made his day and gave me a kiss :smooched:

I have never watched Dr Oz, but I can confirm the 2 above me as being correct in their statements. Tool kicks serious butt, and I have been fortunate enough to see them AND a perfect circle live in the past 3 years :drinker:

I have sensitive combination skin, and I absolutely love Dr Murads cleanser. It's more of a gel than typical cleanser and it's never irritated my face once. There is a whole line of products for different skin types as well as anti aging :) I buy it at Sephora but the nicer/newer Shoppers Drug Marts carry it as well.

Umm are you me?! Haha this describes my body exactly.. I call myself peanut shaped because I'm all love handles and saddle bags. I think I'm actually an apple, all my weight loss has been from legs arms and face, none from the belly yet :angry:

I love shopping but not for clothes. Every time I go to purchase new clothes, especially pants/shorts, I am reminded of how far I still need to go to be happy with myself. I plan on getting a new wardrobe once I reach my goal size though, I really look forward to it :)

Bodyrocktv has a lot of workouts on it that usually don't require any gear. You could also pick up a fitness mag that has a bodyweight routine in it, browse it before buying lol Annnnd at the risk of being scorned by rabid heavy lifting fans I also suggest picking up some "girly pink dumbbells" lol a pair of 5 or 8 lbs is…

I grew up on a daily farm. Every season I would make friends with one calf and when it grew up it would be much nicer and calmer than the others lol I had one special calf though for 4H. Her name was Sweetie Pie and she had a twin named Sugar Plum... I loved those cows haha. My older sister also had a few lambs that were…

I've been bbqing all summer but I bake a lot in the winter. My best advice for you is to sear the chicken before baking it. Heat up a frying pan and quickly brown all sides before putting it in the oven. This keeps the meat juicy and reduces baking time :) One of my favorite meals is to cut up veggies (potato, carrots,…

I don't think taunting him using homophobic comments is the right way to go. I really really dislike how if someone is being stupid then calling them gay (or implying it) is the cool thing to do.

Purple, royal blue and lately for unknown reasons, coral!

The orange kitty in my display is Fritz, named for the old x rated cartoon cat lol. He's +15 lb and so affectionate. He also answers to: Froopy, Froo Froo,Sir Fritzington, Froopado... My other baby is a very fluffy tan and black tabby, named Merlin. We thought she was a boy at first and named her for the wizard from the…

I never log it but it is definitely a workout. The bf jokes that he will help me with my cardio anytime I want to :laugh:

What a sweetheart!!! :love: Thanks for sharing your kitty story! We rescued a little orange furball from the spca a year and a half ago. He was maybe 2 weeks old and the spca told our neighbor he was too young and would be put down immediately if left there. Thank heavens she took him back and asked us if we wanted a…

For whatever reason, strength training doesnt count as calories. I guess it's more to keep track of your reps / weight. If you search in cardio, you'l find a few entries for weightlifting and Calisthenics etc. It will count then :)

Hello Everyone! I watched a few videos you suggested. I found the Intro to Squat VERY helpful. Thanks for sharing. Today I attempted squats again (yesterday was an arm day lol) annnd I set up my webcam to watch my form. I did 3 sets of 10, as my bar had no weights and 5 didnt seem like enough work. I will do the 5 x 5 when…

Sometimes if Im going to go over, I will log the offending food in the next day of my diary lol That way it is accounted for, but I dont feel as guilty lol

I quit smoking 4 weeks ago. I wasnt a heavy smoker, maybe 6-10 a day orr a pack if I went out drinking. It took me almost a month of buying a pack, having a few, getting angry at myself, throwing it out... and then buying another pack a few days later lol I have such bad willpower :embarassed: I really want this time to be…
