Is it a T-shirt that holds my spoons for me?
-
I don't jog because it hurts at least 4 places on my body, I can't throw cash down on a new pair of fancy shoes and a new sports bra, and I can't afford to sprain my ankle again, since I only have gravel to run on. That, and I'm afraid of the coyotes laughing at me. ;) Honestly, it is just really uncomfortable, sometimes…

Why cant I be a "pear shape" and still want to get rid of the flab on my thighs and hips? I can't say I have seen pear hate, but I just saw apple hate here. :(

My mother-in-law once told me she was amazed that I would wear a sleeveless shirt, and that she couldn't wear one because she has arms like me. I just looked at her in confusion and asked "Do our arms not fit in the sleeves of a sleeveless shirt?!" She got flustered and stammered out "Well, no, it's just that we have…

I went and checked the tumblr site out, but when I clicked on the Fit test for Insanity, it brought up Max Interval. Is this the Fit test? If so, I'm going to die if I ever attempt that series. :noway:

Y'know, I wanted to pick this apart and hate it, but I can't. It's all true, and a lesson it took me forever to learn. But there is nothing quite as satisfying as watching someone try and get at you because you aren't responding to their attacks anymore. Eventually they get baffled and wander away with their own…

Having filed for bankruptcy as a married couple, I am not comfortable casting harsh judgement against people when I don't know their circumstances. And FYI, we filed because we were swamped in med bills after a horrible round of illness. Not all people who file do so because they are irresponsible. But rock on with your…
-
How long ago did they file? Why did they file? Have they learned from that experience? Do they know how to avoid it again? Must be nice to live in a world that is all black or white. Unfortunately, so much grey gets missed.
-
Did I say it was an expectation? No. I said after a *bad* pregnancy. To me, that would include pregnancies involving bed rest, or restricted movement, pre-term labor, difficult twins...all situations that can lead to an increase in calorie need but the diminished ability, or complete lack, of movement and exercise. Having…

Maybe they could help you lose weight or whatever but are obese because: - they just had a bad pregnancy and haven't shed all the weight yet - they are coming off of an injury that sidelined them and they didn't anticipate the difference in calories in/ cals out - they have already lost 150+ pounds and feel they have so…

Looks good/=/ in shape or fit or knows how to work out. Like I have said before, my DH is thin as a rail...but my fat *kitten* can bike farther than him in a heartbeat. He's skinny because of genetics, with muscles from work, but no cardio capability nor experience working out. But, y'know, they look good, rights? So they…

Well now I know what to make for supper when my mother-in-law comes to visit. Now, was she allergic to coriander or capers? Oh well, better throw both in, just to be safe.
-
Agreed.
-
If I was lucky enough to have the money for a trainer and time and money for a gym, maybe. It doesn't have anything to do with their weight, and everything to do with whether they know anything, especially since I have some challenging injury issues. So it would solely depend on their interview and personality, not the…

My ticker is a saying I use to remind myself not to anchor myself to my past anymore than my future, and that each day offers a new possibility.
-
I don't know if anyone here would be interested in a recipe for Congee (rice porridge), but I have one if they are... it is thick and creamy, slightly salty, very filling and flavorful, and infinitely adaptable. :)
-
I read an excerpt and decided it was most likely not for me. Not because I'm a prude, but because the "bdsm" was trite and bland to me. As were the characters. I am, however, able to appreciate that people will like books that I do not like, and I am able to not label them with stupid labels. And yeah, real-life "BDSM" is…

When I used to post on Mommyboards, we actually had a name for a double belly...B belly. Big round bellies were D bellies. And oh how I loathe being a B belly. My DH used to lecture me on wearing my pants too high and what not, until I showed him how horrible my pants make me look if they sit in that "crease". :( Mine…
-
I did both and it came back as large. I'm not surprised, because my ribcage is *huge* without any padding, my hips get their own ZIP code and my feet are a size 10. I'm actually the opposite of you, OP...I'm a little saddened by the fact that I will never be a little petite thing. No matter how much weight I lose, I'll…

The last quarter of my pinkie finger is missing and the scar goes down to my second knuckle. I was washing a glass and it just completely snapped. I had to have it sewn back together, and the tip of it still died. I don't have feeling on the outside of the pinkie. I have a 4 inch scar up the inside of my left calf from a…

Well that's a typical turn...don't like the debate, then turn it to the hyperbole. Have a great night, y'all. :)
-
I said it was tacky, in my opinion. I didn't say no one could do it. I have a problem with institutionalized greed. You do not. Cool with me. I am not worried about generosity, I am saddened by what people will do to access it.
-
The total amount made, not the initial cost. Should be obvious.
-
$600 is not "an extra buck or two", but nice try.
-
I'm not sure where I "got personal" but okay. The other conversation I am having has nothing to do with debate, just friends laughing with each other.
-
What is your problem with reading comprehension? I specifically pointed out in one of your previous statements that "in lieu of gifts" makes a large distinction. Most of the dollar dance receptions here expect both. That air of entitlement is what I object to.
-
The OP isn't even engaged. She was just curious.
-
I was comparing the "Well, it is cultural, so its okay" idea. I can debate an idea on the internet with strangers just fine without taking it personally. In fact, I'm having a conversation on a different site that is hilarious and enjoying it as well. Can you?
