Your "rationalization" here of why faith is dangerous couldn't be more off-point. Believers aren't all just a bunch of blind sheep without brains. *sigh* You are making a broad, sweeping statement that is accurate about only a very small percentage of believers - and chances are really good that those things would be true…

Your ticker says you are trying to lose 16 pounds. Is that your total weight loss goal? If it is, then I would encourage you to just continue healthy eating and exercise if you do get pregnant. Of course, more important than the advice you will read in this thread is discussing your desire to conceive with your OB/GYN and…

He gave us the Bible which clearly outlines the things that are and are not the kind of person that He wants us to be, actually. But, the daily phone calls (aka prayer) are nice, too. :)

Well said. :)

Pina coladas and getting caught in the rain

So. much. win.

Hubs is a veteran and keeps his hair military-style short. I love it. I don't think I have ever dated any guy that had long hair. I'm the one with the pretty hair in my relationship. :wink:

I'm grateful for a half-day at work and getting to spend the afternoon with my kiddos.

Nope - get rid of em quickly is my motto.

Salad mix, one 5 oz can of tuna, a topping or veggie (tortilla strips or tomato), and dressing. Sometimes I throw in a string cheese and/or a fruit. It depends on how many calories I am looking to consume.

Love the shoes! Love the NSV even more!! Go you!! And happy 30th birthday, early! :flowerforyou:

If I lived on an Air Force base, I would probably love going to the gym, too. :wink: :laugh:

I would much rather be outside doing something active than stuck in the gym. Or, doing some free weights on my own. Maybe it's my ADD? I get really distracted people watching at the gym. lol

False :( I can't seem to get up any earlier than 5:30. TNP has plans for Memorial Day weekend festivities.

^^ This.

I am sort of in the same boat. My thyroid is under active, but barely apparently. I'm not currently taking Synthroid, but am going to see my doc about it. However, some research I've done shows that an iodine deficiency can be linked to under active thyroid. Here are some foods that are a good source of iodine. (Taken from…

You mean there are other ways to weigh in??? :noway:

LOL Yep - I paid attention. :flowerforyou: That stinks that your schedules didn't mesh, but obviously you are doing a great job on your own! Keep up the fantastic work!

Dress #1 is the most flattering to your figure, IMO. Dress #3 is the second most flattering if you want to go with something with more color. The other two dresses are pretty on you, as well, but I think they accentuate your hips more. Not a bad thing, necessarily - but they don't slim you the way 1 and 3 do, IMO.

Picking the kids up from school this afternoon and getting them to try the challenge with me! It will help burn some of their crazy afternoon energy. :bigsmile:

Awesome! It's so motivating to hit goals like that! :) IIRC, you posted about a lady you kept passing while you were exercising and were going to text her about becoming workout buddies. Did the two of you ever meet up to work out?

True TNP played sports in high school

Agreed :)

"Now I spend at least 10 minutes each morning working out with weights"... LOL I wish it was that simple. ;)

Not yet, but soon! :) TNP has had a thread locked on MFP

True - drinking some right now! TNP has been on a cruise

:flowerforyou:

TRUE! TNP ate paste as a kid

False TNP has a graduate degree
