  • I wear a D cup and I need a push up bra. I've had 4 kids so they sag down without the added support. They don't look fake or strange. They just look normal instead of floppy.
  • I'm a mom of 4, which is my most important job. I'm a funeral director/embalmer to make a living. ;) edited to spell embalm correctly.....LMAO!!!
  • One mor question....what are they doing while they eat that much? If they are outside playing soccer, they can't be popping popcorn. You say you are on disability so you are home while this is all happening? Just say no, mama. Make them go do something else. Teach them to cook. I'm sure there is laundry that needs doing.…
  • I have 4 kids that will eat everything that isn't nailed down. HOWEVER, when I tell them no, they listen. You don't have a food problem. You have a respect problem. So, what are the consequences when they eat all the food in a day? Because at my house they would have nothing but meals I make until I shop again. Period. End…
  • Sometimes I wonder what the heck my 2 year old is actually thinking....LOL!
  • He stomps all over the kitchen in his work boots and tracks dirt everywhere. I hve it on good authority that he ALWAYS removes his boots when entering his clients' homes (he's a contractor) so I'm not quite sure why it doesn't occur to him to take them off when he enters his own!!!!
  • I'm not a morning person AT ALL, so I don't generally make plans to get up early unless I have no choice. But when I HAVE to get up, I put my alarm where I can't reach it to snooze.
  • I live in a small town so maybe my view is different. My daughter is 14 and can most certainly go to the mall with her friends. Good gracious!!! She isn't 5!!!!! She is an honor student, a varsity athelete and has a black belt in Tae Kwon Do. She is responsible enough to babysit her younger sisters for a few minutes, so a…
  • Just keep moving forward. As you start to lose the weight, your confidence will increase as well. This will lead to more of an "outside world" life and more friends. When you have those days when you feel like quitting, just do it anyway and push through it. Maybe you should look into other activities to get you out and…
  • Sometimes you just have to do things you aren't motivated to do, right? I am most definitely not motivated to do laundry or clean my house...but I have to so I do it. Just look at it as something you simply have to do and take the "motivation" part out of the picture. If you are constantly waiting to feel motivation, then…
  • My husband and I have slept in different rooms for the last 7 years. I am a raging insomniac and he snores like a chainsaw. Now I get to sleep without interruption. We have 4 kids, so obviously sex isn't an issue. We just both do better on sleep when we aren't together. There is nothing wrong with our relationship, but the…
  • I'm willing to bet it isn't just the weight loss he is attracted to. It's probably your new attitude as well. Confidence, take charge-ness, etc... Being 50 pounds lighter has a lot more benefits than just visual. Plus, you'll be able to physically do new things which I bet he likes...:bigsmile:
  • Well..I'll tell you what I tell my kids...get over your picky eating. If all you have is fresh food and veggies to eat and you get hungry, you'll eat it. You have to try new foods about 10 times before you'll develop a taste for them. So choke down those veggies and high protein foods until you learn to like them.
  • I'm not a morning person so I will not advocate getting up at 5am or anything....LOL! but seriously ladies....tell the husband to handle bedtime and you are going to exercise. Then leave. Period. They realy can do it if you make them.
  • My question is WHY are YOU willing to settle for someone like that? I want a guy who only wants me. I'm no willing to be anyone's 2nd choice. Move on and find someone who deserves you.
  • The person who microwaves their leftover fish for lunch....COME ON!!! Or the lady who eats at the front desk and gets crumbs all over the desk ad floor beneath her chair.....
  • Skip the oatmael. I did that after I had wisdom teeth removed and got an oat stuck in a socket. It drove me CRAZY!!! I think you may just have to deal with things that aren't so healthy until your sockets heal. Pudding, cottage cheese, Jello, pasta, etc...
  • I'm about 5'5"...my husband is 5'9". Height is not a deal breaker...
  • Why are there Braille bumps on a drive up ATM?
  • All of your ribs are attached in the back. The bottom ones sort of come out as a Y shape. They are not free floating. They only call them that because they are not attached in the FRONT. You only have a very few bones that are totally unattached...like your patella and the hyoid bone in your neck. I think you need another…
  • Yeah.....that's really not very healthy or sustainable. About 14 pounds in 50 days would be a bit more realistic.
  • Funeral Director
  • I think he is frustrated with your still ongoing eating disorder (and having a yogurt for lunch and then rationalizing 3 hours of exercise as being your "hard day" shows me you are still right there in it) and is using sarcasm to voice his frustration. It is something I would have said to my husband when he was addicted to…
  • I'm so pale I practically glow in the dark! I'm Irish and French. It is what it is. I do not try to tan. It's no good for you. I occasionally "fake and bake" if I want to look a bit tan, but that's only if I have to wear a fancy dress or something....
  • 1. Brought the dog to the vet for her shots. It's always an ordeal. 2. Taught my littlest how to push up a Freeze Pop in the little plastic tube. You have no idea how freeing it is to not have to do it for her. 3. Weeded my garden. Nothing is more organic than growing it yourself!
  • It's because people no longer cook with fresh food. They buy processed garbage. For example, I posted on my facebook page one day that I had chicken out for dinner but couldn't think what to make. I ended up with stir fry with fresh veggies....but most of the suggestions involved boxed stuffing, canned soup, premade mixes,…
  • I wanted zero as I was growing up. God laughed at my plans and now I have 4. 1 boy and 3 girls. I'm so glad I got laughed at! LOL!!!! But my 2 year old is officially "Number Last." Husband had the big V.
  • I've lost about 14 pounds now and I look VASTLY different than I did when I started. I took progress photos and put them in my profile. I haven't dropped a clothing size, but have acknowledged that my size 6's were too tight when I started...:embarassed: And it has been hard.
  • My ex offered to "fax me a check for 1000 dollars" if I would give him my current boyfriend's (now husband of almost 10 years) phone number. I guess he wanted to call and harrass him or something... Not the brightest bulb, that one....
  • As I read through these posts, I'm quite happy to see I'm not the only funeral director, and that all the rest are also women. I live in a backwoods little town where it is sort of an old boys club. They can't believe I can move a body or do anything harder than answering the phone. It's good to see!!!!
