Honestly, I'm more concerned with your mom's refusal to be responsible about her diabetes than her undermining your weight goals.

She needs to counter with her own stipulations. lol Like, he has to get hair implants if he starts losing hair.

Your friend sounds like he has too much entitlement. Too much privilege.

The best advice I've heard about arguments is to see who it really matters to, and that person should get more consideration. I get the impression that it matters more to your wife than to you, so why not compromise. When something really matters to you, your wife should give you more consideration.

I say you guys, but tend to use y'all when I text (cuz it's shorter. lol)

You can say "thanks for your opinion, next time I see you it'll be my turn to comment on your weight".

That is a big deal, I think partners should be more invested when it comes to healing from surgery.. And congrats on your recovery progress!!

In the OP's defense, looking at her profile, she's 5'11" and her goal weight is in the 150s, which is a completely normal weight goal. Trust me, I'm the same height and read all the tall girl threads and a majority feel that's a comfortable and good weight to be. Of course, each person is different and she already looks…

I think when you talk to him you should turn it around on him saying "though there are a tad hotter guys that you like to look at and [his biggest insecurity], that you love him and think he's goodlooking". See how bringing up the thing he's insecure about as a negative that you have overlook because you love him goes…

Perhaps try the C25K program to help you slowly build up your outside endurance level.

I think an experience she would like would be a special gift - a class related to an interest (sewing, stargazing, etc), horseback riding, a concert, etc

Not all employees are representative of their employer. I would check out the gym in person, you'll get a better read doing that than from some weird receptionist.

It sounds like she's afraid of you being more independent of her (and her influence), as you have these ideas that didn't come from her. I'd be more judicious with what you share with her (things she may not relate to), but to offset that maybe ask her opinion on things that she would add value to (with her life…

It depends... I've recently said it to a guy I'm interested in, he did something really thoughtful for me and it surprised me.

So..why didn't they invite you to Walmart to be with them if you were such great friends? Why didn't they run up to you and say hi if you were such great friends. Oh right, because they're frenemies.

Or you could do a version of this and cross out the numbers as you go...once you hit 25, you could have a shirt start with 25 http://onelittleminute.bigcartel.com/product/project-baby-tee

You could stitch three sides of a square of a clear vinyl (from a fabric store) onto a tshirt and then inserted and change out a printed number inside. Or you could stitch a square of the clear vinyl to the shirt and write a number on it. I'd experiment whether a dry erase would be easy to use and non-smeary,…

That's like when I went up to a MAC cosmetics girl at Nordstroms to ask if she'd help me find a lipstick in a flattering shade and she said that all of them are flattering and once I'd figuring out what shades I liked, she'd help me try them on. NEXT.... Not everyone should have been hired for their job

No, he's just being a hurt little boy and needed the ego stroke of striking out at you. People who've moved on are indifferent. He just highlighted, underlined and bolded a reason for you to be happy that you're no longer with a petty person. Be glad you're free to find someone better.

Mobil Oil/Exxon (XOM) - next to Apple it's one of the highest valued companies, and they pay dividends.

Sounds like a situational friend and part of the dynamic is her superiority of you being heavier than her. See how she adjusts, if she can't get over having to compete (in her mind) with you, cut her loose.

My brother keeps his snacks in a drawer in their home office, that way it's out of my SIL's line of sight. It's also to keep the human vacuum of a teenager from eating junk food as well.

If the PM is a high traffic time and those "toys" are what sets them apart from another gym (I don't remember seeing tires in my gym), not having access to the toys in the PM could be a turn off. And not everyone is vocal, they just vocalize it going to another gym.

I have McD's occasionally, but the high sodium kicks up the water retention for me :grumble:

I log it in on the 3 day I see the same (or less) weight

Miserable people can't stand it when people are happy...so be really happy and get your revenge on your miserable sister!
