Request sent - but if you are selling, I'm not buying ;) haha

No one?? I feel like a leper lol

I typically eat 'real food'; but I do start my morning with a scoop of slimfast blended in my ninja smoothie maker with a cup of milk, and a half cup of frozen fruit. That has replaced my morning coffee on the drive to work, and since I have never been a 'breakfast person' it gives more to eat than the nothing I used to…

I find it hard to eat actual food in the morning, I need time to wake up... So my go-to answer lately is a scoop of slimfast, a cup of milk, and a half cup of frozen fruits blended in my smoothie blender. Bonus of that is when I get to work, I clean my smoothie cup and it becomes my water bottle for the day haha :) The…

So, will you just be posting each day how many squats we are to do?

Me too!!!

Actually there was a lot of mental and physical abuse in my home growing up, but I've come to terms with it and actually have a good relationship with my family these days. I was simply proving a point earlier regarding a comment that had been said.

That insult was actually aimed at me as I posted this: So I'm wondering if all those people who say children ruin your life have children? If not, how can you be an expert about something you have no personal experience with? Well, as I was told by my father several times growing up; I was an accident, and I ruined his…

selfless (ˈsɛlflɪs) — adj having little concern for one's own interests ********* selfish (ˈsɛlfɪʃ) — adj 1. chiefly concerned with one's own interest, advantage, etc, esp to the total exclusion of the interests of others 2. relating to or characterized by self-interest Just so we are clear LOL

That is why I pasted the definition.... I was agreeing with OP being selfish, but she doesn't think she is. It isn't always a bad thing..... It just is

:laugh:

I'm still not getting how that's selfless... that's me me me me me I"LL DO ANYTHING. That has nothing to do with doing something for someone else- it's completely about doing it because that is what you want. I am in no way judging you- or thinking you're doing the wrong thing- but I am pointing out- it is selfish.…

I don't want to convince her not to go through with it. It's her, and her husbands choice in the end. She asked for advice, I am sharing mine the same as everyone else here.

EXACTLY. Having an opinion does not make me right, nor does it make you. We each have our own thoughts an ideas to throw out her, OP can chose to read and talk to heart what she will.

Just saying; clearly people are going to procreate. If they can't save the money themselves, why not help someone else and then she gets her pregnancy experience while doing good for someone else and not having to pay out that much money. Believe it or not, I am trying here.......

Actually that was in response the this comment : "If fertile people want kids, they have a kid and don't think twice about it, no one is looking at them going "well why didn't you adopt instead of trying at all?" It would never even be a question, but the second someone has trouble conceiving and has to seek medical help,…

SOLID IDEA!

So, adopt a child to call your own, and offer to be a surrogate mother for someone else? You get to have the pregnancy experience, a child of your own, and you don't have to spend 21k to do it

No, actually I haven't. I've saved and bought my cars outright, in cash.

Not true at all. I question anyone who has a child; fertile or through medical assistance.... I also question who anyone would support and buy an animal like a dog or cat from a breeder. My thought is, if you want a child, or a pet... Don't have one created when there are so many out there already in need of a loving home.…

It is, and it isn't, all at once.... OP is trying to gather money she doesn't have for this IVF procedure; and it's been suggested they take out loans, put it on credit.... Awful idea

Why do you have to say the things I am thinking? At first it was nice to see I wasn't the only one with these views... Now it is getting to point of "Get outtttt of my head!!!!!!" haha

Too many people living outside their means these days. :(

bammmmm lol

**** happens. It just helped me learn good life lessons earlier than most. Truth be told, we have a great father/daughter relationship these days. My parents were of limited income, raising two children they didn't intend on having. With the state of current affairs in the world today, and my goals in life... I do not, nor…

Well, as I was told by my father several times growing up; I was an accident, and I ruined his life.... I just took his word for it. Kids are bad m'kay?

I had a chicken named 'whitey' (She was a white hen lol) when I was a child that I taught to do tricks... I've also had a crayfish named Dr Claw who lived almost four years.... I have a snake at home now, most people say that's weird and crazy... I just think they are the crazy ones :)

Amen to that! I too, work my *kitten* off for everything I have and have had in the past. As a kid, no such word as 'allowance' in our house... If I needed money for anything, I worked. I babysat, picked vegetables and raked blueberries at local farms. If that work was unavailable, I did chores like raking yards, piling…

I agree - Have you discussed adoption?? That would be my go-to If I wanted kids... which I certainly do not

yes, I don't get the butt-phone connection... Unless... You'd feel like a dumba$$ for smashing your phone is that situation? hahaha honestly I just like the comparison that photo makes with its words.. the photo is just random eye-candy?
