Nurse Practitioner, in Urgent Care, a Free Clinic, and in the summer I do mobile clinics for Migrant Health. So much variety, every day and every patient is different, and I love every minute of it. Might I recommend nursing? It's a great career. :)

You look wonderful, and so happy! I especially love that it looks like you did an "after photo shoot"--what a fun day that must have been! Great job and thanks for posting, so motivating!

If I drink a protein shake right before I work out, I want to puke while I am working out...which isn't nice.

Purge. It's the only solution.

Julienne Zucchini! I made this for the first time last night, finally found a use for that julienne peeler that's been in my drawer for eons and never used. I added a squirt of lemon juice, we had it with those lovely chicken sausages that are everywhere lately. Also, the site the recipe is on is a great blog.…

Oh that's motivating! I never thought of that. :) Mine is accurate for 8th grade...considering I"m 33, that's a bit off. BUT, it's very close to my goal! Or..at least I thought it was; I just checked and it's no longer printed on the card! Wonder when that happened? Anyway, it's 55 lb away, which feels very doable!

My experience is most guys are just happy to get you nekkid. :)

BUMP--yum!

Yep, that's what I meant too--I'm not friends with any crabby people. I meant the crabby bossy stuff I see on the boards--people who always have the right answer and know better than everyone else (in their minds). Sorry, haven't had much coffee, wasn't too clear.
-
Thanks for this. I am always a bit baffled by how bossy and crabby people can be here--the main reason why I keep my "friend" list to only people I know in real life (with the exception of 2 non-sucky people). I'm in charge of my body and my wt loss, and I don't need the input of strangers picking apart what I'm doing that…

I was on the pill forever, so didn't know if I had gained weight when I went on as I was like 17. I got the Mirena IUD a few yrs ago, and I did drop 10 lb in the month after I got it put in, so apparently I was carrying some weight from the Pill? I got the IUD because I was hoping for no periods--90% of women stop periods…

Oh my goodness, great job! AND a bump so I can show this to the boyfriend--so inspiring for both of us, you both look fantastic!

I tried really hard to get into this book, one of my colleagues was RAVING about the sex, which she admitted was pretty much the only redeeming quality of the book. I never read smut books but I was willing to give it a shot...even after several of the sex scenes I still couldn't get into it. The writing is just plain BAD.…

Definitely call your kid's Dr/PA/Nurse Practitioner. If your child's primary care provider isn't a jerk, you shouldn't even need to schedule a visit in order to ask, just call and ask one of the nurses, they will consult with the provider and call you back.

Butter, no nasty margarine. I like the spreadable butter. Colby jack cheese, or gouda and havarti are nice too. I haven't bought kraft singles...maybe ever. Too gluey for me. I love to fancy them up...grilled onions, roasted red peppers, pesto...not together, but those are things I like to add if I"m feeling saucy. Yum!

For me personally, I've never been to strippers, male or female. I don't "get" being excited about naked people. I've been taking care of people since I was 15 (nurse's aide, then nurse, now nurse practitioner), I see naked people all the time. Old wrinkly ones and young hot ones. Honestly, we're all naked under our…

I've had plenty of awful things said that pissed me off, but my then 4 yr old niece told me last year "I think Jesus wants us to love our family...even the chunky ones" and then patted my belly. I just told her I hoped I wouldn't be chunky forever, and she said "That's ok, I'll just call you Chunky Coby!" and gave me a big…

It makes some people feel really hungry...when I prescribe it I just warn people to watch what they're eating as they may be more munchy than normal. If you were on it long term then wt gain (and the moon face/big belly) are more of an issue.

Staunchly opposed, and I feel the same way about porn. It's the principle that matters to me--if he objectifies women in that way, how can I expect him to respect me? Or what if we had a daughter someday? Those women are someone's daughter/mother/sister/aunt. Somewhere someone loves them. I would be deeply saddened if it…

Fan-frickin-tastic.

where to start? First thing that comes to mind (maybe because I'm at work?) is that I have a duty to tell my patients to lose weight, watch their diet, etc, but at this weight I feel like a hypocrite. Never seemed to bother me as much when I was an RN, but something about being the provider/prescriber/diagnoser makes me…

My boyfriend and I met over 2 yrs ago on POF--he's by far the best guy I've ever dated. I never would have met him otherwise--we live about 45 mi apart, and he's much too cheap to ever be on a dating site that's not free. I had used online dating a few times in the past, and I have to say i thoroughly enjoyed it. I am very…

Me too!! :) Does slow down my charting though. If I have to be on the computer all day, I may as well be enjoying myself!

I agree that you have to just QUIT. Purge your house of all the junk, make up your mind to be stubborn with yourself about buying it or stopping through the drive thru--honestly, you will stop craving after you break the junk cycle, it just takes time. Sugar is addictive, just like alcohol or heroin. No one tells an…
