I am the teacher sending all of you wonderful mamas & papas hugs-n-happy thots!! I'm you glad that YOU are raising the next generation, you and your amazing kids give me great hope!

LOL America is no longer a Christian nation - the U.S. shows more respect & commitment to Santa Claus than to Christ. President Barak Obama ended the tradition of hosting an Easter egg hunt at the whitehouse on favor of giving the funds to Muslim charities. I would have liked to keep the hunt but I love that our president…

1. If he'll cheat with you, he'll cheat on you. A general caution that has nothing to do with your situation. 2. "It's called a breakup because it's broken" should be mandatory reading for gals aged 14-400 3. If a dude is worth getting back together with he'll stay out of compromising situations 'til he can win you back.…

Question: So you are saying that you would discount the value of any weight loss program based on the author's faith system? Statement: God's not trying to sell you on the Daniel Plan. We were discussing an author who just happens to be a follower of Christ. Your statement doesn't distinguish between follower and the…

check out the blog ohsheglows, it's almost always the first up in a google search.she's got a recipe for peantubutter/banana oatmeal that is to DIE for. I usually hate bananas but they dont take over the flavor in this recipe. I lower the fat content by substituting peanut butter for PB2 powder - which has 1.5g fat per 2T…

Be BRAVE! you are doing what millions of people don't have the cajones for - getting healthy Women get stretch marks and a case of the saggybaggies all the time - we hate them - some of the things that have worked for me are cocoa butter 2x/day, staying hydrated, extra vitamin C and E (talk to a doc before starting vit E…

I empathize! my body was so unaccustomed to healthy amounts of calories & daily exercise that I put on another 10 lbs before I lost anything. If pounds are depressing measure your hips, rear, and tummy instead. I watched my measurements change even when I was gaining those 10 lbs. DON'T GIVE UP!! Give yourself some grace,…

My fertility doc said that a 10-15% weightloss is just as effective at increasing healthy ovulation and increasing fertility. I was on metformin for about 6 month but had to stop when it sent a pre-existing condition into overdrive. Oh, I hope you get a little one soon!!

I'd agree that ultimately weight loss is a numbers game, but the support system, accountability, and mind/body/soul approach are time tested. most 12 step programs use models that are similar. What I don't understand are the personal attacks based on Warren's appearance. Not classy, no matter what values system a person…

I'm so glad I spotted this! I started killin' pounds a year ago, and have lost nearly 50lbs, but I still have about 100 to go. I'd love to have some accountability and people to bounce ideas off. My username is brooklynnchick and I live in south-central Montana. We call it So-Cee-Mo! Can I join you?

wow! I've been there and never thought of the frescos & murals as wall tattoos. That settles it for me! God loves Himself a good tattoo! Thank you for the new thought!!! *hug*

Yay for Nanas with tats! I wonder where Betty White and Cloris Leachman have theirs...maybe i shouldn't think real hard on that ! LOL Remember the kid song, "red and yellow, black & white, they are precious in His sight! Jesus loves all us children of the world!" tattoos are a way to wear your soul on the outside! My…

I grew up in very conservative Christian fam - so tats were straight out. at age 17 i was holding a bottle of sleeping pills thinking about and firmly set on suicide. I'd been diag'd w/ med conditn that requires lifelong Chemo and a two month hospital stay. I was so angry, I was swearing and hollering at God! Out loud I…
