  • Thank you :) I have them in 2 different colors :)
  • Richard Castle.. he has a way with words.. Or lack thereof!
  • body pillow
  • rocking the long hair!
  • I have never watched A Christmas Story
  • I'm like that if I have to untie a knot in a string. I would rather just cut the danged thing!
  • I haven't done plank in 4 years. I used to be able to do 60 seconds. Today I could only manage 39 seconds. Trying to get feeling in my arms back to push ups. I'm pretty sure I will be lucky if I can do 1 lol.
  • I was married and divorced before I was 30. Before I started dating my boyfriend of 6 weeks I was single for 4 1/2 years and thought I would die alone. It will happen, you are a beautiful woman! Keep your head up!!
  • It's one of the languages offered at my school.
  • I'm still struggling with the no caffeine and no smoking stuff. It's hard to quit smoking when you live with a smoker who smokes inside!
  • Hey all! My name is Tiana. I am a single mom, of an almost 10 year old, who just turned 30. I have been trying to lose weight for such a long time but kept losing motivation. I think turning 30 has kicked everything into high gear. It might also help that I am dating a 26 year old who can eat 3x more than me and not gain a…
  • I'll play 1) I am learning ASL even though I hate when people stare at me, which happens when you are signing 2) I love dogs but hate poodles. Bad experience as a kid. I despise all poodles. (sorry if you own a poodle) 3) I can't whistle or roll my R's
  • I just turned 30 in mid March and started dating again 2 weeks before that. I went 4 1/2 years without dating. I find it difficult for me because I have a 9 1/2 year old son and am ready to settle down already. The guy I am currently dating is still 2 months away from being 27 and still wants to have fun and isn't ready to…
  • [/quote] Hope using this event as motivation helps you with quitting smoking! [/quote] Got some news I wasn't wanting yesterday so quitting smoking is not happening. But when things calm down again I have some patches ready to go!
  • oh cool. Good to know! I can do the walking part!
  • Thanks. I tried to C25K 2 years ago but as a smoker it wasn't working lol. I am willing to quit smoking for this and since I am signing up with friends it will be easier to stay committed.
  • I have been taking the Diamox since I was diagnosed and have not had to have another LP. I saw my Dr last back in March and he said the pressure was low enough in my head that I wouldn't have to go see him again unless I started having problems. I am also taking Concerta for ADHD and one of the symptoms of Concerta is head…
  • It's amazing that your brother has come this far! Good on him! I could see the internal battle with my son before he started getting help. He would never physically attack me when another male was around but there was one day at the store with my dad (about 9 months ago or so) and my son got mad about something and he…
  • Exactly! My son wasn't standing up for what he believed in, he was out for blood because the ODD makes it harder for his brain to switch gears. A normal kid- get ready for bed means its done within 5 minutes or so. ODD kid- get ready for bed means total melt down because its too much to process and some react violently, as…
  • I completely get where you are coming from. I feel the same way. I was medicated for bi-polar as a teenager when i didn't even have it. I was just a seriously pissed off teen. My son, however, has done a complete 180 in school since being on his medication. Without his ADHD medication he cannot sit still, keep quiet while…
  • I didn't know people were still commenting on this or I would have kept checking back since I am the OP. I did end up putting my son on the Concerta and Ritalin. In 2 months he lost 14lbs so we got rid of the Concerta and he only gets Ritalin. As soon as he started on the medication the ODD was suppressed. Now that he has…
  • No I mean ODD> Oppositional Defiance Disorder
  • I saw this, but I was asking about the cycling thing for my cousin. I have done it in the past. With me being in school full time I don't eat much but I'm not active. I was losing weight when I was using only stairs at school, not elevators. I plan to do stairs only again now that it is no longer colder than balls where I…
  • I found a link a year or so ago where I typed in my information and it gave me a calorie cycling plan, but I can't find anything like that now.
  • It is 100% true!!! When my son has his violent episodes his eyes are so dilated they are pure black. My son is not in there, my son is completely replaced by the rage that he can't control. I have seen the switch happen both ways. When he calms down there is so much sadness and remorse because he knows that something bad…
  • When the child has ODD (and there are different levels) there is nothing you can do to discipline the violent outbursts, they are not "present" when they do it. The feel extreme remorse after they calm down. They are mad at themselves for not being able to stop before it goes to far. If I try to discipline my son during a…
  • When my son gets violent I am scared for my safety. He may only be 8 but he is strong. I call him a mini Hulk. There doesn't look like there is that much strength there, but there really is. He hit his head on the wall (on purpose) one day out of anger and put a dent in the wall. He chipped the paint and there is concrete…
