I'm not against it, but it was hard to stick to long-term. I could do it for a few weeks, but then I'd get off ONE DAY and then take a week to get back on again. I kept thinking, I'd reach a point where it was a lifestyle change... but honestly, I wish I would have used that time to set realistic calorie goals that were…

Same for me with Keto! I've never gained my weight back so quickly. I felt like I wanted to make it a "lifestyle change" and sincerely see nothing wrong with it... it just made me a little crazy when I would get off of it-- the moment I had more than 20 carbs.

There's just a reality where I don't want to have to fight my gym intimidation every time I go to the gym. It may be "me" or my own insecurities or just that one lone jerk giving me the stank eye, but it already takes some motivation to go to the gym. It's raining outside. I gotta put on pants. Drive down the road. Then I…

I've tried: Keto, Weight Watchers, Vegetarian, Whole 30, Calorie counting with no sugar allowed, Extreme calorie restriction, IF... Ultimately anything where I start off by restricting like crazy ends up in a binge roller coaster for me. The times where I really thrive is when I set realistic calorie goals and allow all…

Honestly.... people probably just don't know what else to talk with you about.... they probably could care less what you are eating in the moment. I just don't think people sit around caring what other people eat that much. The comments they make are normally just an attempt at conversation with you. Change the…

Okay.... Update: So Friday, it was just me, "Pete", and my chinese friend and her husband. (Only continuing to call her "chinese" friend for consistency-- he went to China and wanted to chat with someone from China) So... I didn't feel like the dinner was in anyway about me and him, really. He talked about his trip to…

Update #3 for those still hanging on lol: He invited my Chinese friend and her husband and me to dinner tomorrow night... and no one else. When he invited me, he made it sound like it was a group... then when I asked how many people would be there he just said it was a small group. When I talked to my friend she said she…

Read the follow-up comments. I was seeing someone else for 3 months of it. And to your previous comment... no I’m not wanting him to express a desire to be exclusive... I just wanted to know if he liked me.

I guess my only suggestion here is... guys... don't be players.

Okay awkward moment complaint: my hr managers boyfriend added me to fb "accidentally" last week and then told me not to tell her. So I deleted him but didn't tell her... now he came to visit her at work and is standing right in front (all of our offices are close) of me giving another one of my coworker dating…

That's what was happening... we were tripping the breaker. And I definitely disliked the man who said to turn them off. But the office building isn't very well designed. It's made of mainly windows and really cold concrete floors. But.. my heating pad totally works.

Complaint: I have had a neck crick for 2 weeks now. 2 trips to the chiropractor, one massage, daily stretching, adjusting my work chair and switching out my pillows.... I still have a neck crick. It's just so classy.

Last week, work banned space heaters in the office. So I'm rocking a heating pad underneath a blanket... it works like a charm.

Hmmm.. I've lived a lot of life this year and moved back to my hometown after being away for 3 years. "Yep. She moved back after traveling the world for the past 3 years. Still single but that's alright. Still eats all those exotic foods... and speaks that... Mexican? Spanish... shoot I don't know what it's called. She was…

But WHYYYYYYYY?! :#

Haha! I'm hoping that my awkward moments of rejecting his invitations are coming across this way... calm, cool, and intriguing and not weird like a deer caught in headlights-- which is actually how I am.

Update #2: He messaged this morning and invited me to his place on Saturday night for a "small, casual dinner with friends." I'm still going with the friend theory because: a) he really does seem to be a guy who gets along with women... some of his interests are a litttttle bit more on the feminine side b) It really could…

Okay so.. update. No call tonight. I did talk to one of our mutual friends and got her opinion— she knows us both pretty well and really believes it’s just a “friend” thing. He’s a guy who has a lot of close girl friends and she thinks that he really just likes me as a friend. So I’m running with that! And that frees me up…

Honestly this is what I’m most likely to do. Because in all reality, he has really good best friend possibilities. I loved hanging out with him before I was even interested. And really, that’s part of why I wish I knew what he was thinking, because even if it’s “I wanna make this chick my bestie”, I could roll with that. I…

I already do talk to him like I just did.

Oh I already do lol! He knows I'm crazy and overthink things.

That's 5 months from the time we've met. I was seeing someone else for 3 of it... and then it took me a month to get over that... so like 2 months since he started reaching out more and maybe 5 weeks of him increasing communication... and 2 weeks of that, he was in China. So... basically its been like 3 weeks... lol.

Haha! I actually really did accidentally text him randomly--- and it was truly an accident. So I can't pull that again or it will be suspicious!

But what if I say "DATE" and he says "PASS"?

HAHAHA okay! Thank you for that distinction! I can totally flirt! I thought we were asking for me to DTR... and I just don't think we are there yet!

But... okay... real talk: Anytime I have ever asked for a "define the relationship" talk with a guy-- even when I was legit dating them, it seemed to just stifle the relationship. It's like guys suddenly just choke under the pressure of having to define it and having to live up to the definition. And I have NEVER in my…

That's fair... I do feel like I'm testing the waters... and I would be interested if I knew he was interested.

Mer. Its only been 5 months... crossing the hurdle from "just friends" to more can be a bit more complicated than if we just met on a dating website and immediately knew why we were both there. I think it's too soon to tell if this would lead us to some deep communication issues. So far he's pretty easy to talk to.

These responses are cracking me up! He said he'd call tonight to make plans for the weekend... sooooo we shall see...

I'm not about that first move life! At best, I can flip my hair, compliment his muscles and laugh at his jokes. But.. hey.. then again maybe that's what he is doing.... :D
