1. Did you split amicably - Not really. I didn't want to but I did, and he didn't want to at all. 2. Did you kill each other during the process - No. He just can't ever speak with me directly about anything, not even in email. It all goes through a third party so he doesn't have to deal with me. 3. Was the divorce due to…

Out of six children I'm the only one left with a key... and I'm the only one that lives out of state. And it's not that my parents asked for it back. Everyone just sort of got to the stage where they didn't want a key anymore. Sadly, it doesn't work so well when they get locked out!

Near 30 pounds and few really have noticed.

Well, you're already trying to take action and do something, which is important. That's the first step. Having support will be great, but not just because someone will tell you what to eat or not to eat. Having someone to speak with is important. No matter how much/little there is the lose, you're still a person and…

That's wonderful news! My birthday is next week and I'm dreading what it will end up doing to the scales. I'm proud of you! Keep it up.

I would like to go see my family and not have them point out to me just how overweight that they think that I am. Brutal, unkind honesty? That's my fam.

I've always been more console than I have PC, actually, but then again I never really have a PC that will do anything that I want it to. And I'm more tabletop than I am console. Yup, pencils and dice geek, that's me.

It's resolved now but this is why I would never drink Monster. :( http://thehumansaredead.wordpress.com/2009/10/14/monster-energy-drink-sues-vermonster-beer-company/

Bedazzle. Rhinestones are all the rage.

Might want to be careful in your approach. If she starts to turn green... RUN! I agree with a previous poster. Explain to her how women are supposed to be delicate flowers. Tell her you want her to be your porcelain doll forever and it can't happen if she's a hulk. :)

I split the butt out of my jeans. So I went up a size. Split the butt right out of those some months later, too. I was in denial and didn't want to go up ANOTHER size, so I bought one of the same. Then refused to wear the jeans again, opting for my dress pants which were bought to be big so they actually fit. I really…

My beau knows almost exactly where I am at, and not only because he's on MFP as well. I've always found it important to be open with these things. Not because weight matters, but because it was something I was serious about and serious about changing. And by being open with things he knew where I was, how far I've come and…

Pretty good mood/day/etc... but as for one minor thing that is ticking me off? I'm wearing my glasses because the lights/weather just are killing (they're for reading). Stupid freaking coating on them is getting dirty like crazy and I just can't keep them clean! It almost makes me want to not wear them at all.

I'm pretty tolerant of some names but then I wonder about others. Names that are purposely cruel to your child but they sound cute and funny? I think those names are best off saved for pets. I understand it's just a personal preference and that everyone is different. One day while traveling I stopped at a roadside stop. I…

No matter what, you're going to feel it. It might not feel *bad*, but you'll feel it. The spot you're getting it should be cake if you're great with pain. Me? I'm allergic to any pain killer stronger than like Advil so I've built up a pretty good pain tolerance. I've been okay with tattoos everywhere, even on top of the…

I'm 5'10, 161 lbs and in a size 8. My goal is to be 155 or so. I really don't need to be too thin/trim, honestly. I just really wanted to not have to keep buying new clothes, and all of mine were like sizes 6/8. Which I realized when I was trying to shove my almost size 14 in a size 10.

I hadn't had one at all in four years (due to the type of bc I'm on) and when I got into actually working out every day (and not just wakling/cardio) I actually had one. O_o The body likes to play tricks on us. I wouldn't be overly alarmed but taking regular tests to make sure you're not preggers isn't a bad idea either.

Two weeks tops. Lost the first 17-18 in under three months. Then, as I only had a small amount left, I got stuck. Adjusted my calorie intake (made it higher but with whole foods and not as many sweets) and picked up 30DS and an aerobics step. I've not even lost a full ten pounds since (July until now), but I only have like…

I had that when I worked for an OB/Gyn and honestly I'm glad that the policy is in place. The last thing I needed to do was to get patients sick. That being said, since then I will forever have a doctor's note on file for why I can't get the flu vaccination. So I can't actually be forced into anything. But still, to think…

A friend request. :) Sometimes, rarely, I'll send one on my own. I'm not exactly 'swimming' in friends. I comment on their updates as often as I can but sometimes it isn't so often. I was on this site for about a year before I actually took it seriously, and then up until recently (August) I didn't even pay attention to…

Agreed! With both! :D

Hahaha. :D I always laugh when people mention this. <3

Some of mine are already in my profile pictures.

I had a coworker that was the subject of a post to a thread yesterday about horrible roommates. We worked in a medical call center, screening patients and the like. She'd hit on the patients, and later I'd find that she'd brought several of them into our home! All she did was talk about her sex life at work (which is why…

Been there. No one would tell her to go home. Then I went through two months of the same stuff. I have no immune system so I do not appreciate the exposure!

I think my favorite part is that in the after picture? You seem to be really happy. You're not just smiling like the one above, you look really happy. Great job! You look amazing!

By far and large the worst roommate that I had was something that I had ended up working with. She was a mother of two but had custody of her minor brother due to his father not wanting him and their mother committing suicide. Her brother had some issues that the state didn't believe at first... until she pummeled the…

I think he was just trying to encourage the first step before the second step, for several very good reasons. The laws regarding self-defense being a major portion in it. If any action is taken against the guy and she's not been upfront and honest with him it could come back against her. Almost like sexual harassment cases…

This. ^^ Excellent advice!
