  • Bradenton/Lakewood Ranch area. I have lived here for fifteen years, but I still miss the Autumn colors of the North.
  • I was five years old and I saw Michael Jackson on television and I couldn't figure out his gender. I asked my mom and she told that he was a he and that he was gay. :huh: Not sure why she did that and I was really confused when I saw him with Lisa Marie Presley. When I was four I believed the devil lived in the ground and…
  • Even if the obesity rate goes down to lower levels there will still be bigger people, so I don't think those stores will be going anywhere. Plus, Lane Bryant is also great for ladies whose chest measurements fall outside the norm when it comes to bras, tops, and jackets.
  • I love Bostons! We have two girls: Tessa and Daisy. We got them from reasonable breeders. Make sure to see the parents, especially Mom, before you take your new puppy home. I see that you live in Ohio, so you will probably need to invest in some doggie jackets for when it gets cold out. I live in Florida and when it dips…
  • My dad has the same problem with his workout clothing; mainly the clothing that wicks away moisture and dries quickly. Washing in cold water with Tide Sport and adding a dryer sheet seems to help.
  • I love NCIS! I love the whole team- Abby, Gibbs, Tony, McGee, Ducky, and Ziva. Just a great mix of personalities. I'm watching the season premiere right now!
  • The Keratin Hair Treatment doesn't straighten your hair. It helps control frizz and makes hair shiny and stronger. It made my curls behave themselves and not frizz. You have to be careful who you get if from, because you don't want the Keratin treament that contains formaldehyde.
  • Of your choices I like Winston. However, I think he looks like a Charlie.
  • I apparently had a twin at my undergrad college since people would confuse me for her, but I never met her. I also had a name twin at the my orthodontist office. I once got her chart and it really confused the orthodontist and the assistant until they figured out that there where two Jenny X. My dad looks a little bit like…
  • ^^^^^This If you have it going on and want to wear a mini skirt or whatever then go for it! However, it should be a mini skirt from the women's section not the teens! It is also about balance- you pick a body area you want to show off: back, legs, or chest/arms. I love watching What Not to Where, because they give the best…
  • I don't mind the occasional spelling error. I have a horrible time spelling, which is why I switched to Firefox which has a built-in spell checker. What bothers me more is lack of punctuation and the wrong use of capital letters. When a person does not use punctuation and correct capitalization their posts are much harder…
  • I haven't used it, but considering getting it. I looked at a lot of online reviews and found that when it worked for people they had problems with how costly it is. People with thick, curly hair (like mine) also had to use a lot of product, so they ran out even faster and had to spend more money than those with thinner…

  • I have two Boston Terriers, but they are not marathon runners and Florida summers can make even they slowest walk challenging. They have a bad tendency to over heat if I'm not careful. I have started taken the younger one, Daisy, for a brisk morning walk since she is a little on the chubby side. That way we both get extra…
  • Panera Poppy Seed Dressing- it is a little on the sweet said, but low-fat. You can find it at the grocery store.
  • Not sure how sizing works in Austrialia, but here in the US odd sizes are in the juniors (teenagers) department. If your clothes are too big, but your still losing I would a few things you can wear. I would look for things that can be belted when you lose more weight like a wrap dress. Wrap dresses are amazing. I have one…
  • He has the bluest eyes I have ever seen. I loved seeing him in Cowboys and Aliens! Even when he is covered in dust and dirt!
  • Having swollen optic nerves. In the past three months, I have had a mri, a lumbar puncture (spinal tap), and blood work done to make sure my swollen optic nerves and headaches were not a sign of something more serious like a brain tumor or other conditions that make for many a sleepless night. It all came down to that I…
  • I like 4 and 5.
  • "Fat" is a loaded worded. I wasn't overweight in middle school, just more "grown" than most girls. I was called "fat" by the other girls and it was hurtful and mean. It also caused me to become depressed and emotionally eat which then caused me to gain weight.... So, no I don't like being called fat.
  • My family went out to dinner for my dad's birthday. The waiter asked my mother if I was under 13. I was 24. People generally think I am younger than I am, but that waiter was way off.
  • Putting tape on the windows. I live on the east coast of Florida and I have prepared for more hurricanes than I can remember. Luckily, we have never have had any property damage. One small tip- skip buying the water bottles and buy reusable five gallon jugs that you can fill from your tap and then empty out if not needed.…
  • i have seen a number of articles and news stories about the correlation between sleep and weight. The main point of most of them is that if you are not getting enough sleep your body will compensate by wanting to eat more. You can change your internal clock. Every night go to bed thirty minutes earlier until you reach your…
  • Like the other posts I think a light dinner is best, but I would drink some hot tea to help with digestion since you have such an early weigh in. I drink black or peppermint tea with honey.
  • I used to drink at least a can a day. I would always grab one every time I left the house, so I would have somthing cold to drink in the car. Now, I only have it when I go to movies. I have a reusable platic cup with a lid and straw that I fill up with ice water all the time. Drinking more water has really helped with…
  • Sharon Shinn's Samaria series is great for science fiction/fantasy/romantic fans. For pun lovers nothing can beat anything by Spider Robinson. I have never finished reading a Spider Robinson book and not felt such a wide range of emotions. His Stardancer Trilogy and Callahan Series are simply amazing. Lois McMaster Bujold-…
  • Keep exercising and eating well, but don't let yourself be dragged down because you don't look "cute" in short shorts. I'm a pear shape as well and I have learned to embrace fashions that show off my curves and ignore those that don't. You might want to try some different exercise like yoga. It will help make you stronger…
  • What helped me get a grip on emotional eating is going to over-eaters anonymous meetings. They are free and they use the same materials as Alcohols Anonymous.
  • I had the same problem when it came to eggs and cheese. I switched to adding a tablespoon salsa on top of my eggs instead of cheese. My favorite is Newman's Peach Salsa. It adds flavor and moisture. I also stopped adding salt to my eggs.
  • The biggest benefit of drinking water is that it makes you feel fuller which in turn helps you eat less. It also helps you process food better! As to yoga, there are many different kinds and some are better for weight loss than others. I do asana yoga once or twice a week. It has made me much stronger and I find doing…
  • I eat Oikos Vanilla Greek Yogurt with granola. You have to stir the yogurt really well or else its gross.
