Challenges (with modifications for my bum foot), check. Water, calories, check. This Sunday's weight: 267.2

The experts say yes, but the experts also find a different food that's going to save the world one day and kill you the next, so you have to be sensible. I have worked with eating them back and with not eating them back, and I've found the right balance for me to lose, and it is NOT eating back every single calorie. I eat…

*basks in delight at your words* ahhh... Like rain on your face after a long hot drought.... Like sunshine piercing through clouds after a storm... Like the smell of fresh cut grass... I'm going to start singing a country song any second now, I can feel it! Lol Despite my silliness, in all seriousness, it is so wonderful…

Check the pictures at Photobucket to make sure they aren't too big and that they haven't done something with them...? Best advice I know right now. Sorry they're not working, but you are still doing fabulous!

I attended a county wide teachers' meeting today, and the guest speaker opened his "performance" with this song. Such a lovely coincidence to get home and see that your post was inspired by the same words. You, friend, touch lives. :flowerforyou:

Great question. Though I'd say that being myself has never worked for me. Yes, I'm very aware of what that says about me. It sucks, but some of us have to be boring and uninteresting so the rest of you can seem witty and clever! Good luck! p.s. I love how the ladder theory is footnoted with "stupidness.com."

Well, enjoy yourself, cause you just never know! I'm going to join Team Nana! :wink:

I've only ever been on one blind date, and it was actually not too bad... until he got home and called me, crying, telling me now much he was still in love with my bff, who had set us up. Yep, she didn't want him, so she pawned him off on me. And he was sooo cute and tall! Cowboy, who played the guitar and sang, and had…

I love you again! I LOVE Chopped! I'm not that great of a cook, but that's so much fun! I'm so glad we're friends! :-)

This is lovely. Glad you saw what she was doing in her post, cause it clicked with me when you mentioned it, clever one. :-)

Fantastic job! I'm also taking pics as I go along, planning on posting at halfway mark and goal. You look awesome. Very very proud of ya!

I think I turned in all my info already, but just in case- I did all the challenges, but I've been over once on my calories during both week three and four. Water very day. Extra crunches, miles, jumping jacks- whatever the challenge, I've contributed my part. Current weight, as of this afternoon at Curves- 270. I will…

Tingles... anticipation on Christmas eve when children are involved. I LOVE their excitement and I love sneaking around to give them that awesome surprise. Sneaking around and leaving notes of encouragement for others anonymously (like on their car windows). Getting sincere compliments of any nature. That touch, when a man…

AWWW! SO sweet. Makes me want to get together with my mom and three sisters! =) Men with daughters are truly blessed. =)

I rotate mine out between my nieces, nephews, dogs, and, of course, ME! I've always been photogenic, so why not flaunt it?!

:flowerforyou: :heart: :flowerforyou:

I'm definitely changing. I am coming to believe in myself more. I've had to lose the weight mentally as well as physically, and though I have struggled with the physical this past month, I've struggled with the mental far more. But I'm learning to love myself more, and that's such a wonderful, remarkable thing. I'm not all…

Groan! That's it. I'm giving in to the inevitable and really learning how to knit.

So you're saying you want ME to knit you a sweater? All you had to do was ask! But you're supposed to make me one first or I won't know you're really committed!

Hey! Have you been spying on me?!

I wondered if you'd finally given up on that! :-) Good to know all my efforts haven't been in vain! Whew!

I'd love a wife who would cook, clean, do laundry, and wash my pick-up. :laugh: But since I'm a straight female, that makes things awkward, so I'm not holding my breath. :tongue: As far as a husband... 1. Christian 2. Tall (or confident enough to be with someone who is 5'9" and loves high heels)... It's all about him being…

Ah, I'm so glad I got to see this! I'm even more crazy about you knowing you can play and sing! Love love love to sing. :-)

Both dogs stay with me during most of the run, only pulling if my girl sees a cat or my boy sees a squirrel... yes, I admit they're not trained perfectly, but I'm finally getting them to sit and contain their excitement when I put their leashes on them, so one step at a time! That's training issues. Mostly I was wondering…

I think YOUR little one in your profile pic is pretty darn cute! :flowerforyou:

Yum, chopped liver! :laugh: Taso, I'm with Von- you're not happy with your cult following? I stalk your forums just to see what youre gonna say next, but no, having a MFP creeper isn't enough, you need sexy cowboys to adore you too. Tsk, tsk, tsk. :wink: Ed, I love you too, gorgeous! We should make babies! :laugh:

Brings up the whole concept of predestination, and whew, is that a touchy subject! I'm not planning on adding anything intellectual, just commenting so it makes me feel good about having said something on a Taso thread. :love:

You are such a joyous blessing, yourself, doll. :wink:

Im good on all exercises for the week; walked six extra miles, did 200 extra jumping jacks, did 200 extra sit-ups, drank my water, under every day on calories except Tuesday... think thats it. Oh, Ive also got the Tribal logo for you, but its not uploaded yet. I need to know if I'm on your Sept team or not so I can find…
