Is anyone watching Cooper Anderson right now?
I tuned in a little late. But he is interviewing Danny Devito. And it appears that Devito is more engaged with his phone than the interview. Is there a reason he has his phone on stage? I find this to be bizarre and incredibly rude.

Earlier today, I did an extremely intense circuit. When I went to take a shower I noticed that I had busted a blood vessel in BOTH my breasts.

Terrified to Weigh in.
Inititally when I got back into the "MFP game", I decided to weigh myself three weeks into using it. Tomorrow will be 21 days.. UGH, but I don't want to. I know I should be back into the 130s- anticipating 138ish, however I think I might be crushed if I am not. I feel skinnier, but I know the number can motivate me to work…

Crying
So, this guy I have been semi dating (or something like that) just called me. He screams my name and then I hear in the background his roommate scream "Hey, is that the fat girl you're talking to".
