Only 14 posts away from 100. I'm almost there.

My DH does Laser Hair Removal as a profession so I'd like to chime in here. LAser and electrolisis do the same thing-kill the hair follicles thereby stoppping the growth of new hair. Laser is quicker in that it covers more area in a treatment. Electrolosis will remove red, blonde and grey hair which you need a special laser to do so not all laser techs can do all colors of hair. Electrolosis is much more tedious and time consuming and because of that it is also much more expensive than laser hair removal. Is that all clear as mud?? Feel free to ask if you have any more questions.

Here is the first picture that should of come up on my last post but did not. sorry
I OFFICIALLY SUCK AT DIETING!!! Can I say that word here? I need to go start a new thread: The Help I'm Eating and I Can't Stop Thread!!!! Honestly, I do not eat much as in large portions. It is the small bites of things I should not eat that are killing me! I know what to do, I'm just not doing it. And it is even harder to help my DD do it. I am having a hard time policing myself - much less trying to monitor her food intake! All the physical issues have not helped at all! I have been in such a weird funk for the last couple of months. I got down on the floor to try and do my exercises tonight and it made my hip worse, so I quit. Can't do the treadmill. I am beyond frustrated! Okay, my motivational speech is over. I know there are power in your words - so I will work on that tomorrow. Maybe I am just tired. Thanks for listening.
Wow!!! That is a huge difference!!! You look like 10 years younger!!!! You are beautiful. So how did you lose the weight (sorry if you already said this)!
I joined wieght watchers last May. I belong to a great group. It really helps. I also go to the gym alot. I hate it. I hate sweating, lifting wieghts, doing cardio. Basically I hate it all. Some of the guys are pretty cute, okay I hate almost everything about the gym. I even hired a personal trainer, I really hate those workouts. But I like the changes in my body and mind. I like how I feel and I am not going to trade everything I have worked so hard for a freach fry. Maybe a doughnut

Sounds like the oldest is pretty serious. I would definitely encourage her to do a summer intensive. Those will pretty much test her will to keep going with it. And most of the good ones will sort of give her an idea of her potentional to be serious about it long term too. And definitely have her try out for the nutcracker at least. Every ballerina has to be in it at least once!dance2874 I appreciate all the advice I can get. We dont have a dance line at our school. My oldest (15)gave up cheerleading this year because she wanted to take more dance classes. She is wanting to try out for the Nutcracker this fall with our local community dancers. They do a production using local dance students and featured dancers from the Alabama Ballet. The competition is a separate class. With separate fees as well-This summer she wants to do a 3 week intensive for ballet and there are several studios that offer dance camps in our area. My youngest (10) likes dance but 3 hrs a week is stretching her- we will probably cut back next year- she would rather be reading a book than anything else I think- currently she is teaching herself French- dont ask me where I got a smart kid- I feel like Forrest Gump sometimes

Dance? Someone mentioned kids and dance??? Here's my DD, she's in the middle I know I have a better picture somewhere... she took some time off to learn how to play saxaphone, I'm hoping to get her back in class - but only if she wants to!! She had so much fun dancing the hip hop, I reminded her about the Irish Step Dancing fun!!
