DISappearing Peeps...A fastpass to THIN! Part 3

[punkin413]

Also - my daughters dance studio is offering an adult class in tap, jazz, ballet and strength and conditioning. Do you think a 40+ in age and weight would look silly in that tap and strength class?- Not ready for the leotard and tights yet

i would so go for it! i wish they offered classes like this within a reasonable driving distance to me! but i live in the boonies so fitness classes are pretty much it for anyone over 13! i took dance (ballet, point, jazz, tap & gymnastics) from the time i was 4 til i was 15, then boys became more important to me. SOOOOOOOOO stupid! i wish i would've stayed with it. GO FOR IT!!!!! it'll be fun. and the tap and jazz will be great cardio, while the ballet and strength classes will build muscle and flexibility!

again, sorry about that. i will no longer refer to any tv shows on here b/c i'm on the east coast and i see everything before a lot of you. please accept my apologies.

I wasnt upset with you at all....nothing could take away my joy of Sajnaya being gone. I have to say, my heart was aching for him a little when he was crying though. I feel bad that he was the butt of Americas joke for the last few weeks and he truly did want to have a career in music. It was funny how he was changing the lyrics of the song he sang too.

WHO cares if I was a 300 pound woman in a bathing suit in the pool or sunning myself. I would NEVER be seeing any of these vacationing strangers again. Now, it's like I'm a whole new person. I DO admit to wearing a stylish sarong around my danger-zone (thighs) but I think I look FIERCE for a mom of 4.

you go!!!!!!!! you look fierce regardless of how many kids you have! and let me just say (no offense to anyone) that at least you have the sense to wear sarong and not a thong!!!!! i've seen MANY women (and men, for that matter) wearing things on the beach that were very inappropriate for their size and i just thought, "do you OWN a mirror?????"

So true! Just because they sell it in your size, does not mean you need to buy and wear it.

i didn't hear it b/c DH muted the TV during his last performance! poor kid.

I'm not saying what they did was "wrong" persay but they have been rude and CHEAP about this wedding since day one. It's hard to tell the whole tale on here without seeming like I'm making a big deal out of nothing.

I seriously tried my best not to comment on your own personal situation as I really know little to nothing about it. I was only trying to point out another perspective when it comes to giving wedding gifts.

From your beautiful pictures, I can see that your wedding was very special and this is not a part you need to focus on or remember. I applaud your ability to put this kind of ...stuff... behind you. I apologize for any inference that might have been made by my post.

Wow this is an active thread!!

dance, I am also a size 10... well, one foot is a 9.5 and one is 10. I HATE shoe-shopping. I had some gift certificate thing and found a great pair of heels at DSW, though... black and have a criss-crossy thing. Can't wait, though, until I get back to a *clothes* size 10!!

I was terrible tonight, had pizza, wings, beer. Tomorrow I am definitely going to go extra hard at the rink, and maybe I can sneak in a gym visit sometime over the weekend, or go rollerblading or something.

I wish I had someone to exercise with on the weekends. My DH works most of the time, and I have the weekdays sewn up w/ coworkers, but weekends are tough. Lonely and food looks REALLY good.

UM, you definitely look fierce. I watched some of your goodbye video and you are gorgeous!

The things I think shouldn't be bought/sold in certain sizes... spandex (except as an undergarment), super-low-rise jeans, thong b-suits...

I don't watch TV unless it is late night or hockey, other than Battlestar Galactica. Anyhow, I love spoilers, so even if I did I wouldn't be offended.

I love love love the situp idea. Tonight DH's friend is here so I would feel funny, but I am going to start doing that more often.

I want to thank all of you for the kind words. I just want to take a moment to tell Dan that we are sorry for his loss as well. This cat was our cat. He was a gift from my husband to myself before we had children of our own.

He is hurting as well, for the loss of our beloved cat. I dont even know if he reads these boards anymore. I woulld imagine he stops by.

So, just remember Dan and the girls in your prayers for our family.

The sun will shine again for all of us, I am sure.

Even though Buddy was a very skittish, we both have fond memories of him and always will.

Just another chapter to close in our lives.

Bee

On another note- I went shopping for torture device #2 for my sisters wedding, HEELS. (#1 was a strapless bra) I HATE trying to find shoes that dont kill my feel and are pretty. I am a size 10ish and it stinks. All the cute ones dont come in my size Any recommendations on some comfortable black heels?

Nordstrom! I have size 11 feet and Nordies is the ONLY place I can buy heels. Their shoes are so FIERCE! Not TOO horribly expensive if you time a sale. Your feet must be comfy for a wedding!

 

[aldisneygrl]

well, the jury now has our trial. they got the case today around 2:15 and we stayed there until like 5:45. then they asked to go home and sleep on it. so we are back tomorrow morning to wait some more on their deliberations. they've technically only deliberated like 2-and-a-half hours because they asked to watch the video of the shooting again and that took about an hour. so it's not bad so far. hopefully we'll get a verdict before the end of the day tomorrow!

allie - let me know how your trial turns out!

Ours is done, and not what I had hoped for. I'll pm you later. Just upset about it.

Hope yours has a good ending.

I do feel bad for him as well but he didn't do well enough to get this far. But that's what happens when you leave voting up to the public. And I don't vote so I really can't complain!

I know you didn't mean any harm! They just made the wedding process so hurtful and trying that I am still sensitive about it. They really ruined it for us. Luckily they didn't ruin the wedding and that's what counts!

He was singing something to talk about by Bonnie Raitt he changed the words to say "Let's give 'em something to talk about other than hair..."

Good! Hopefully, they will decide tomorrow and you will be done with it!!

I wear 9.5 or 10. I have found comfy heals at DSW and Kohl's. For other weddings I have been in I have brought a pair of ballet slippers or flip flops for the reception. It was so nice to change into those! I did it for my own wedding too!

 

[punkin413]

Good! Hopefully, they will decide tomorrow and you will be done with it!!

unless there's a conviction and then i have to type it!!!!!!!!!!!! typing a two-week trial is NOT going to be fun. it will definitely have to wait until i get back from vacation! it'll be good money, though. but honestly i hope there's not a conviction - i don't think these guys did what they're accused of. i'm sure there will be an article i can post after the verdict is out, so i'll pass that along to those of you who are interested.

I know you have the same problem with your feet htat I have...look for a heel that is about 1-11/2 inches and if you can find some that have the heel at the back edge of the shoe with a strap around the front...Maripe is the Brand shoe that I have, I wear a 10 and I found these at Rackroom shoes. if you stick to a lower heel you should be ok for a few hours. These are still sassy shoes without the neck breaker status!

 

[harleygirl]

Dene- LOVE your new bling! if you start doing Pilates will you still need Jay?

Might we have pictures coming this weekend???

Harley!!!! I KNOW you will do it! I found a small loophole in Hoodia....I take 3 now, not 2. It really does help my appetite at night. I WANT to do this at night without it. Don't compare your progress with your DH.
Well, good luck tomorrow morning!

Too funny!! They are a strange match.


I didn't even think about the fact that you have to type it all up (DUH!). I would be interested in the link about the trial. Your trip is so close! Are you packing yet? I am a dork and I start a suitcase about two weeks before and I start throwing things in it as I think of them.
