DISappearing Peeps...A fastpass to THIN!

[eeyore45]

Wow Winkers - what a beautiful picture!! Sorry you lost that post - this laptop gets no power to the battery - it was a throwaway laptop (DH is a computer geek *software engineer* )

Summer for you!! I have yet to exercise - plenty of time right?
*sigh... I"ll get there with all your help - just keep posting, it helps!!

The only way I got my tags is to chase the darn TF all around the Community board, whenever I see a tag fairy post (thank you, or has anyone seen the TF lately) I go in and try and post, when the TF was busy during the Chachi picture, it was happening, so I hung out there - and posted to the TF - I am not clever... lucky maybe!! I got my first tag about the pixie dust quite by accident, on the community board there were lots of TF thank you posts, and I didnt understand about "pixie dust" so I thought, well my first time to WDW in 15 years, things change, so I posted about whether I should bring "pixie dust" ie glitter...

My 2nd tag came again as I was following the TF threads, and I didnt get any of my "clever" (ok not so clever) witticisms, instead TF wanted to know how much I paid for my pixie dust... (that one disappeared btw - another thing to remember, what the TF gives, the TF can give away - one poster actually started a thread about giving away her tags, and was upset when the TF did just that!!! )

So, there is lots of disparging posts about being tagless, just hang out on those threads, and commiserate in a nice friendly, suck up to the tag fairy way, and you never know...

Now with UTM I dont know, she's gifted with wit!!

Linyda - My prayers and hopes are with you! I was told many moons ago I could not conceive, it ws very hard to hear and decided to go full force at my careeer and gorw old with my cats!

God, on the other hand had a wonderfully different plan...MY DH!! I was scheduled to have knee surgery and had to get blood work prior to admissions to have the Dr call and say go back they must have made an error they have you as preganant and he was as shocked as I was to learn sruegery would be cancelled I was preganant! The dr had tehm run 4 tests, he was shocked! This was a long standing and a diagnosis given by more than 4 specialists in NY!

To my joy I gave birth to that wonderful DS10 who has filled my life with joy beyonds my wildest dreams! Dh and I had resided to the idea that adoption would be our option but God had another plan! My Ds is a constant daily remeinder of Gods great miracles!

I on the other hand became greddy and lost all 6 pregnancies after my DS I ate away my pain so no one could see the pain inside and put on a happy face! My pain caught up with me when I faced the fact I was not cherishing the miracles every day of my son but being a bit distant to everyone just enough to keep me thinking at night when everyone was snugggled in for the night. I would think of what I DID NOT HAVE rahter than what I did have. The gift of my husband the gift of my son and how I yearned and longed for what I did not have.

I am finally on the otherside of this and am in full swing menapuase Yiippee and faced my truth that I got greedy!!!! So this year I have promised myself to recommit to giving my family back the woman that my husband fell in love with and my son's mother back.

I pray you will know God's will for you and and it will be what you want too! I now have kids, I drive for school the handicapped and volunteer and if all goes well I am being interviewed for an asssitant job with the challenged students in school...will see what God thinks of that idea.

I have meet along my journey with this many ladies who have conceived when all drs stand scratching their heads but we know who is really in charge of that!!!

The strangest of all is to learn that most of our struggles are for us to teach and show someone else God's mercy! I can say that today I coudl not say that 3 years ago I last miscarried on my birthday begging and praying for God's mercy and thought he did not hear me. Today, I know he heard me and gave me all his love and lets me heal too!

I know it takes a great love of God and huamnity and a speacial perosn who craves to give their love to a child. God Bless you ! Ok I promised myself not to cry or get all emotional writing this..............NOT!!! Sorry...


OK UM I utterly refuse to pose in a bikini do you how many young men boys and children could be scared for life if I did!!! Well on the upside we could use that a suggested form of birth control!!!!

ok I will turning 43 on June 24th and would love to wear a bathying suit in public by then!!!

Have a great day all!!!

Duh I forgot to tell you the most important part....DH was not keen on the adoption idea nad told me later he was just happy to be toethger just the tow of us and said it just to keep the peace!!

Oh and EEYORE... I would love to participate for that 5k if you could squeeze my bum in their!!! Hopefully it will be much smaller by then!

Thank you for sharing.. I bet it was a blessing and a miracle.. we tried for 2 and 1/2 yrs for the 1st one.. then the second was a suprise...

So, glad you are now at peace in your life.. GOD is GOOD!!

Winkers~

I saw the picture! You are the most beautiful person in that picture. Your mom and your sister are very attractive, but you are as pretty (and IMHO prettier!) and you've got that something special sparkle in your eye. Love your hair color! Ugly duckling I think not!!!!!!

 

[Bee]

GRRRRRR! I just spent 1/2 hour typing a long "true confession" and finally figuring out how to put up a picture.......thanks Melinda! And then my computer had a glitch, and I lost everything.

Bee, thanks for sharing about your great grandma! I've had some amazing women in my life too. Grandma's rock!

Lynda, I can't imagine how frustrated you must feel. Wether or not to have kids never was a problem for me since even tho I was on bc I got pregnant 3 months after we were married. So I became a mom at the ripe ol age of 19! Hang in there!

Thanks to wheathins I was thinking about why I realy want to loose weight and that could take hours to explain in full. Mostly I just want to feel good about myself on the outside, and there is alot of diabetes in my family. I've seen all of the side effects and I've sworn I'm going to beet it! My other issue is with how I feel with my family. I was always the ugly duckling growing up, and a few years ago my dad even admited that yes I was. OUCH! That one hurt. Anyways my sisters and mom are all beautifull skiny minnies who could eat whatever they wanted. Then there was me with an extra 10lbs no matter what I did. I was a whopping size 10 when I graduated and thought I was gigantic. Oh to be that huge now!! So I'm tired of going home and feeling like daughterzilla when I hug my mom, and feeling horrible when I see family pictures. Anyhoo, here's a pictue of my lil sis, mom and I last April, when I was there for a visit..............................

YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!!!! I THINK THEY NEED TO SEE AN EYECARE PROFESSIONAL!!! Love ya, mean it!!

Hey peeps!

Elliptical machine is assembled and I just did 20 minutes on it! Haven't done an elliptical in about 6 or 7 months and boy did it kick my... ahhhhh... bootie!

Figure I'll try for 20 minutes every morning and 20 minutes every evening for a while and then work my way up! I don't look like the ladies on the TV commercials yet!!! But I'm on the way

 

[harleygirl]

Winkers - Girl you are so pretty!!! and remember what Mom always said - pretty is as pretty does!! no way are you ugly duckling!! you are very striking lady with that gorgeous hair!!!

thanks to all the posts shared here today! wont take time to acknowledge as I have come down with episudy and am on my way to boil it out in a HOT bath...BUT I will say that posting the ways we struggle with our emotions and learning the whys of our binging are goin a long ways to turn that rain of bad habits around... baby steps, this is about being healthy, inside and out! part of that means taking a harsh look at why we do what we do!!!

GREAT JOB PEEPS!!! keep up the positive posts!! and dont forget to find something to laugh at everyday!!! laughing burns calories..did you know???

 

[harleygirl]

Okay I read on msn (i thnk) yesterday about the makers of several Diet products just lost a suit for making false advertising... one was Xenadrine, One a Day Weight Loss and something else...false advertising because they dont "Melt away the pounds/fat" study showed that groups given these magic pills and those given placebo...guess who lost weight? righto - placebo group...whas that tell us??

We are doing the right thing!!! We are gonna make a change in ourselves and then when we get to our goal we can say "HEY check out how smokin hot I am, cause I am strong and I did this all by myself!!!"

Way to go Peeps!!

Hi, everyone! I've been lurking around the boards for several months now and this one specifically - since I first saw it in UM's signature. I'm beginning to feel like an eavesdropper, but I don't want to leave so I figure I have to introduce myself. My name is Nancy, but my nieces and nephew - and some almost nieces and nephews call me AnnNan - short for Aunt Nancy - which I love. Hence my user name.

I'm quite a bit overweight and have been working on it since last February but have only lost about twelve pounds. I've lost enough inches to be satisfied with that. So I may report maintenance a lot of weeks! But that is better than gaining. I was thankful like so many of you to get through Thanksgiving and Christmas without gaining weight.

I won't say I hope it's okay for me to join because having listened in I know I will be welcome! Thanks for letting me join and good wishes to all for our success!

HEAR HERE!! WELCOME, welcome AnnNan - thank you for joining, thank you for sharing!! Hope you get comfy enough to post often, but not so comfy you remain seating, we have to do all those exercises while reading ya know!! (wish the bouncy bouncy 's were on page one - )

Harleygirl, you GO!! Dont let anything stand in your way!! I saw all those news reports on the Xenedrine, and Trimspa - I figured out a long time ago the gimmick was/is chromium picolinate - so stick with that, but even that Mr. 8weeks to Optimum Health aka Dr. Weil debunked that myth...

Everyone post those results of the "fires" I have 4 fresh sweet potaotes I aint touchin!! some Salmon too, dh is just waiting for me!!

I will say that the lemon juice in hot/warm water first thing in the morning is a keeper - after debunking the trimspa pills they did introduced what did work, fruits, veggies, portion control, and lemon juice is a great way to rid yourself of all that water that hangs on to you...trust me!!

 

[dismom9761]

AnnNan!!I know you will like it here and get the support that you need.

Winkers,You are beautiful!!and don't let anyone tell you any different.

Pixiedust,congrats on your elliptical. I miss having a piece of equipment at home that is so convenient.

Lynda,I don't really have any advice but I am keeping you in my prayers.

summer,Way to go on your exercise today..you rock!!

I know I have left people out but it is soo hard ro keep up here..just know that I love ya all!!

 

[harleygirl]

Did you post your bikini pics yet? Just kidding!

OMGosh if I did that I'd have to pay for everyones corrective eye surgery

 

[dismom9761]

I did okay today I guess but I didn't exactly "Kick it up a notch" like I wanted.I got up this morning and Rachel (DD2) was wheezing and barking so I had to take her to the Dr.She is feeling fine but sounds not so good when she coughs.She has Reactive Airway Disease and now is on steroids (AGAIN)for spasmodic croup.He also got to see her in action and asked some questions and said that she has some "issues" that may need some professional help if she doesn't start to grow out of it. We already knew that so no big shock there.
My daddy(and no matter how old I get he will always be my "daddy") took me out to lunch for my birthday and I ordered exactly what I wanted but only ate half.I went to the gym and did the different weigts for an hour and then did about thirty minutes on the elliptical and treadmill.
I am not feeling so great tonight-kind of depressed and there is alot of tension between DH and myself.We seem to be walking on eggshells with each other and snapping alot.
We all need to send some Harley's way she was over tonight(GO COLTS) and she feels horrible.
Bye for now...

WELCOME!!!! We were post number 1

 

[dwheatl]

UM did you see the Diet Poopsie commercial today during football? It was real clips of players, coaches, etc, but with different dialogue about DP. My favorite was a player crying, saying, "Nobody asked me if I wanted a DP." It made me think of you.
