DISappearing Peeps...Vol. 3! All are Welcome!

[ArielSRL]

Well, I'm +1.4, but I knew I would be due to AF and giving in to AF cravings. I think I will be down next week. The weather is so beautiful here right now. If it continues, I'll be outside walking as much as I can.

I am interested in seeing "He's Just Not That Into You" because of the cast - I too love Big Love and Ginnifer Goodwin - but I hadn't heard good things about it. I recently saw "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" and absolutely LOVED it. Probably going to see "Gran Torino" tomorrow as I have heard it is excellent and I think we will go there for part of our date (then watch the Pro Bowl, as we are both sports lovers).

As for the guy, we actually went out last night as well. Last minute kind of thing; I was in the mood for margaritas, so he offered to take me out. Things seem to be going well.

lynda (and anyone else who responded - i can't remember who and i forgot to quote you) - thanks for the thoughts on the twilight movie. it's not playing anywhere near me so i guess i'm going to have to wait for the DVD next month. probably a good thing anyway since i'm sure i'll want to comment during the movie and i HATE it when people talk in the theater! i'm into "new moon" now and i cannot believe what edward has done. i'm so sad for bella!!!!!

OH! I remember being so upset while reading that book, but after reading all of them, I look back and think, that book was really good! I want to go back and read it again.

On the subject of Twilight - Kelly - LOVE the signature picture!!!

Isn't it fabulous! I think this might be a new favourite 'Edward Look' for me!

personally i like it better like this....

just a little joke.

although i will say i've been watching a lot of twilight interviews on youtube now that i've read the first book and i don't think i like kristin stewart very much. she seems very ungrateful and snooty and just seems like she doesn't want to be doing any interviews whatsoever. i know she's supposedly shy or whatever but c'mon - you signed up to be an actress. you're an idiot if you think that you don't have to promote your movies. just put on a smile and get over it.

i went jogging today - it's 65 degrees here! it was the first time in awhile i haven't had to breathe through a scarf while i'm jogging! i know it won't last though. i'm so ready for spring it's pathetic!

oh, and i saw an interview with kate winslet last night that made me smile. she was talking about her back side and how she's just going to love it no matter what from now on. i was like YOU GO GIRL!!!! i will see if i can find it and if so i'll post it here.

 

[punkin413]

i couldn't find a video but i found the quote. it was an interview with cynthia mcfadden on nightline on ABC.

----------------------------------------------------

"I don't know a single woman who doesn't stand up and check the tushie before she walks out the door," she said. "I've decided I am going to start loving my backside, really just saying, yes. Because I don't know anyone who does that, you know? And for my daughter, I want to be able to say to her, I love this.

Dawn thats MUCH better!

Im not a huge Kristin Stewart fan to be honest - liked her in the film but found the same thing when watching interviews - come on, make an effort! Did you see the pics of her a while back smoking something a little suspect on her front steps? Now each to their own, but not the best thing to be doing in full view of the paparazzi when you're in a huge film!

Hi all, gone back to weighing myself on a Sunday again as I am always lightest, and mentally I need to see that! Don't think Aaran has done the chart yet, so will post today rather than waiting for Friday . . . I am -1.7!!! VERY happy!! The scales had beeen on go-slow all week since my birthday meal and I was in despair - screamed the house down with excitement this morning!

Sorry to hear about individuals problems - will answer individually soon! Been busy all week but have been reading posts. Finally gave in after listening to you all talking about it and bought the Twilight book . . . now I have to try avoid whenever you mention it! I DO like the look of that picture you have in your signature DisneyGalUk - incentive to get reading!!!

Off to see "He's not that into you" this afternoon" so glad to see the good reviews - am treating myself to a bar of chocolate to take. Bliss!

I remember saying to myself Oh dear she's gonna go with Jacob - she can't I say can't.

I said this before. I saw her on an interview with Good Morning America and she was like bothered by all the fans that were there for her and Robert. I think she was good in the movie but when you have a picture in your mind of what a character looks like - she's not what I imagined.

Hey Peeps!

Sorry I am MIA lately..I have a huge work schedule this semester, I took less classes last semester becasue of the wedding and this semester I'm paying for it. We also have been looking to buy a home so that has been exhausting our weekends.

It's going to be such a weird adjustment when we finally do move to nj, I'm so use to living in the city its going to be weird when we move to the country lol, but its time to start growing up...we can't raise a family in the city I want our kids to have a backyard..it's sad a little boy on my floor rides his bike in the hallway after I saw that I knew it was time to grow up and make the switch

Gina ....did you decide on a honeymoon spot yet?

Dawn..did you make reservations for dinner in NYC yet? (I think it's probably 2 early most restaurants wont let you make reservation until a month out)

i think you're making the right decision. don't get me wrong...i love the city. but just to visit. i LOVE living in the country. but your defnition of country and mine are probably very different. the town i live in has a kroger, a food lion, fast food and about 3 privately-owned restaurants and that's it! but i love it because i have my own space and it's quiet and our school system is the best in georgia. plus i'm like 5 minutes from the interstate and once i hop on that it's only 20 minutes and i'm at one of the best mall areas in the state. i'm sure you'll love having more space - plus you'll be close enough to NYC to visit often!

that poor kid with his bike in the hallway! that makes me sad.

we haven't made any reservations yet. we've booked the hotel and flight and we've bought tickets for wicked but that's it so far. i have a list of restaurants we're looking at that i compiled from your recommendations and all the others i got from different people. we can't go out to eat at a nice place EVERY day we're there because we're on a budget (especially my sister who's fresh out of college) but we'll have a few nice meals. i can't wait!

 

[punkin413]

I remember saying to myself Oh dear she's gonna go with Jacob - she can't I say can't.

i'm on the part right now where he's fixing the bikes she got. he seems nice but he's too nice. i like edward better (so far)! i saw some t-shirts at cafepress.com that say CULLEN 17 on them - i thought about getting one but i need to save money right now.

Hey Lauren,....no we have not!!! We still have to meet with a travel agent, the first one i tried to contact has been TERRIBLE about getting back to me, so i am not even going to bother with her. I think we will go to AAA this weekend and see what they can tell us/offer us! Maui is looking like a top choice though!!


I am feeling better today..made it to work thankfully! i still have a very small appetite, which sounds like a good thing, but its annoying because i am so weak and tired!! ah well..won't be earning activity points this week!

Hi Lauren. . . how are you getting on with Charlean Extreme? My DH and I moved on to the Push section tonight. Our SelecTech weights also arrived today and the combined result has got Tony's and my arms shaking so bad that neither of us can drive tonight and i can barely type! OMG I feel well worked out! I went up to 22lb on one of the leg exercises - I never in my life thought I would lift a weight that heavy!!

Thats so sad about the little boy on his bike. I understand why it will be hard to leave - I have only been to NewYork twice and I found it impossible to leave - I just loved it!

WOW 22lbs! I am so jealous you got the select techs..I want them but they are expensive

I am on my 4th week of the burn program I lost 5 pounds this month and lost an inch of my thighs, abducters, and waist..lost 1.5 off of both my arms and 1/2 inch of my arms..everyone keeps asking me if I am losing weight

although I am frustrated because it was weight I gained from the wedding I need to lose another 5 pounds to get back to that weight before I am totally satisfied

We decided to get them once DH started doing the programme as well. In a month we had already had to buy 3 additional sets of dumbbells for him and that was before even getting on to the Push section where you have to go heavier. The whole house was just full of weights! Select Techs are a silly price, but we found some cheapish on Ebay (all those people who's new years resolutions are slipping already!!) so keep an eye out!

Wow you have done really well with your inches! I am aching for my thighs to vanish!!!!!!!!

 

[WI_DisneyFan]

Three weeks in a row of being a samer. This is getting ridiculous!

Hope everyone is having a good week!

 

[dwheatl]

Thanks Aaron, for posting that. I feel so tempted to eat off program right now.

To everyone, thanks for the good wishes. I went in today for the biopsy, and it went better than I could have imagined. The doctor said I have an incredible number of cysts, but no solid mass, so nothing to biopsy. He aspirated a few of the big ones, which means under my arm is like a pin cushion (there are at least 20 holes there), but definitely not malignant, so whoop-de-doo!

To those who are worried about their own health or that of a loved one, you are in my prayers every day, but you were especially on my mind today.

So close!

I posted this on the TB, but I would like some adult/parent opinions too.

So we have penpals from the elementry school (2nd grade) for this school club.
I got this really nice girl she loves hanging out with me when we visit.
Well today I learned that she was moving in 2 weeks. She really wanted to see me more so she wrote down her adress and phone number.
Now I was afraid of this because I didn't know what her mom would say and since I'm in highschool I have a lot of things I have to do and can't hang out with her all the time.
Well I gave her my number so she could call every once in awhile because I know I wouldn't call as often as she'd like or I'd forget. I was afraid her mom would be mad but she didn't and about 20 minutes after I got home she called me.

She wants me to come over and play with her. First she asked for me to come over tonight and then tomorrow. Both times I told her I was busy and maybe some other time.
I don't know her parents and neither does my mom and she doesn't think hanging out at her house would be a good idea because I don't know what her family is like.
I wouldn't feel comfortable visiting her but I don't want to hurt her feelings, or what to tell her.
I've thought about having her find a day, perhaps Friday, at a certain time when she could call me and talk to me for about 10 minutes about her week.
Like I said I have many things to take care of and I don't want her being sad that I didn't answer the phone because I was busy and being interrupted while I was doing something important. I also don't feel comfortable with her calling me up whenever she pleases just for the fact I've only visited with her four times and it just feels strange to me for some reason.

I've thought about telling her that we should just go back to being penpals and instead of through the school that I could continue to talk with her in letters, especially because she's moving instead of on the phone. I'm just kinda split.

If it was your child how would you rather their penpal tell them?

Any thoughts? Advice? Thanks!

I would definitely go back to letters. Second graders have a hard time respecting personal space. Maybe let her parents know how much she wants a friend. Maybe they can help her find someone in her own age group after the move.
