I am officially grounded until tomorrow. No way to change the date. What a day.

How frustrating.... Hang in there. At least it is only one day....

Yes, motor vehicles. No accident. Just a paperwork ERROR on their end...but it caused MY license to be suspended.

Good news--the fax was finally received by the state!
Bad news - they put tomorrow's date on it! And I need to drive TODAY.

I am officially grounded until tomorrow. No way to change the date. What a day.

TOTALLY UNacceptable! Tell them you're calling your attorney! If they screwed up, your license should not have been suspended in the first place!

 

[HockeyKat]

Am I the oldest one on here, I am 43, have to laugh about gray hairs, hubby was asking if (gretion for men) would work down below he is finding gray's and thinks it looks old.. Doesn't care there in his goattee.

I am 32. I have been going gray since I was 17. And yes, I am gray "down there" too, well, what of it that is left.

Yeah, this is why I remove that hair.

Okay, now that I've shared that! Weigh in! -3.2lbs! So I now have lost 59.8lbs. But we are not saying the big 6-0 yet. Don't want to jinx it.

My trainer...we planned to meet Monday, but he called to remind me it's a holiday (this was last week). OK, fine, how about Tuesday. I say sure. Then I call him back and say no, have to work Tuesday, how about Friday...and never hear from him. Called him yesterday and nothing. So maybe he did find out about my chocolate and wine lifestyle plan! I have never heard of a trainer that doesn't call back! I hope his kids are okay - or his inlaws - who are elderly and who I gather they take care of a bit. I plan to go to the gym Friday and if he's not there, just do a class.

OMG, Ms. Green just turned green again...I was saying I need to shop for a pair of pants, as the ones I bought about six weeks ago are loose, and she, who has now lost 8lbs on WW, was like, "well you have different standards for your clothes than I do. I can deal with loose clothes, they still fit." Well, darn right! I do have different standards - I want things to fit right! I don't want too big of clothes! I want to wear the size I fit into! And why wouldn't i?

Awesome!! I think by the time I get my rear end in gear and send you 14s, you will be ready for 12s... I was rather waiting until after WDW in case I needed them, but it may be too late...

You and I are practically the same size now. I was 171 as of this morning, which is still 5 lbs up from my pre-WDW weight, but so far I am pretty happy w/ the progress.

Uno, Dos, Tres, Quatro, Cinco, Cinco, Seis.

What did you ever do about your bathroom color?

KAT - calling on Kat. Where are you? Wilson?

I am here... just been busy today and been trying to post for a while now but keep getting interrupted so this may be disjointed.

Erika, that sucks!!!

Paula, . FWIW, I online dated when I was young and thin and it was no better. A lot of guys are just creeps.

I just read your post on the media, and such, and I definitely, totally agree.



I just did something for me, for once. I had made an appt at the Aveda Institute for tomorrow AM, and work wanted me to go to Wilson tomorrow, and I said I had an appt and would like to push to the afternoon and stood my ground on it.

Ain't that the truth.... many guys are creeps just as many women are what ever the equivalent term for creeps is... I guess I just never got the part about actually breaking things off instead of the I'll just stop all communications with her until she gets the message thing. I am an adult, if you don't want to continue things, have the balls to say so moron...

I'm sorry - I know you are finding this so incredibly frustrating, as I would if I were in your shoes...but...the whole thing has made me chuckle!

Right now I would be SUCH a happy little camper if someone told me that I must STAY HOME and not go anywhere! I'd be all like - nope. Can't go to that meeting. DMV won't let me. Nope, can't give you a ride, pick you up, take you back to school because you forgot your book, run you to the store 'cause you want something....nope. DMV says I gotta stay home...and perhaps cook dinner for my family for the first time in FOREVER it seems! I'd put on my comfy flannel pants, have a glass of wine or two....and to he** with the rest of the world!

Yup--if this had been tomorrow, for example, no problem! I have tons of crap that I would have loved to had the chance to get through. But today?!?! Aaargh missed a VERY important meeting on campus. Not good.

I am over it now. What is done is done. I will spend the evening getting caught up on what didn't get done during the day (while on the phone for countless hours). And then tomorrow it is back to normal.

And as soon as Jeff gets home, I am going out for a run. It will feel good. I couldn't even run earlier b/c I was too worried about missing a phone call.

 

[SeptemberGirl]

Even better...

BRITCHES are too big for YOU!

Nancy, that was hilarious and awesome!

OMG LIZ! I can't believe that great loss! Amazing! And I had an incident with my greenie as well.

I was complaining about my lack of loss regardless of exercise and she just said, "well, this is where you are meant to be...your body won't let you lose any more weight. This is it. It is not like you are ever going to get to your pre-kid weight." I was like, "thanks for the encouragement, green face!"

And I am not even trying to get to that weight. Just get rid of the SBF that is still there! And NO! SBF is never "supposed" to be there!

OMFG, I just want to smack her for that! How dare she! Way to be supportive! Sorry. My filter is sooo off these last few days (right, Kat?) I just keep coming out swinging on my friends' sides.

Deep breath. I'm sure she spoke from a place of discontent with her own body, and envy at yours. So just completely ignore her on this.

Love you for saying that....
Thanks...

BTW - who is Diana Vreeland... I'm intrigued...

Love you back! Diana Vreeland was a fashion editor, including of Vogue, and an American style icon and maker. Ages ago they had an exhibit at the Met (Museum of Art) in the Costume Institute and I went and became totally captivated with her. She was a trail blazer.

Stephanie - you are not the first one of my friends who are convinced that I am going to fall in love and marry either a lumberjack (remember I live with city folks who think that everyone in the north country is a lumberjack) or a medical researcher on the campus where my new project is. Here's hoping right???

Goof

I love the medical researcher idea...geeky and smart but funny. I can see it.

I am 32. I have been going gray since I was 17. And yes, I am gray "down there" too, well, what of it that is left.

I will NEVER see if I go gray there, as I will not allow it to be obvious! Wax, thank you!

Awesome!! I think by the time I get my rear end in gear and send you 14s, you will be ready for 12s... I was rather waiting until after WDW in case I needed them, but it may be too late...

That, also, was HI LAR IOUS and such a good perspective! I actually love being trapped in the house. There's something freeing about not being able to run around like a busy bee all the time. And also, it leaves more time for my wine and chocolate diet.

Okay, gang...you MUST get a copy of an article in the June issue of Allure. It's all about diets. It's interviews with five researchers who bust diet myths. Some of it we already know, but it's awesome. Read it at the nail salon today (mani/pedi, OPI's "Nice color, eh?") and wanted to steal it and make copies! But maybe we could just go to the library like normal folk, huh? It's worth sticking on your fridge to remind you of what you need to know!

 

[3DisneyKids]

OMG--I am wearing Nice Color, eh? right now as well. I have quite the OPI collection. You can get 'em cheap on eBay.

I would love to chat tonight, but I am so behind...again. *sigh* I got my run in...it wasn't pretty, but it is in the books.

That is just too funny! I've never even seen the color before today - just picked it out and thought it might be fun!

I resist buying nail polish, as I never do them at home anymore. I'd love to, but I need the set time at the salon to make it work - home has way more to distract me.

Have to work tonight, too. Sigh.

 

[Dizneydawn]

Ok..so the Tuppergoddess is home...I had a quick party...$500 in sales...3 recruits (including 1 man a Harley dude who is just loveable and a cute guy about 55 or so...not gorgeous cute but funny make ya pee your pants cute) and 5 parties...

I am sooooo proud of myself....really feel good about my job and my place making a difference in peoples homes... if I stay on pace I could just pull in over $100,000 this calendar year (may-may) and that my dear friends may not be a huge amount..but to work as little as I do..is a buttload..

I know how many times I have said I might quit...but the truth...if my income sucks it was because i sucked at working my business...accountability baby....



Ok - so Lyz.....I now need to go back to see the DMV reference..cause I am lame like that...

Liz - you are the fashionista...I will come to you to shop for me in a few...maybe have you fly here to shop at the Mall of America..

Goof - the smart@ss side of you I like...and I agree with the fasion crudola...i should have been born in the Rubenesque period...if rolls were sexy I would be d@mn hot...and poor EriKa would be stuffin Twinkies in...

Snuff - you are a treat to read..glad you stumbled your way here...

Snow - you are gonna get arrested just to get away...

EriKa - Bad boys Bad boys...whatcha gonna do....can I at least say I have a friend who evaded arrest???

Jod - I love you woman and am sooo proud of you....esp. today for not making up an excuse for Lyle....you and I have came a long way baby....

All hail the Tupperware Queen! That is so awesome, Dawn!

[grumpyyoungguy]

Hi All....

Sorry for my lack of posts. I took the long weekend as an opportunity to go and hide from the world at my parents' camp. It was just what I needed to get rid of stress. I think the most strenuous thing I did for the bulk of the weekend was lift a magazine. I didn't complete veer off course with my eating habits, but I didn't gorge myself either. Even with my walks and a round of golf (where I started to impress my dad and even the foursome behind us with some of my drives), I managed to gain 2.5 pounds this week... It was my fault since I baked apple bars for a friend's BBQ and a batch for my parents. The problem came when I couldn't walk past the pan without eating some.... Not my best effort, but I am not going to beat myself up over it. I am channeling Sarah and moving forward. I had actually contemplated skipping my Jenny Craig appointment tonight because I didn't want to face the scale, but I went and took my gain like a woman... I'll lose the 2.5 pounds soon enough...

I am frantically getting ready for my trip to Maryland (I leave on Friday) for the Odyssey of the Mind World Finals tournament. I am nervous about staying on plan since I have not been away for a week before. It will take some willpower to get through, but thankfully the schedule is so busy, there isn't much time to snack. I am bringing my laptop and my workout DVD's with me so I can keep up with you all and my walking. As Erika said - I am building momemtum here and don't want to stop now....

On a side note (and a slightly off topic one) - I am officially taking myself off the dating market. Unfortunatly, not for the reasons that I was hoping for... I am convinced that when guys see me or my picture, I must come across as a total freak of nature to them because it is that moment that scares them away and what was a good thing in conversation goes to utter silence. The whole thing is just too frustrating and too hard to take anymore. I never said that I would not lose weight to please a man (and I am not doing that now), but it appears that I am not that appealing the way I am now so why spend the money, the time and the aggrevation on a dating site without reaping any of the benefits. I guess I'll have more time to focus on my golf game.

Oh and Stephanie - my moving date to Saranac Lake is getting closer... They have identified a few replacements for me and are presenting them to the clients this week. Providing one of them is acceptable, it looks like I may be up there by the end of June...

Have a great night everyone...
Paula

I will preface this by saying I am tired so if I ramble please forgive me. I had planned on just lurking but when I read Paula's post I felt I must respond.

I have believed my size affected everything in my life. I was at my heaviest at 586 pounds. I believe I was passed over for jobs as well as denied for the other pleasures of life. I know that feeling projected on to others. If I continue to believe at 340 pounds that I have a barrier to things that I want then that perception comes through to others and those folks will react accordingly. I agree with Dawn in that I killed myself through food no different than a drug addict through cocaine. It all stems from self-hatred..and trying to cope where you don't think you fit in.

So Goof it is a fact that some men are @ssholes and can't see past their noses. Some people are just shallow because they are not secure in themselves. That is their issue. We have our own sh!t so don't add to your sh!t by taking theirs too.

At 39 I have learned there are several things in life that are NOT negotiable. For me they are 1. Love 2. Mutual respect 3. Trust 4. Fidelity 5. Common dreams. I have to say that I have found that in my life with Dawn and will NOT allow myself or anyone else to sabotage that. I love Dawn for the person that she is. Not on the surface but the real person she is. The happiness I feel has nothing to do with being satisfied with my outward appearance because I do not see my worth in that body. In fact I can not say that I am an attractive person. Rather I am happy because I know what love is...and I know that the woman I love will love me reagrdless of my body size. She loves me for who I really am. Goof I know that it is more difficult with society being the way it is to break in and allow people to know you. Trust me. Considering I was 586 pounds I understand almost anyone's pain in that arena. However, we can not give up on love. Love is the reason for life. I know that when Dawn and I talk about our weight it is not due to wanting sexier bodies. It is for the health that we would like to share so that we can be together longer and enjoy life as life is.

I feel more connected and spiritually uplifted by Dawn every day because she is a beautiful person both on the inside as well as her earthly body.

Do not give up !!! Open yourself to people from all walks to find your true love. Someone who will honor you for who you really are. There are men out there that would love to beg for your time. There are men who are scared to let anyone in or close to them because they have been hurt before. There are men who have been lied to, cheated on, etc... There are men out there who are ready to give up because they can not find their ideal woman. There are men who are just looking for a wonderful person like you to spend their life with and trust in love again.

Paula...we will not let you believe you are an undesirable...because you are not...

Please do not allow these close minded pitiful excuses for men control you. You are BETTTER than that and you know it as well as we do.

Hi Dan.... I miss you around here buddy....

Thanks for saying what you did and believe me, it is not falling on deaf ears. I am by no means giving up on my quest to find love, but merely giving up on this ludicris system of online dating. It is just not for me because I can't handle the rejection I am getting from it anymore. It was starting to make me feel badly about myself and frankly, I am better than that.

Believe me, I am not giving up hope that there is a great guy out there for me. Despite my contemporary nature, I am still an old fashioned romantic at heart. I just haven't met him yet and like you said, I need to keep myself open to the idea of meeting him. I truly believe that God has a plan for me and it is up to me to listen for the signs that point me towards fulfilling that plan. So, until my hope for love is completely decimated (may that never happen), I will always be open to the idea of love because you are right, what else is life for?

OK - I'll stop being all philosophical now....

Thanks for all of the support. It really does mean a great deal to me to know that there are folks out there who care.

Paula

 

[Dizneydawn]

Dan what a beautiful post!

Dawn you have a great guy!

Thanks and that was a nice post...I was just blabbering about him not understanding that I don't have many clothes that fit right now because I refuse to by size 22/24 and blah blah blah....pity party...which ended with..."You don't understand..."

And he was raw enough to point out he does understand...that at 6'6 and almost 600 pounds it wasn't that he did not have anything in his closet that fits...but that he couldn't even go to a store to buy anything that would fit...that the things would have to be tailored and made...

The pity party stopped and I believe that was a huge motivator to get moving...I do not want that to be my life...and I do not want to feel like this anymore...

BTW: I will start posting every darn thing I can about weight loss that comes my way...
I still get WW info on the e-mail daily...thought this was interesting..it's about stopping for gas at convenience stores and how to avoid convenience pit falls like munchies and fast food.

http://info.weightwatchers.com/cgi-bin9/DM/y/elgX0OkDvZ0bkE0EjYU0EZ


I also thought some might like to try the pumpkin-sausage soup..so here it is...please give it a try...it tates nothing like pumpkin and is sooooo good guys...(EriKa...I am sure you could use Boca meat or something in place of the sausage...I forget..do you eat dairy??? Fish???

Can we all start posting good low cal/carb foods or recipies...any info makes me a better person...and I love me some recipies

Low-Carb Pumpkin & Sausage Soup
A delicious autumnal soup. Use a butternut squash puree if you prefer. You probably want to hide the leftovers of this soup if you are including it in your pouch test - or your spouse and kids will gobble it up when you are not looking.

16 ounces country style sausage
1/2 cup onions, minced
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
1 cup fresh mushrooms, chopped
15 ounces pumpkin, canned
5 cups low sodium chicken broth
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup water

Over medium heat brown the sausage breaking into small bits. Drain fat. Add the onion, garlic, Italian seasoning and mushrooms and saute until vegetables are cooked.

Add the canned pumpkin and the broth, stirring to mix well. Cook at a low simmer for 20-30 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in heavy cream, sour cream and water.

Servings: 8

Notes: Per 1-cup serving: 376 calories. 15 grams protein, 32 grams fat (14 saturated) and 9 grams carbohydrate (2 grams dietary fiber). Rich in Vitamin A, Thiamin and B12 and one serving has 63mg of calcium.

A stranger was seated next to a little girl on an airplane when the stranger turned to the little girl and said, "let's talk". I've heard that flights go quicker if you strike up a conversation with a fellow passenger.

The little girl, who had just opened her book, closed it slowly and said to the stranger, "What would you like to talk about?"

"Oh I don't know, How about nuclear power?" said the stranger while smiling.

"Ok" she said. "That could be an interesting topic. But first let me ask you a question. A horse, a cow, and a deer all eat the same stuff-grass. Yet a deer excretes pellers, a cow turns out a flat patty, and a horse produces clumps of dried grass. Why do you suppose that is?"

The stranger suprised by the little girl's intelligence, thinks about it and says, "hmmm I have no idea." To which the little girls replies, " Do you really think you are qualified to discuss nuclear power when you don't know
sh!t !?"

Morning all!

Just returned from Kelly's graduation. It was beautiful. She even spoke and recited a poem! Yes, pics are forthcoming.

Jeff is working from home...which we both hate. He says he can't get anything done due to all of the "distractions" (and I am like, um...I work from home all day, every day.... ). And then he asks me to make lunch or do this for him or that for him...so I get frustrated and tell him the HE is my distraction when trying to get work done at home. It doesn't usually go well. He is on his run now and then I will head out.

Ok...lots to do. GREAT posts this morning! I will try come back in later for a proper response.

A stranger was seated next to a little girl on an airplane when the stranger turned to the little girl and said, "let's talk". I've heard that flights go quicker if you strike up a conversation with a fellow passenger.

The little girl, who had just opened her book, closed it slowly and said to the stranger, "What would you like to talk about?"

"Oh I don't know, How about nuclear power?" said the stranger while smiling.

"Ok" she said. "That could be an interesting topic. But first let me ask you a question. A horse, a cow, and a deer all eat the same stuff-grass. Yet a deer excretes pellers, a cow turns out a flat patty, and a horse produces clumps of dried grass. Why do you suppose that is?"

The stranger suprised by the little girl's intelligence, thinks about it and says, "hmmm I have no idea." To which the little girls replies, " Do you really think you are qualified to discuss nuclear power when you don't know
sh!t !?"

Holy cr@poly...for once I thought you were funny....I actualy giggled ya dork...

Morning all!

You were home all day...and that is when I wanted to dump his dinner on his clean pile of clothes on the vaccumed floor next to the bathroom that was shiny and the table minus dust.... we need a bop on the head smiley... Kat can you get on that...oh no...that is right...you are getting your hair done...much tooo busy....
