Hey everybody! People are going WELL on here! Yay!! I am not getting much of anywhere. But I am fitting more comfortably in my clothes now...they were getting a little tight there after christmas. I've been doing the whole no-sugar thing for over a month now. I caved in and ate some...

My hair is very curly and thick, although not as bad as it used to be (I had the white girl 'fro going on!). It's also mouse brown, which I highlight blonde, which does well for it - gives it texture and some dimension. It's also in longer layers, a bit longer than my shoulders. Right now I am...

Hi everybody! I have been away for so long...I am truly sorry. I have been feeling crappy, and also busy. It sounds like many of you are moving forward towards goals...YAY!! Keep it up!!! And one piece of choc. or candy every once in while probably won't hurt, if you can keep it to one. I...

THank you. I won't give up, at least not yet. I do need to be good for the rest of the day, however. Hmmm...tasty water......actually, it's not bad, but no substitute for chocolate! But, BE STRONG Sylorna!!! You can do it! Ok, back to work. Can't nosh while singing or stringing a guitar!

I got a cheap one at a discount store, and it wasn't very accurate. I'm guess mid-range price ones would be better. Remember to measure your stride.

AAAAACK! I JUST HAD SOME PEANUT BUTTER CUPS _ TWO OF THEM!!!! I FEEL A BINGE COMING ON!!!!! Oh, and I did so well yesterday. Sounds like many of you are doing better than my distractable a*s. OK, I'm not bingeing. No no no. Thinking of best friends' wedding in July...thinking of bikini...

I bit the bullet on the credit card thing - this just happened to me last week, my first CC payment. What else can you do, really?? I guess you have to give up some money to make some money. You can reflect that 3% in your auction price or in shipping. I upped all of my auction prices a bit...

I think you should talk about it too. At least then you could get an explanation. Even if her plans don't change to include you, at least you would know why..even if she just didn't think (which sometimes we all do, make big gaffes). It's very important to just pose it as a question, and not...

Hello!! I'm IN!! I do not have a whole lot to lose, but it's funny how the years pass and one just gets bigger and bigger... This involves two commitments. 1. Actually logging in to this site daily or so and reporting. 2. Actually being accountable for my diet and exercise. Really, it's a...

They are like kids, and right now I have one that's still got feline acne, after weeks of treatment, and one that's still sneezing, and my baby cat is HYPER, and somebody keeps puking up hairballs... It is easy to feel helpless when there is so much going on, and esp. since I work during the...

Lioness and jamasmom - Thank you so much for your advice! I had no idea about FHV until you suggested it, and when I looked it up - it sounds like the two of them! I have never heard of this before, and I will try some of the things you mentioned. I am looking into a olive-leaf extract...

Hey everybody..it has been a while since I've been on here, and I am again reminded WHY I should keep up with it! I've got two immunocompromised cats, Noble and Edgar. Noble does pretty well, all things considered, with a chronic URI. He is generally very healthy, and only occasionally has a...

Have you tried refined shea butter? It really seems to help my husband, who has dry, scaly, cracking feet issues. I also swear by it to help one's dry spots all over the place - I recently discovered it. It is REALLY expensive in stores, but PM me if you want to get it on ebay for much cheaper...

One of my cats is a spazz too - he doesn't really trust my husband. I've found that it comes and goes, even though my husband does everything he should. Some cats are just like that - esp. those who have been abused, and (I'm guessing here) socialized ferals. My cat in question was rescued...

Although I am not vehemently against milk-drinking (although I do see that point), I don't drink milk. I do not drink ANYTHING from the container in which I bought it, unless it is a single-serve thing. Ewwwww germs and congealed spit... My husband, on the other hand, does it whenever he can...

It's good he's feeling better - As long as he's showing some improvment, I wouldn't do anything differently than you have been. That pumpkin thing apparently works. As far as the vet goes, time for another one! There are vets out there that are very callous when it comes to pet care - often...

One of my eyes is actually half green and half blue, but it's gotten fainter over the years. My eyes change a lot too, and throughout the course of my life so far they've been blue, green, and back to blue again. My eyes are something my husband loves about me on a physical level.

I think many of us have been in the same situation as you are. I'm a bit older than you, and I'm married, but my social structure has shrunken over the past two years. All of a sudden, my "friends" were no longer returning my calls. I was starting to think they were making pretty dumb...

Congratulations, y'all!! Planning a wedding can be quite a bit of fun, and some stress! I'm not much of an expert on planning, though, since my wedding was very very small and I actually wasn't too excited about planning. Let me tell you what was exciting, however - we got married a year ago in...

Why oh why do I have such a great husband and home life and suddenly my job begins to suck??? I love music therapy, yes, but I HATE the politics we play in this department!!!!! Why is it that people in the helping professions can be some of nastiest people I know? Better yet, why is being...
