I haven't read all the other replies, but here are my thoughts. What you see in your head will ultimately be what you are on the outside. So, even if you've lost this weight, if you can't change your mental image, you run the serious risk of gaining it back. Here's what I suggest. Every...

I hope you didn't answer his personal questions. When someone starts asking me questions that I feel are personal, I become very vague with my answers or simply say, "Oh, I don't think we need to talk about that." With a smile on my face. And then I immediately change the subject. So...

I remember hearing that death symbolizes rebirth in a dream, like you are starting a new page in your life, but I'm not sure if that means a rebirth for the person who dreamed about the death or for the person who was the object of the death. I think it's for the dreamer. And perhaps her...

I heard a while back that you aren't supposed to re-use plastic bowls in the microwave. Something about the chemicals in the plastic breaking down as it's heated and then leaching into the food. What I heard said you should only re-use ceramic or glass (microwave-safe) in the micro. So, I...

Look into food allergies. I discovered in the past 6 months that I've been allergic to gluten and dairy for years. As soon as I cut out gluten, my lower tummy started coming back around. And then when I cut out dairy (just recently), it flattened even more. Gluten is in a lot more than...

I have four cats and 1 dog, and each one comes complete with their own funny stories: Our dog, Gizmo, is an energetic Jack Russell/Beagle/Coon hound mix. If she hears a doorbell on TV, she will sometimes think it's ours and take off barking bloody murder at the door. And if I say, "Who's...

Hee hee! I'm sneaky like dat! At any rate, I hope you all eat more veggies now. All hail Zip-n-Steam!

I bet you all thought I was gonna say Ziploc Zip-n-Steam bags are carcinogenic or something, didn't you, after the whole aspartame debacle on "that other" thread. :7 :+ :P

I gave up on sunless tanners a long time ago, because all the ones I tried had an odor, and I'm EXTREMELY sensitive to scents and fragrances. And you can't just wash this stuff off because it gets into your skin and smells all the rest of the day. You have a reaction to this just once and...

I've recently discovered Ziploc's Zip-n-Steam bags, and while I prefer to actually "cook", these bags are great at work when I want a nice side of veggies that didn't get re-heated in the microwave from last night's leftovers. One of my favorite veggies to steam are LBBT's (Little Bitty Baby...

RE: Maybe the Thanks, sparrow. That's a great emoticon! :7 Laughed right out loud, I did!

In all honesty, I was on vacation in the Smoky Mountains with my hubby and we were staying in a cabin (surrounded by other cabins). Our cabin had the "vista view", though, and people invariably walked right through "our property" and stood right by our cabin to see the view. Uh, peeps, if you...

Well, LauraMax, you know how I am with "meatheads" in the gym, so you know my answer. Confront the dude. Smack him around. Get up in his face and ask him if he enjoyed the show. Say, "Take a picture, man, it'll last longer. How would like it if I peeping-tommed you, Looky-Lou?" Okay...

I'm in Carmel. Can be found working out at the Monon Center about 3 nights a week. Ill-advisedly fighting meatheads. :7

RE: Maybe the Die, thread, die!!!!!

A tablespoon or so of garlic hummus on a Sesame Tahini rice cake. That's my new favorite snack. Yummy!

Like I said, he walked away after his set. Not one to wait around for someone else to grow a brain, I did what I needed to do, short of moving his bench for him, to begin my exercises. For whatever reason, I thought it a better choice to let him move his own stuff once he returned. And, like...

This might get kinda long, but it should provide a little entertainment for everyone. Last night, hubby and I went to the gym. It was chest & shoulders night. After doing 25 min. of cardio and our drop sets of pushups, I head over to the benches while my hubby gets a sip of water. Some...

RE: Maybe the Well, as the OP, I purposely stayed away all day today. Some of the responses I got about this really upset me and I didn't want to put myself through anymore torture, but someone emailed me and said a few of you came in voicing support, so I thought I'd see what had transpired...
