Wait, have you and my wife been talking!?! She does that all the time! I don't know how many times I've had to tell her the exact same thing your husband told you. And you say men are hard to figure out...
Welcome aboard!
..its actually a really good work out if you get into it ...
Speaking of A., we had some nice moments today. He seemed to be in a much better mood. Caught him starting at me too during our lunch break
Hi everyone~
Sorry I don't have much time to read through all the posts from today, but I will catch up tomorrow
Punkin-just wanted to say thanks for the chicken recipe. I didn't have a chance to cook it yet, I tried another recipe for "Mexican Chicken" from the SouthBeach website, but I will try yours tomorrow.
Hope everyone had a great day! Talk to you soon.
I read into EVERYTHING!
And, yes, I will finally have my Master's in April in speech language pathology.
Amen sister..i know the feeling of being the "big fat bridesmaid"..i am in a wedding in Sept..and i am by far going to be the biggest of the bunch, the bride is a 2 and the other girls are from 0-6...not me of course. I am doing my best to look decent in my much bigger sized dress but I have a constant fear that i will stick out like a sore thumb..and this, i conceded, will be the last big EVENT that i will feel this way..hence joining this thread and getting real about exercise, weight loss and overall health..you are in the RIGHT place

Hi peeps! Hope you're all having a great day!!
It's a scorcher here today. Better plan on indoor exercise.
Still hanging in with eating healthy this week -- yesterday cals were 1397 (and that included a piece of hubby's birthday ice cream cake - so not bad)
Had brown rice/spinach/feta cheese casserole for dinner last night - super tasty and an excellent meatless meal.
Hope everybody is doing well -- take care of yourself today!!
I meant to ask yesterday, does anyone here watch H E double Hockey sticks Kitchen?? ( trying not to get the dreaded censor astericks! ***) The finale is next Monday and I am actually pretty into it..thank you Tivo for allowing yet another show into my life

Yes, IM a HUGE FAN!! i love that show...been watching all three season. I can not decide who i want to win... i like them both but i feel like Rock came from a tougher background, so maybe he deserves it more. It seems like bonnie might just have had a lot handed to her. But i really like the both of them, so its gonna be a tough call. Cant wait to watch the season finale!
..results not till Monday though i guess..boo to that!Nice..i knew there would be other "watchers"
I am rooting for Rock. I do like them both, but i really feel that Rock would, pardon the pun " ROCK" at running a restaurant, and his kids are so super cute!! Bonnie does slightly give off the "spoiled" vibe, but she's ok. I liked Julia alot actually, and think its awesome that Chef Ramsey is paying for her to go to culinary school..i would LOVE that!
So you think you can dance is on tonight

But I find it frustrating that sizes for that type of dress have to be different than sizes for everything else. 
Where is everyone tonight?
Did everyone know that tonight was National Night Out Against Crime? Basically local law enforcement agencies hold community events tonight to "unite" against the criminals. Hard to explain. Anyway, since my mom works at our police dept., she helped plan some of it so she had to attend. They had lots of military personnel and police officers and I just LOVE a man in uniform.
So that was my evening. Now onto a couple small vents...
1) I called my internship site to set up a meeting for next week. They want me to shadow a clinician for the day before I start. No biggie. Then the secretary tells me that on my 1st day I have to administer an evaluation at 4 and a client at 5-5:30. Well, aside from me panicking that I have to dive right in on my 1st day...there is another even bigger problem. I have class at 5:30. And my internship is a good 45-55 minutes from school, especially at that hour.Luckily it got much better.
2) I've mentioned a girlfriend I have at school. We're not super close but we do talk outside of school and we have a few classes together. Anyway, she was the only one who knew about A. and I. That I liked him and then that we went out on a date. A couple days after our 1st date, I decided that she was just way too annoying to talk to about A. and I couldn't take her constant nitpicking of everything we did. So I told her I just didn't want to talk about it to anyone. But she kept asking me how he and I were doing. So I told a fib and said that I was over it and not dating him anymore at all, and that I was getting over him, didn't like him anymore. Well, for a week, she called me twice to ask me how I was doing, how am I handling things, that she understands if I'm upset, etc.
As far as she is concerned, we went out on one (really great) date! It's not like we were engaged going out for months. What is the deal. We weren't ever (and still aren't) even a real couple. I mean, this has gone above and beyond just being nice and seeing how I'm doing. What do I have to tell her to get her to realize that A. and I are fine. I even spun it so that she wouldn't think he was a jerk to me. I don't want to make him look bad for something he didn't do. This girl is so frustrating.
Speaking of A., we had some nice moments today. He seemed to be in a much better mood. Caught him starting at me too during our lunch break. This morning our prof took attendance and asked us all a question about yesterday's material to "test" us. Well, she gets to A. and says how serious he always is in class, especially when speaking. So then I follow him alphabetically by about 2 people. So then it is my turn and she says good morning and I tell her the same and she says that I'm "another serious one". "A. and Shannon are my 2 serious ones". Anyway, I was just holding my breath, praying that she didn't make a joke about how we should go out with each other or something because I would have lost it. It sounded like she was going to move in that direction.
So anyway, that was my day...another long day of cleft palate and craniofacial anomalies tomorrow! Have a good night everyone!
But that's a secret

Soooo? Sweetie, how are you. Really? JUST KIDDING!!!
I am secretly hoping you two will end up together.
I"M FINE!!! 
[Dene?? Were you abducted by Date #3 or did it go THAT well.
)... I am going out with him again Friday to a play... just in case I accidentally missed the spark.
)
... DD19 is taking them with me... I could have just done a refresher course, but I don't know where any of my paperwork is (haven't done and open water dive in 22ish years)... plus, taking it with DD. Dude! I forgot how $$$ all that gear can be!
You know, some days when I don't want to exercise or I want to eat bad, and this will embarrass her, but I think of Dene. The dedication and courage that it takes to lose 110 lbs... well, it helps keep me on track. So thanks Dene!!
Thanks... y'all keep me going, too. And I love that you play hockey... something active, but not necessarily in a gym or that "everybody" does... that's part of why I joined the outdoor group and signed up for scuba, might as well have fun and meet new people while I exercise! ).
Good for you Dene!!!!
I can't imagine purposely doing ACTIVITIES! I want to be like that!
You are my hero!!!!
I just take little 10 minute breaks and jump on the tread mill. I cuss and swear the whole time...BUT I DO IT!!

Good for you! You cuss and swear now, but before long, you might actually find yourself wanting to do it more. As much trouble as I have getting myself to do it in the first place, once I get into the routine, I miss it if I don't do it.
