Omega's got your answer to question's 5 and 6 - no reason why that it can't apply - it's no different that a college essay - just a little poetic licence and it's accurate.. .ever do a charity project? just because it's not on your resume -doesn't mean it's not valuable...

I have been involved in charity work--just never in charge. I've always shirked the responsibility..lol. I am on the Advertising Council of my company, though--but it's in no way a leadership position. I just have to go to meetings (got one tomorrow) every few months and put in my 2 cents worth..:sifone:

I hated college essays..lol. I'm not good a bullshitting about myself. I tend to play down my accomplishments, and that is usually not good in a job application/interview.

Two different people walking two different paths... Doesn't make either one of you wrong or right -just different... Too bad it wasn't discovered before you did the I Do's but - I don't gets you out and on with your life.

I can relate a lot to how your husband is - because I have much of the same properties - and it's quite difficult to change a person -unless they want to change... and change isn't easy when it's the only thing you know...

You tried your best to make it work -and it didn't... what's next :)
you're going to the foreign service :)

Are you an aquarius by any chance?? lol

I'm still not sure if it's over or not. It seems to be dragging on forever. If H were a total bastard, it would make my decision easy. However, he is a pretty nice, good guy who has some very good qualities. We are just two VERY different people. He is cerebral, I'm emotional. I have things I want in life that I don't think he can provide, and vice versa. I dunno. We are going to talk it out tonight. I swear to God we will!!

you doon't have to give them the website or reveal your secret identity -just explain the challenge set up the recruiting of the players of the game - the setting of the rules and the goals of the challenge and the active participation...

That is true, however, a quick search on google would be all it took for them to figure it out. That is what concerns me.
 
I agree, you dont want to give any inkling where they could read up on you online. That would be a total disaster. I would stick to the WL without the challenge too. Well?! What happened w/ H? Did yall talk or what. Hope you're having a nice evening Star :).

you don't use your real name on line.. how would they know it was you

I use Kimberly--my real name. And Bikinibound is in charge of the challenge, check out my diary, and you can easily piece together everything. There don't seem to be that many weight loss forums out there, so it's not like they'd have craploads to sort through.
 
Well, here's the latest. Due to H's bad day yesterday at work and our conversations last night, he slept terribly. I felt bad and slightly guilty, so I called him to check up on him to see how he was. He laughed it off as usual. Then he called me on my cell when he came home tonight and I wasn't there. I had to work and we talked nicely on the phone. I think he was happy I called this morning. When I got home tonight we talked about a lot of stuff. He is more upset about what happened at work yesterday than he wants to let on, but I can tell. So I listened to him talk about that (mainly him telling stories of co-workers who'd have similar things happen to them) b/c I knew it was his way of getting it off his chest. He's got the next 5 days off, so that will be good for him.

Then I mentioned a few things that had been weighing on me, and he honestly wants to work things out--and he assured me it's not b/c I'm familiar and he's attached to me like his crappy old Korean apt..lmao. SIGH....I told him that our ways of communicating are very different and that is a reason why we tend to have a lot of misunderstandings that lead to arguements. He agreed. And of course I told him that the job thing had to change soon. He is reading that book, "What color is your parachute." He said he'll finish it this weekend. Ok, so I've decided to give him until the first of the year--and if nothing's changed, then it is OVER. I swear it!! Really...lmao.:banghead:
 
Exercise this week:
11/19—None, weight: 226.5
11/20—30 min circuit training, 10 min exercise bike, 3.8 miles biked, weight: 227.5

Food for Tuesday:
1,636 calories, 78g fat 45%, 94g net carbs 24%, 121g protein 31%, 20g fiber

Food for Monday:
1,903 calories, 82g fat 41%, 152g net carbs 33%, 120g protein 26%, 35g fiber

I've got to fit in 110 min of exercise before Saturday. I've kinda been slacking off this week. But 110 min in 3 days is just under 40min a day. I can do that. I'm hoping the scale is down tomorrow. I'm up 2lbs from my lowest weight. :leaving:
 
Hi Kimberly

I am pleased that he seems to be listening to you a bit. Maybe there is hope. Have you tried going to marriage guidance councelling together? Do you think that he might agree to go? Is there any chance that it could help? I was thinking that it might help him to focus that you seriously mean what has been said.

I think that your gym is an ideal answer for question 2.

I can understand your concerns about bringing the forum to their attention. There is an element of wisdom in the likes of Mal remaining totally anonamous.
I suppose it has been known for diaries to be deleted and / or edited - but I could understand you not wanting to do that.

The bottom line is that you have questions 5 and 6 still to answer and a deadline for getting it in.

Managing and dealing with change can take place in any walk of life - and not only in the workplace. By the way - one of the best speakers on the subject in my book is Chris Moon - who is a definite hero of mine. Google the name if you havent heard of him.

Good luck in getting everything sorted out.
Take care
Love
Margaret

We spent 2 months going to marriage counseling. It didn't seem to have much effect. H agreed that some things need changing, but he still hasn't made any changes. I have thought about starting up again...just don't know if it's even worth the trouble.

James:
What sort of circuit training are you into, Kim?
Click to expand...

It's Kimberly, Jim..haha. I do a Curves-type workout. It's not a franchise, but the workout is very similar to Curves. Don't bother telling me I should be doing free weights instead..lol. I know that. But for the moment, this fits my budget and means. I am thinking about changing gyms in Jan. when my membership is up. :)
